Popcorn and Sunshine

Monday, November 28, 2011 Posted in family sessions, signature session

An afternoon with a lovely family…they were so comfortable with themselves. It was truly a treat to see their good natured teasing and laid back home. With their eldest child being in grade 12 it seemed like time to document their family life before they all graduated into the next lovely chapter. I came home from this session and said to Bob…this is the family I hope for. When our kids are teenagers. This ease…this friendship…this love.

Short and Sweet in Okotoks

Thursday, November 24, 2011 Posted in family sessions, short and sweet sessions

When a family books a Short and Sweet session, I always ask what they want to focus on–like just the kids or a family image. Like most moms, this mom wanted a nice family shot, but she wanted a few of just her and her hubby. That made me so happy. Many moms ask to be in the images as little as possible which makes me sad…I was so happy to create a few of these two together

We are hoping to have a session out at their cabin this summer!!! I love doing sessions at places that are special to a family and can’t wait for that one

Happy American Thanksgiving everyone!

Short and Sweet Sisters

Tuesday, November 22, 2011 Posted in family sessions, short and sweet sessions

There were supposed to be sweaters…because it should have been cold. But–Alberta weather is nothing if not unpredictable so it ended up being unseasonably warm. Not that we’re complaining.

Three beautiful sisters and a ladybug or two…or a thousand. They were everywhere this year. Another Fish Creek Park Short and Sweet session

Short and Sweet in the Fall

Monday, November 21, 2011 Posted in family sessions, short and sweet sessions

Here is one of my favorite Short and Sweet sessions from this fall…this is the second year that I have had the pleasure of seeing these two boys…oh, and their parentsIt was a beautiful fall afternoon in Fish Creek Park. People often ask what the difference is between a Short and Sweet session and a Signature Session…well, the biggest difference is the experience. This is only 20 minutes so it is a bit rushed, but we are still able to capture the love. It is, for me, a bit more of a traditional session. When I am only going to show you 10-15 images, I usually don’t have too much time to be creative. We got lucky at this session with the light and the fall leaves and everything working out just right. My Signature sessions are designed to give you a large number of images for wall displays or books(almost all of my clients end up with a book)….These little ‘mini’ sessions are perfect for just getting that one family image and a couple of the kids…or maternity sessions…or just the parents

I only do Short and Sweet sessions on specific days of the year–once in the winter, twice in the fall…maybe once in the summer sometime as well. My winter one this year will be in March. I already have a list of requests for spots. If you would like a quick session in the snow, email me to receive details when the date is finalized! Dads–it would be a great Christmas gift for momJust saying!!!

I’ll share a few more of my favorite Short and Sweet sessions from this fall throughout the week…sitting wrapped up in a sweater with my tea it is hard to remember that it was this beautiful not that long ago
