Five Minutes

Five minutes is just about the time limit that I can squeeze out of my boys to have their picture taken. Grant really wanted to pick apples this year, but we were having a hard time finding an opportunity on the weekends to go. One school night, after dinner, we hopped in the car and headed towards Picton, crossing our fingers that one of the orchards would be open. They weren`t, the boys were disappointed, so we settled on going for milkshakes instead. It was such a beautiful evening, that I convinced the boys (I think that the milkshakes helped) to stop at a boat launch on the way back to town, and shoot a few photos before the sun disappeared. All I want is one, one shot of the two of them together that I love, then I`m a happy mama:)

A sample of what I usually get from my silly boys!

Boys in Trees

I photographed this family on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in September. They met me after a weekend at their cottage, and we went back and forth between a cute little downtown park and a stunning limestone wall across the street. The boys were so much fun to photograph, and they loved climbing on the old tree which was in the corner of the park. The baby of the family was one of the happiest little guys that I've worked with. Dorene certainly has her hands full with a household of boys, but you can tell that they love their momma.

Enjoy your sneak peak, I love this set!

Lovely Ladies

I had the pleasure of crossing paths with Kandis while doing one of my most favourite things...getting my hair done. Kandis worked with my hair stylist, the amazing Tamara. Going to Tamara's is like going to the spa! From the minute that you walk into Tamara's salon you feel welcomed and pampered. There is never a shortage of laughs and giggles, and usually a little wine, tea and munchies too. Visiting with Tamara and Kandis was such a treat!

Sadly Kandis and her girls moved to Brockville so Tamara wanted to do something special for her before she left. Tamara asked me to take some pictures of Kandis and her beautiful girls. So we headed out to Lemoine's Point one Saturday afternoon. Kandis' girls are so precious. They were a little shy at first, but by the end they were very giggly and chatty. The perfect end to a wonderful session are the hugs that I often get from the kids. That is one of the best parts of my job.
