to book the Winter Newborn Special!!

This special includes a complimentary maternity session when you book a newborn session at regular rates, but the offer expires on April 1st! So if you are considering booking, shoot me an email asap. The maternity session is a great value as I normally charge for each and every digital negative, and with this special you will get 10-15 digital images on CD absolutely free in addition to the free session!

The original post about the special can be found here and has all the details.

On another note, in the past few days, spring has really seemed to arrive around here. I can’t wait to get outside for some of my upcoming shoots! Yeah for warmer weather!!

Earlier this week I had the pleasure of meeting this sweet couple, who is expecting their first baby soon, up in Vancouver for some maternity portraits. We shot at The Academy in Vancouver, a great deserted old building that was perfect for the urban look we were going for. The day was gorgeous (a bit chilly, too) and we had some great light to work with. I think you will all agree braving the cold was worth it!

I had a gorgeous mama-to-be, fun colors to work with, and a great urban location. What more could a photographer ask for?

H, I hope you like these and can’t wait to meet your little one in a few weeks!

Here is a quick teaser for a great session I had yesterday in Vancouver at the Academy. We had a lot of fun and had some great light and scenery to work with!

Full sneak peak coming tomorrow, here is one for now:

Love him.

Now this is what I live for…

Those rare moments of sibling harmony that are often gone in an instant (not only because usually if I run to grab my camera I will hear a scream from the other room before I’ve had a chance to get back in there and take the picture, but also because these two kiddos are SO active that they rarely sit still long enough for me to take a picture of this!)

I got lucky the other day with some lovely afternoon sunshine, and a big brother with a book. Not to mention, how sweet is it that she has her arm around her brother’s shoulders like that.

Total mommy goggles, but these are the moments that make it all worth it!

I’m not doing this photo-a-day challenge right, because I’ve realized it’s impossible with two active preschoolers to pull out my camera every single day. So I’m going to just post ‘em as I can, and it will be fun at the end of the year to look back and see how many I posted. I might make them into a cute book or something!
