A sunny newborn session featuring the sweetest baby girl :)

We're about to be hit with a final winter snowstorm. Well I'm just going to keep thinking happy thoughts of warmth and sunshine. 

This session was from early September and features a fellow photographer and her beautiful family. Always an honour...

More and more often, I find myself leaving sessions thinking "I could totally be friends with these people". And not just casual, "small-talk on the street" friends, but "Is it really time for me to leave now, come on over for dinner, we should hang out" friends. This family felt just like that. After only a few minutes in their home, we were chatting away and before I knew it, our time together had come to an end. I love sessions like these.

My first post on my new site! Thank you so much to everyone for your positive comments on my new logo and website, which was launched last week. It was a long time in the making and I am so thrilled to have a new look and a space to share my work. 

I'm kicking things off with a family I photographed earlier this week. We finally have summer weather and it was great to start what feels like a new season with these four.

I met with these two on a grey, rather windy afternoon. Normally we would reschedule with weather like this, but their newest addition was expected to be making an appearance at any point, so we decided to take our chances. Thankfully the rain held off and we were not blown away. Lisa and I used to work together and it was so nice to catch up with her and to meet her beautiful daughter.

A spring morning with Twins! | Toronto Newborn Photographer

This session is actually from last spring – almost a full year ago. These little babes just celebrated their first birthday and I'm looking forward to photographing them again soon!

March was a busy month for new babies! Now that I am caught up on all of my editing, I can share some of the lovely families I captured over the last few weeks. My favourite part of this session was the way this little guy's dad looked at his mom. It was pure adoration. At a time where they were probably feeling the most emotional and exhausted they have ever felt, he looked blissful staring at his wife. What a wonderful thing to witness.

It has been a long, cold winter, but the one positive thing we can admit is that we've had beautiful sunshine (it comes hand in hand with the cold) and it's probably the brightest most of our homes have ever been with all the snow to reflect the light in. Just trying to stay positive over here :) So I was pretty happy when this family chose the winter for their session, and I was even happier when Mom mentioned that they have a backyard fireplace where they enjoy roasting marshmallows. And can you believe that she forgot to mention the tire swing? That was just a bonus when I showed up.

Coffee and newborns go together | Toronto Family Photographer

ahhh coffee. What would we do without it? After a few terrible nights with Brooke in the last little while (ear infections coupled with 2-year molars coming in), I actually felt like I had a newborn again. But without the adrenalin. So when I arrived to meet little baby A and his parents last week, and we got to chatting about their lack of sleep –  I really felt their pain. And when coffee was offered, I gladly accepted :)

These two are smitten with their new little guy and I had such a wonderful time with them.
