Cali & Kyra | Toronto Family Photographer

Yesterday, I spent an hour with Kyra and her sweet baby girl, Cali. Kyra made us coffee, we admired Cali's adorable clothes, talked about the frigid weather that's keeping everyone stuck indoors, and I held my camera and snapped away.

Kyra and Cali's hours together, the days, weeks, and months – they will go by far too fast.

I spent less than 60 minutes with them. And these portraits will be a reminder of Cali at 5 months old. Her adorable expressions, those tiny toes, the way she smiles at her mama and sticks out her tongue, and is just so content to be next to her all day long.

Happy New Year! Welcome 2014...

2014-01-07_0001 Happy New Year! After a 3-week holiday with my family, I'm back to work this week. It feels good to be setting goals and making resolutions for 2014. Already it looks like January is going to be a busy month with lots of babies on the way. And above is my own – Brooke at 8 months.

Baby G | Toronto Baby Photographer

This family is near and dear to my heart as we've become friends over the past 2 years. Last summer, they welcomed a fourth member into the family – baby G. We had a beautiful summer day for G's newborn photos. And 6 months later (on a much colder February day), I spent some time again with baby G. His mom and I agree that this is just one of the sweetest stages that babies go through. They're sitting up, but not yet crawling or walking. And they are still so happily entertained by the simple things – toes and feet, Sophie the giraffe, and of course Mom's smiling face...

Oh my, don't you just want to squeeze him!?! 6-7 months is a GREAT age for a photo session and I (although biased) highly recommend it. It's a time that goes by much too fast.

The L Family | Toronto Family Photographer

This was my first shoot of 2013 and what better way to kick off the year than with a family that is near and dear to my heart. Big sister Veronica was happy to show off her little brother Jason and gave me some great smiles and giggles along the way
