I spent a sunny afternoon with these three and their parents back in late August. It's hard to believe how quickly the last few weeks have gone by and how the weather and days are changing. Looking at these definitely makes me long for summer again. We started at one of my favourite parks and then headed for a walk through the Junction, finishing up with popsicles. It was the perfect end-of-summer session.
This little guy turns one today! I spent a lovely morning with him and his mama yesterday and this is how a celebratory birthday cake smash should be. Relaxed and fun! Here is a little preview (okay, a big preview) for his parents on their baby boy's first birthday.
After waiting all week, it was finally Robin's turn to join the masses and make the trek to her new school for her first day of junior kindergarten. 
Thankfully she was brave and the only tears were my own.

Cottage-bound and hoping to eat s'mores, swim, kayak, hike, read a good book, and relax over the next week… when I'm not chasing two kids, that is.
As much as I love working with babies, I've developed a bit of a soft spot for the "big kids" lately. I had a wonderful time getting to know this family of three over the weekend. We spent time at their home and then walked to the park that they have been visiting as a family since their daughter was just a toddler. She's all grown up now but they enjoy the park just the same.
A little preview for their mom!
I've been pleasantly surprised by the number of inquires lately from those looking to capture their "extended" family. So often the only portraits we have with our parents or siblings are from our weddings, or significant events like the birth of a baby, and I don't know about you, but I was not looking too hot on the days either of my kids were born. Alternatively, we have selflies we've taken on our smart phones, which may get posted to Instagram or Facebook, but unless you are blessed with selfie-taking talent that results in photos that do not leave you with a double-chin or a view up your nose, chances are you are not printing and hanging these on the wall. So it's pretty awesome that more and more families are finding the time in their busy schedules to gather together for a morning or afternoon, and are having me tag along to capture their time with one another.
This family only had once chance at getting some family photos over the long weekend as they are separated by distances and it's rare they can all be together at the same time. Rain or shine (and it did pour rain), we had to make this happen. I joined them after their breakfast (homemade scones and a pot of tea were still on the table) and we spent our time in the backyard garden, briefly inside the house, and then a walk at a nearby park.
