Christine, Carina & Patrick – Family Portraits

As I recall there were no complaints form the peanut gallery when they had to spend a good chunk of the afternoon with me in the park while their friends were all at school.  We had a blast at our outdoor fall session.  The leaves were great once we got to a park that still had them.  I had scouted this great location the day before our shoot.  It was filled with leaves from these beautiful old maples.  The ground was awash with colour and there were other elements that added so much to the scene.  The morning of the shoot I showed up to find a City of Ottawa crew just finishing up leaf cleanup.    D’oh!  One of the workers was both insightful and  kind enough to inform me of a nearby park that wasn’t scheduled for cleanup for a few days.  Off we went!  Once there, we raked, we threw the football and we laughed.  Along the way we captured some really fun, natural, fun images.

Check out some of the highlights for our time skipping school.  Hey!  Yeah that’s right, YOU.  If you’re reading this drop us a line in the comments and tell us which image is your favorite.  Thanks!

Storyboards

Awhile back we finished up a project for some really great clients that included one of our mini-storyboards.  I thought many of you might like to see what our storyboards look like.  They finish up wonderfully and create a wonderful way of grouping images in a fun and creative way.  These make wonderful gifts for the grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends.

Non stop hilarity.  That’s the only way I can begin to describe the incredibly enjoyable time I had with Julia, Caleb, Zoe, Gemma, Dominic & Jared.  Each of them brought so much fun and personality to our session that I was running non-stop trying not to miss a moment.  It was a privilege to work with each of them and the entire crew as a whole.  Thanks for the great memories gang, you guys were great!

I love babies!  They’re so darn cute and cuddly.  It was some time ago that I had a chance to photograph sweet Jacob.  He was 6 weeks old at the time and what a handsome little man he is.  Mom and Dad we’re gracious and fun and we all had a blast.  Here’s a look at some of the images we created for the family.
