Micah turned one! To mark this exciting milestone, his parents invited me to their home to take some lifestyle family portraits as well as to take photos of a cake smash in their backyard. We used my white paper backdrop, set up the cake and Micah did the rest. 🙂 We finished with a bubble bath and he was so happy the entire time! Happy birthday Micah! You are so cute!
Half a year ago, Lisa & Lyle’s second boy turned one, but life got busy and they never got a chance to do his first birthday cake smash. Shortly after that, they got the exciting news that they were expecting twin girls in the Spring! March rolled around and we finally got the time to meet up and capture this exciting phase in their family’s life. So we combined their maternity session with a family session and a 1st birthday cake smash (at 18 months old, because better late than never, right?!). We met up at CMU’s new building that houses Folio Cafe and we captured all of their fun & energetic family dynamics. The boys loved the pedestrian tunnel (and so do I for all that gorgeous light, clean lines & depth) and they enjoyed a doughnut treat at the end. It’s been so much fun to follow along their life journey ever since their engagement photo session with me in 2009, to now, with twin newborn photos just around the corner. Can’t wait to continue photographing this beautiful journey they’re on!

It was a beautiful October afternoon when I met up with Sitaara and her parents at one of my favourite parks in St. Boniface. She just turned one and we celebrated this huge milestone with some fun family photos out in nature, and finished off with a tasty cake smash at the end! Sitaara is a sweet, shy and adorable little girl – she was a bit reserved at first, but soon warmed up and gave me so many beautiful smiles and candid moments with her parents. She is well loved and so full of brightness – happy birthday little lady!

A year ago I met Griffin at his newborn photo session when he was just a wee little guy, and yesterday I had the pleasure of seeing him again, this time, all grown up! We went to his great-aunt’s amazing (and huge) backyard and got some great photos of him with balloons and of course, a cake to smash. Both sets of grandparents were there and also got a chance to jump into some of the photos. This guy is well-loved and oh-so cute! He was all smiles, and got into the cake like a true birthday boy should! Happy birthday Griffin!
