Lisa & Lyle – Maternity Photography at CMU

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!

Brady 4 days old – Winnipeg Newborn Photography

I first met Shawna & Brad a few years ago when we did a fun “day in the life of” photo session for their then family of 4. Taking candid photos of real life with their two kiddos was such a fun experience, and since then I’ve had the pleasure of doing two newborn sessions for them as they’ve been adding to their beautiful family. This week it was for 4-day-old Brady, likely my youngest client ever, and what a joy it was to see them again with their house so full of life! Four kids, wow! There’s so much laughter, crazy antics and affection for each other, and seeing how chill and go-with-the flow they are as parents, it’s no wonder they can pull it off without sweating the small stuff. How wonderful it was to take these photos for them – a beautiful souvenir of a real whirlwind phase of their life – it may be crazy and a little overwhelming at times, but their love for each other is definitely keeping them afloat! Love these guys!

Nao’s Newborn Photography Session

The last time I saw this family was for Noah’s newborn photos, so it was extra special to come back again to their house to photograph their second addition, sweet little Nao! We recreated some of the same photos we had taken with their first born son, and then added a few more portraits outdoors in the beautiful sun. This family of 4 is so adorable and being there to capture these beautiful moments in their growing family was such a privilege. Congratulations you guys!

Loewen Family Photos at Assiniboine Park

These guys had a lot of milestones last month and to celebrate all these special occasions, Corinne planned a family portrait session for the four of them this July. A wedding anniversary, a high-school graduation and a sweet 16 – wow! I couldn’t be happier to take these photos with them and to celebrate with them. Here’s a preview from our lovely evening at the English Garden at Assiniboine Park.

6 month old baby photos – Winnipeg Family Photography

I absolutely love this stage – babies at 6 months of age! Newborn photos and 1 year baby photos are big milestones, but there’s the 6 month mark that’s also such a great time to capture! Especially if your baby is a winter baby and their birthday photos happen to fall on a cold & dreary month, taking half-year photos is a great way to capture their cuteness in a warm & summery setting. Little Odette was all smiles at her session – enjoying cuddles from her parents, eating dandelions and playing in the park. Here’s just a small sampling from the session from a couple of days ago – with more coming soon!
