Annick: First Birthday Photo Session

In 2019 I had the pleasure of photographing Miranda and Mike’s winter wedding, and instead of using the engagement session in their wedding package for engagement photos, they swapped it out for a future family photo session. The day finally came and I got to meet Annick, their adorable 1 year old daughter, who is full of spunk and curiosity. We met up at St. Vital Park to take photos in the flower garden and it was so much fun catching all these memories for them. What a beautiful family!

Ivan: First Birthday Photo Session

Turning 1 is a big deal! So going out to the park with the family is a good way to mark this occasion with photos to remember this stage. I’m always so amazed by how different a kid will look like in their early phases of growing up. As a newborn you look SO different from 1 year later at your first birthday, and then beyond that, you look SO different as a 3 or 4 year old. These early stages go by so fast and so much growth and development happens – that’s why I love it when I get to follow my tiny clients along as they transition from tiny newborn human to cuddly & cute roly-poly toddler. Ivan especially has gone from being a super tiny newborn to growing off the charts at 1 and taking his photo every step of his growing life has been such a delight! We took advantage of the cooler mornings on this hot Winnipeg summer year and met up at Bruce Park for their photos. I love all the nature corners our city has to offer and I hadn’t been to this park in a super long time. It was a nice surprise to see how gorgeous the light acts throughout the park and the lovely sceneries we had all to ourselves!
