My Eileen

I had the great privilege of photographing my other photographer friend Eileen. If you're keeping track, I have three girls I call "mine". I am missing my Shayna but she will appear on this blog sooner or later too I promise. Check them all out!

Eileen has been a fantastic help this weekend. She not only helped with a couple of shoots she also volunteered to watch my babies for the day while I edited and ...she made dinner too! Wow. LOVE HER!

We took some time in between shoots on Sunday to grab a few shots of her too.

Here's My Eileen!
Love this one!

This is our leaf shot....yes, we are silly:)


On to the emotion. This is so Eileen!She was an amazing subject ('cause she knows the best shots often take sacrifice) and took off her shoes and rolled around in leaves. Wet and cold, yes. Good photography, you bet!

On a side note, she got stung by a wasp! Can you believe it?! While she was rolling around in the leaves....anything for the shot I guess!

Who says only kids can play in the leaves!? We are children at heart!
LOVE THIS ONE! Stunning:)
Cutie!
Love the dramatic look of this image. Wow, can you believe she lied down on a cold wet bridge?!
And she climbed the rails too!
And pulled off some hottie poses.
Another Eileen shot. So her.
Beautiful!!!!
Check out the bare feet! Such a great sport!
Our "signature" jump shots:) Ya know ya love it!
Eileen, thanks for being such an incredibly giving and thoughtful friend. You are one in a million. I can't believe we only met a few months ago. So glad you are in my life!

My Natalie

I had the honor of photographing my awesome photographer friend Natalie and her family. I call her mine because she has been such an awesome assistant, visionary and all around great friend. I had a blast with them, at our usual spot, doing what we do best together, photography. This time she was on the other side of the camera and she and the family did awesome. Thanks for letting me take your photos, for the third year in a row, I might add. I loved hangin' out with you!! See you soon!

Um, yeah, they're hot! Smokin!The whole family.
Handsome boy eh?!
Awe!
The little "angel".....just ask her mommy! She was great for me :)
LOVE THIS IMAGE!
Sweet!
A walk in the forest.
Time to go home with daddy.
Love you guys!

The Gerbrandt Family

Here is yet another great family I had the pleasure of photographing recently. They were full of smiles and laughs. Thanks for a great time guys!






My Sister's Having her Third!

She beat me to it! She is expecting number three this February and she's looking fantastic.
Yeah, getting a little artsy and loving it!

I love, love, love the colour of the grass and her hair!
Thanks for "playing" with me in the freezing weather Joyce! It was worth it!

The Okazaki Family

Remember the days when I used to blog images immediately after a session? Well, gone are those times! Due to the busy wedding season, (which ran into November) and the many clients getting Christmas photos, I am working some major overtime. Here are some images taken a couple weeks back and I think they are worth the wait! I love them.

The light was just perfect and the subjects adorable. I am really spoiled with such great clients!

Note to anyone wanting to get photos done, the best time of day is the late afternoon, evening (depending on the season of course). These images really show what a great feel good lighting adds.







Thanks Glenna and family!
