This little one is celebrating her first birthday — today!  

And a birthday on Halloween would not be complete without a great little princess costume.  So cute!

Have a fun Halloween and a great weekend!

For this senior’s session we went to Elmwood Park, a familiar place for many photographers.  What was great about this session was that while walking around the light was so great that we were able to try some new areas in the park.  The fall colors there are beautiful right now and we had a great evening for pictures.

Just time for one quick post today…

I spent some time with this lovely lady over the weekend.  For a few years now her mom (that lives in Calgary by the way) has been asking her to get professional pictures taken.  Well, she finally gave in and decided to get it done.  We went down to the Old Market area on a blustery afternoon, but managed to find a few places where she wouldn’t get the “wind blown” look.  :)  She brought some great clothes, including some killer red heels and the great hat you see here. 

Have a great Tuesday!

A few to share from another recent session.  I enjoyed this family very much.  The kids were wonderful as we walked around taking pictures and finding trees to climb and sticks to carry.  What struck me most was how kind and protective big brother was to his baby sister.  If she was falling behind as we walked he would go back to walk with her, call her to see what new treasure he had discovered, or give her a kiss on the cheek for no reason at all.  What a lucky girl she is to have such a loving big brother.
