{newest neighbour}

We have ALOT of girls on our street, they probably out number the boys 2 to 1, or even 3 to 1!! That's not a huge problem now but in 10 years from now, there may be alot of fighting over these boys,LOL!!!

Now there is one more girl to add to that number! Baby "J" was born just over a week ago and I was so happy to get to photograph her for the first time!! She was so good during our session, awake for a bit, sleeping for most and only peeing on me once!!

There were so many great images I had a hard time picking a few, so I didn't!! Here's alot!


Meet baby "J" and her new big sister "M".Couldn't decide whether I liked color or b&w better...what do you think??Thanks for looking!

{more of mine}

Are you getting tired of these faces yet??

I took a small break from client sessions in the last week because it was crazy around here, so all I've had to take pictures of are my girls. They will have to do!!

We had a great time in Gimli this weekend at my mom and dad's retirement party. Here are just a couple of shots while we were all playing on the beach. Although in threatened rain all afternoon it never actually rained, thank goodness!

I may post more later this week!

Thanks for looking!

{a new look}

My little "P" has always had ALOT of hair!! People used to comment that it looked like she was wearing a wig. I dug out a few old pictures but this doesn't even do the "mop" justice!

This was at her longest. She had never had a real haircut, just trims, until shortly after this was taken. She had a whopping 8 inches cut off at 4 1/2 years old!!This was her yesterday before:and after:She LOVES it!! I think it's pretty cute too although I'll miss her long locks a little!!

Thanks for looking!

{finally summer!}

This everyday blogging is HARD!!! Don't think I'll do that again...:)
We had a great time splashing in sprinklers yesterday as the temperature got up to the high 20's. FINALLY!!! We've been waiting for beautiful weather for weeks.
I don't have a thing for Superman, it just seems to pop up here often!
Freezees, a summer staple.

And of course, no dip in the sprinkler is complete without goggles and waterwings!!!

Stay cool!

Thanks for looking!

{sneak peek}

I met the SWEETEST couple last week who are expecting their first baby. They were so warm and welcoming and after sitting down with them to chat before we started I felt like I'd known them for years.

When I pulled up in their driveway, I gave a little squeal when I spotted the huge cherryblossom tree and little red bard , (I SO want a barn!!!). I couldn't wait to get outside!!




I had a great time hanging out with these two and they are going to make GREAT parents!! They are so easygoing and relaxed.

As I was packing up to leave I spotted a guitar in the corner of their living room and had to ask if someone played. Dad-to-be is a musician so I dragged them back outside to get this. :)

Enjoy your sneak peek!

{day 3...sorry 4}

Ok so I'm not so good at this everyday thing,lol! My neighbour actually told be I missed a day and I didn't believe her!! I was sure I was doing good!! Oh well!

My "baby" isn't a baby anymore... "I" is 31/2 going on 8. She thinks she should do everything her big sisters can do. So she decided that her tricycle was for babies and she was ready for her big girl bike. So out came the bike and helmet on a beautiful sunny day and away she went, "easy peasy" she says.


*sigh* they are not supposed to grow up. Didn't she get the memo???

Thanks for looking!

{day 2}

I haven't shared any new images of my girls lately so here are a few I took in Gimli a few weeks ago. I'm sure we'll be here alot more once my mom and dad retire this summer. So be prepared for lots of beach pictures!

I'm trying to get a great picture of the girls that I can get in canvas but it's so hard and I can't commit to a favorite. It changes all the time. Hopefully this summer I will capture "the one".

Love this one of "I"!!!

Thanks for looking!

{sneak peek}

So I've been a bad blogger so I'm giving myself a challenge to get back into the habit of blogging! Get ready for a post a day for the next 7 days!

I spent the afternoon with this cute little guy and his mom and dad. This was a quazi-newborn shoot as mom wanted to have baby announcements done but this little guy is already 1 month old. He was very wide awake and alert, no sleeping for him, thank you very much! We really tried and we managed to keep him asleep for maybe 15 mins. Power nap over, he was up and quite tired of the paparazzi. We did get some beautiful shots and can't wait to finish them up!

I'll be in touch soon, for now here's your sneak peek!

Dad requested a few photos of their "first child" and this furry baby was happy to let me! Should I stick to kids????

Thanks for looking!

{where have I been????} -winnipeg family photographer

I don't think I've ever gone this long between posts before!
I'm here! I'm here!
It's been pretty crazy around my house lately, with birthdays, a traveling husband and trying to keep up with the kids!
I've also been working on my business structure and website so watch for new images and changes, not really in prices but in options.
Here's a 2nd look at the "K" family. They are a couple posts down and I hung out with them again this weekend, to get a few more images my wonky camera missed last time. The girls were much more comfortable with me and I actually got a smile from little "Q" when I arrived! Yay!!!

Thanks for looking!
