Mandy & Tim’s Wedding

Posted on March 24, 2010

In late February Sarah Goblot came down from Montreal to shoot this wonderful winter wedding in Niagara on on the Lake at the Court House with me. It was pretty exciting being apart of winter wedding and shooting Mandy on her big day (well Tim too). I must tell you that Mandy is a SUPER big sweetheart and I love her for being so photogenic! She makes all images look good and Tim too LOL  ;)   Here are a few of my favourite images from their day.

The grooms mother with finishing touches the (delicious) wedding cake (one of three!);

The ‘Simply Beautiful’ decor (IE linens) were provided by Simply Beautiful.  The location was Covenant Church in St.Catharines and the reception was at The Old Court House in Niagara on the Lake.

Stunning……

A little Banana

Posted on March 9, 2010

Miss “C” is one of my banana newborns. Nice and bendy (7 days fresh) and jaundice (yellow).  Does this affect the ubber cuteness and perfection of a newborn? No chance. Just look at these wonderful pics….

Twins Boys

Posted on March 8, 2010

I have once again had the good fortune of shooting newborn twins!  A little trickier to get both boys to settle at the same time during this session, but sometimes you only need a split second to capture a great portrait (even if you cheated to get someone’s eyes to close ;) )

I’d loved this photo for mom and dad’s expressions… I can just imagine some of the thoughts that run through their mind as they get used to the new family additions… ‘lucky’, ‘crazy’, ‘blessed’, ‘help’  – at least their still smiling :)

Two Brothers

Posted on March 7, 2010

How adorable are these two? I recently met these boys when I needed someone to practice some new lighting techniques on (great timing mom). My newborn model was great, but his big brother was an unexpected bonus for me. He was very friendly and happy to pose for me. Here’s a few of my favourites;
