Isabella – 10 days

When I saw a message in my inbox from Isabella’s mom, I thought we’d be booking a 1 year session for her daughter whom I shot as a newborn last year. Imagine my surprise to see a request for another newborn session 13.5 months after our first newborn session! It was a pleasure to see mom and dad again and Isabella’s big sister! She has grown into a very cute dark eyed, curly haired little toddler. Both girls are adorable and it was great to capture this special time in this family’s life.

A New Brother

7 days fresh! He is positively angelic and his big brother seems quite pleased to with this new addition to the family. We were able to get plenty of images of him sleeping for the birth announcement – in fact I know I can’t decide which I like best!

Mini Missionary

These proud new parents are Missionaries in Nigeria. They came back to Grimsby to have their son. We used a traditional ‘Nigerian Yam Pot’ for a few of our images and while I think that’s pretty cool, my favourite is the first image; no big props, no hat, just a beautiful little 6 day old face……

Seven Days

I really enjoyed shooting baby L and his family. I really appreciated how mom booked me in advance and phoned me when the baby was a day old and has already placed her order. (Thanks guys! Great session)

One Happy Boy!

I have never had a newborn smile more! Just adorable. Here is ‘J’, 12 days fresh. He has 2 older brothers who are equally as handsome. I am booked solid through till the end of August, but I could not resist a newborn, plus this guy comes into this world to a very special mom icon smile One Happy Boy! .  I’m glad we were able to work in this session and that we were able to get so many images of this precious guy!

10x20b Siblings

 8x12b Siblings            To the outside world, we all grow old.   But not to brothers and sisters. We know each other as we always were/ We know each other’s hearts. We share private family jokes. We remember family feuds and secrets, family griefs and joys. We outside the touch of time.  Carla Ortega

Smithville Christian High School – SDCH

I’ve been shooting at Smithville Christian High over the last few weeks taking images for their promotional material.  I’ve had the pleasure of capturing Boys Soccer, the cast of the drama production (The Mouse that Roared), Chapel, Creative Arts evening, the Community Choir as well as regular student life. I’d like to tell you that it makes me feel like a teen again – but nope. I have enjoyed it though!
