Two girls, fresh out of the tub……cotton jammies, clean sheets, bouncing and giggles. What more could you ask for?!
And yes, I do realize that our youngest mildly resembles Jack Nicholson in The Shining – darn good thing she’s cute, right?
Enjoy the pics…man, it was funny getting these. Little ones crack me right up!
Mish.







A tiny sneak for a very loved little man…tune in for more soon!

Here’s a bit of what I’ve been up to the past week……although it is of course starting to feel hectic and busy and crazy – I am loving being in the midst of it all! This next week is going to be another one with me behind the camera….Nevaeh’s ballet recital, an outdoor photoshoot of my girlies, a teensy baby girl, an uber stylish family of 4, and second shooting a wedding with Brooke. Whew!. I guess this means it’s time to start hitting the caffeine again. Hehehe!
Enjoy the sneaks and make sure to stay tuned in for full posts:)
A wonderful engagement session I got to shoot with Brooke
Family session of four of the nicest kids around….a surprise for Father’s Day!
My first wedding of the year….it was hot and very sunny – these two rocked it!
Last but not least – a very chill baby boy. Easiest baby to date….thanks Evan!

These were so great to do while down on the Island, as the subjects are not only beauuutiful, but Mama Jack and I have been friends for about 28 years – WOW, does that make me feel old. One of my fondest memories is of us jumping into our swimsuits and hopping into her tub full of bright blue Calgon bubbles and then blasting the Beach Boys “Kokomo”. Another that you may have forgotten about Jack, is when we first got training bras and decided we wanted bigger tata’s- we improvised and took some of plastic eggs your Mum’s nylons came in, popped them in half and stuck em down our shirts. Oh yeah, we rocked it:) Anyways, on with the pics….your family is gorgeous Jack and I’m just so proud of how much you’ve accomplished.
Mwah!
My fave….you can just see how much Jack adores her girls.
Big Sis….Miss Pina.
Big Sis Pina…..this little lady had moves!

This one is extra special for Mum as this is the tiara Jack wore for her wedding 10 years ago….we also have a photo with Pina wearing it at just a few weeks old.
Loving this…
Do you ever wonder just what it is the wee ones are thinking at times?! hehe….
Miss Isabella, or “Babybel” as she is more often called….such a dolly:)

Love these ones of Mama and her girls…
** A last one added from our play date with the girls the following day – true Island weather, it drizzled the whole time, but we bundled up and got this smooshy, lovey image that I just adore. Thanks for the visit!
This past weekend I had the chance to not only meet up with friends and family, but also their new family members. I booked a room at the beautifully renovated Coast Bastion Hotel in Nanaimo, and in between sessions I enjoyed the ridiculous harbour view and the yummiest food. Mmmmm. The teeniest little man belongs to my cousin Jenn, and he was 10 days old and not yet 7lbs. Definitely made me have the “fever”. Hehe. Second was a friend and ex co-worker from back in the banking days at TD…I photographed her fam, including her “little” man….he is 19 lbs and just 4 months old. I think it’s safe to say he may take after his Dad:) Last but not least was my dear friend Jack and her gorgeous little ladies…..Jack and I have been friends since we were 4 years old, and these two little girls have two of the greatest parents I’ve ever met. Big Sis Pina is two years old, and Isabella….aka “BabyBelle” is 3 months. We had such a fun time, and even met up in the rain to shoot a few family pics the next afternoon.
I had a wonderful day….loved the hotel, loved the babies and catching up with old friends. Oh, and the light?! Dee-vine! Brooke and I are planning to shoot as much as we can in this same spot in the upcoming months and I CANNOT wait!
PS – Nevaeh and I spent the day at Coombs Market this afternoon and I think I’m still drooling!!! Enjoy the pics…full posts coming soon!
