Sleepy Smiles

My first newborn of the 2014 season was this little guy, whose awesome parents hired me to shoot their wedding last year. Casey & Amy are laid back and fabulous to work with so I couldn't wait to share these images. It gives me so much joy to photograph clients on multiple occasions, because I really feel like I get to see their family grow and evolve over the years.

Baby Elgin decided he wanted to come a week early so we had to do some shuffling to book the session but once I got there, he was so smiley and charming. And that hair! I have never seen a baby with a fauxhawk, until now!

Welcome to the world, Elgin George Hollema.

Military Engagement

Kim & Grant met up with me a couple weekends ago to sign the contract for their wedding later this summer, and while we were together we did some engagement shots on Base Borden. They both have connections to the military so it was the perfect spot, although it certainly was a chilly day to be outside! My favourites are the ones with their dog, how cute is that handmade sign around his neck?!

Post Valentine's Day Wedding

Athena and Craig were my first wedding couple of the 2014 season as they tied the knot on February 15th. It was a sunny but frigid day, so the wedding party and I traveled to the nearby Barrie Public Library for photos.

The library staff was amazingly helpful as we all made a spectacle of ourselves walking around in such fancy attire. I loved the light coming through the windows of the library and knew that the artistic staircase would be a great backdrop for the adoring couple.

It was a day full of laughter and this laid back couple was a joy to work with.

Congrats Athena & Craig!
