Photographing Energetic Children | Oakville Family Photographer

It’s not only a photoshoot, it’s also a workout, ha ha ha!  I’m only half kidding when I say that too!!

Working with young children means a lot of running around, a lot of laughter, and a lot of energy.  It can sometimes be hard for the parents to watch, as in their eyes all they’re seeing is rambunctious kids running around.  I get it, I might get a little anxious too.

I’m here to let you know that this is ALWAYS how these sessions play out.  I really need to remind parents at the beginning of every session that this is how I work; we run around, we discover our surroundings, and while it may look like absolute chaos at time’s, I need to assure the parents that I’m capturing the moment, I’m capturing the happiness on their faces, I’m capturing those candid interactions!

There’s a hashtag that I use often when sharing on social media, it’s #letthekids meaning let the kids be who they are, let the kids have fun, let the kids burn their energy, for at the end of the session I assure you, every kid will be tired out, they will want Mom and Dad to pick them up, to snuggle them close, and that my dear friends is when the family magic really happens.

I loved chasing these two beautiful babes around!!  I loved how much fun they were having running up and down that open space, and most of all I loved how they snuggled close to Mom at the end of our time together.  Thank you for trusting in me to document your children in a candid unposed manner.  While I know it seemed chaotic during our time together, I hope these images tell a different story.

I hope you love your peek Mom and Dad!!!

Candid Family Photography | Burlington Family Photographer

It sounds pretty effortless doesn’t it, “candid” family photography?!

You tend to think fun, interactive, playful families that don’t require any direction.  And while that’s the look that I always aim to produce during my family sessions, it’s not always effortless or entirely candid.

It can often be quite a challenge to capture these candid interactions.  You see, not a families have that instinct to be affectionate during a photography session.  I’m certain it’s because we’ve been directed from a young age to ‘look at the camera, okay, now smile’.  Believe me, we hear it often as young children and it simply becomes engrained in us over time.

This family has certainly helped me nail the effortless look of candid family photography!!  Maybe it’s because they’re comfortable working with me at this point, or maybe they’re just that fun loving type of people.  Either way, their affection and playfulness made for an absolutely beautiful session.

I hope you adore these images of your most favourite people Mum!!  The 4 of you were so much fun to document!  May these images always remind you of the fun loving Mum that you are!

Referral | Burlington Newborn Photographer

Photography is a business that becomes successful not only by beautiful imagery, but also from client referrals.  I see it all the time on social media forums, people looking for someone to capture important times in their lives, and their friends and family members suggesting photographers that they’ve used in the past.  It’s a natural progression and  a huge part of my business!!

I’m so thankful for all these wonderful clients of mine that pass along my name, share my work, and trust in me to capture special times in their lives.  Be it the birth of a new baby, or simply documenting your children’s growth over the years, they’re all special in there own way!!

One thing I’m missing though is an appropriate way to thank my clients for referring me to their loved ones.  And so, I’m looking to all of you, my lovely followers, to offer suggestions and ideas on how I can show my appreciation.  Leave your suggestions in the comments below……if you have any 😉

I bet after reading this far, you can image how this babe came to me, yup it was a referral, and one that I am so very thankful for!!!  Had it not been for my awesome neighbours (who also happen to be clients), I would not have had the pleasure of meeting this darling girl at a ripe 6 days of age.  I also would likely not have heard how much she was longed for, how her family prayed for her existence for years, how she became the rainbow baby that is so very loved.

She may have a tiny little body but she certainly has a huge presence, and one that fills a space in many peoples hearts.

I’m so thrilled to have been given the pleasure of meeting her, documenting her fresh, newborn details, and hearing the story of how she came to be.

I can’t thank you enough for entrusting in my with your baby girls newborn photos.  I hope you adore them just as much as you do that precious little girl!!

Fall Sunset Sessions | Burlington Family Photographer

There is so much beauty in the Fall season.  Not only the gorgeous orange, red, and yellow tones of the foliage but also the setting sun and all of its warmish hues.  Add in a beautiful, playful family and the results are magic!!

I love seeing the three of you every year!  The growth in your sweet boy just about blew my mind this year.  His face is changing, he’s loosing his baby and morphing into a young boy;  how fast it seems to have happened!

I can’t thank you enough for coming back to me year after year to document your family!  I absolutely love capturing you each and every time!

I hope you love your peek!!

She makes Three | Burlington Newborn Photographer

This darling girl, the baby of the family, only days old, and already so loved and protected by her big brothers!!

These three seriously turned my heart to mush, the way they held her so firmly, snuggled so close, and had so much patience and love for her.  It was so incredibly heart warming to watch them interact and I absolutely loved documenting their love for her!

I not only enjoyed photographing the three kids together, I also really enjoyed capturing her fresh new details.  We all know how fast a newborn baby grows and changes which makes these detailed images all the more treasured.

I hope you love these images just as much as I loved capturing them Mom and Dad!

Thank you for sharing your beautiful children with me!  They’ve made a huge impact on my heart, as I’m sure they do to you daily!!
