Yummy Album-y Goodness |Halifax Portrait Photographer

I love taking photographs…..but I will often tell my clients that my favorite part is seeing their faces when they get the final product.  Nothing gets a better reaction than the custom flushmount albums, nothing.

The first one I ever gave, invoked tears. The second, same. And so on and so on. I have been fortunate enough to sell them on blind faith from my clients. They believed me when I told them how fantastic they were. They trusted I was telling the truth when I said what a great showcase they would be for their memories. Yet still, everytime,  the response has been surprise. Surprise at the quality, the feel, the smell, the texture. “They’re so much better than I was already expecting!”

My point in all of this, (and yes, I do have a point!) is that I now have a beautiful flushmount sample to show clients before they place their orders.

The album you see here is a panoramic 16×6 album, but is also offered in 8×8 and 10×10 square.

Halifax Newborn Photographer

Babies, babies everywhere!

Lots maternity sessions coming up, and newborns too! Can’t wait to share with you…..and there will be some new stuff on the blog this weekend :)

It’s a busy time around these parts, as we’re in the midst of packing for the big move to our new home!! We’re very excited and up to our eyeballs in boxes, newspaper and tape.

Can you believe we are into the third week of January already?! Craziness.

Here’s a sweet shot of the twins that I haven’t shared before to tide you over ♥

Introducing Sara | Halifax Newborn Photographer

Guess who is a proud big sister?!

Mom Kelly told me today that absolutely no pictures have been sent out of little miss Sara, so it is an honor to “introduce” her to their friends and family!

Sara Francesca Battilana

October 8th, 2009 ~ 8:52am ~ 7lb 2oz

I am absolutely certain if you look up “spunk” and “starved” in the dictionary, you will find Sara’s photo. I have never seen such a hungry, awake 9 day old.

I left today after 4.5 hours, covered in pee, spitup and new baby smell…..and I loved every second.

And although we weren’t able to coordinate the sisters’ for a sibling image ( I’m going back for that once Sara is holding up her head!) we couldn’t leave Loren out!

UC Baby Display | Halifax Maternity and Newborn Photographer

I had the opportunity to hang my UC Baby 3D Ultrasound display last week, and just realized that I hadn’t blogged with the photo!!

The photo quality isn’t the greatest, but I think it looks fantastic in person, and am really proud of it. There are also several smaller framed pieces throughout the waiting room.

The gallery wrap over the chair is 30″x30″ and the larger piece above the sofa is 30″x40″

If you have  a UC Baby 3D Untrasound appointment scheduled, or know someone who does…..don’t forget to ask for my special discounted session!!!

You can get to the UC Baby website by clicking the logo at the bottom of my blog :)

Sneak Peek: Baby Nathalie | Halifax Child and Baby Photographer

If there is one age that typically strikes fear into the hearts of child photographers…..it is 3-4 months. It’s hit or miss as babe is no longer a newborn,  and not yet sitting on their own.

Not with little Miss Nathalie though……oh my, what a sweet bubbaloo this one was.

All cheeks and nothing but smiles!! I’m saving those ones for the gallery ;)

The whole family is packing up house and heading to Calgary. Dad is being deployed to the Persian Gulf for six months, and mom is going to spend the time “back home”.

Christine, what a treat is was to work with you today. Thank you for “getting it” and giving me free rein. It was like walking into an old friend’s house.

Safe travels to you all….and I look forward to your “Farewell to Nova Scotia” session in the spring!
