“The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men / Gang aft agley.” ~ Robert Burns
Being a newborn photographer, I am often asked, “How do you get a baby to do that?”….or, “How do you keep the babies asleep?”
And the truth is, I don’t always. And that’s ok.
Enter little Miss Julia, nineteen days new.
Inquisitive. Content. Loved.
Perfect.

Lily Marybeth is a dream baby. Not just for me as a newborn photographer, but for her parents whose love for her fills their home. You can feel it when you walk in, and you can see it on their faces.
Another champion sleeper, we got a ton of great images and I promised to share just a quick few tonight.
Lucy and Roy, I know how much you were looking forward to seeing these, and I hope I don’t disappoint. It was difficult choosing which ones to blog, but I think these three are a perfect summary of how I will most remember your session. That full head of hair, and the way you both adore her. I am honored to have shared the time with you.

What a gorgeous day today was….and it started out with this ball of sunshine!
Seriously……could you not just eat him up?!
Mommy Angie was super excited for today’s session, having followed the blog for a long time. It’s super flattering and great motivation for a fun session……gumballs and lemons on a sunny Saturday morning? Yes please!!
Here’s the peek I promised you…..I didn’t forget ♥
One newborn can be challenging enough to photograph…..two….can be downright difficult.
Unless it’s these two.
Good as gold, they slept for five hours.
FIVE HOURS.
All of my babies are the best, but these two peanuts were hands down the easiest to photograph.
If you are fortunate enough to know Kelly and Mike, you know just how much wishing and hoping came before this special arrival.
Lauren and Danielle are two very special, very loved, very lucky little girls.

If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you may remember baby Nathalie from October. She was just 3 months old back then, and her Daddy Phil was getting ready for a 6 month tour of duty in the Persian Gulf while Mommy Christine and big sister Arianne headed to Calgary.
Phil returned home safe and sound not long ago, and as the whole family enjoys their last few weeks in the Maritimes, we headed out for their Farewell to Nova Scotia session!
To many, today may not have seemed like beach weather, but for a photographer, it was perfect. Beautiful , soft lighting and just enough showers to keep away the sand flies.
Nault family, it has been a real pleasure getting to know you, and I wish you nothing but safe travels and happiness.
I hope you like some of my favorites ♥
She’s such a little thing. Full of personality and charm.
She loves her brothers, makeup, hip hop, pretty clothes, bananas and dirt.
She’s not quite two.
She’s perfect.
She’s ours.
