I'm a photographer, and this blog is all about sharing my work. Through the images presented here I hope you'll experience the fun, energy, honesty and emotion I have been entrusted to document.

I specialize in the photography of family history because I love to create memorable images of real life, both for you and for your entire family. If that sounds interesting, drop me a line. I’d love to talk with you.

Until then, welcome.

A Year in Emily’s Life, Session Three

October 3rd, 2010  
 

I joined Erika, Michael, Christian and Emily at St Anthony’s Church for Emily’s Christening on a bright sunny day…a big change from the snow­storm that walloped Ottawa for Christian’s Christening a few years ago. Emily wore the same dress Erika wore, and I thought Michael would explode with pride.



I’m not sure Emily was as happy as Mom and Dad though…

This is the first session from Erika and Michael’s second Year in the Life, this time for Emily. Congratulations guys, she’s beautiful!





Of course Christian got into the mix too :)

A Year in Jacob’s Life, Session Two

For the second session, I met up with Heather and Louis at the (thank­fully!) air-conditioned home…my car’s ther­mometer read 40? so I was very happy for that!

A Year in Huxley’s Life, Session Five

June 18th, 2010  
 

For this, the fifth and last session in Huxley’s Year in the Life, we returned to the beginning: the same tree where their maternity session was photographed, a year ago almost to the day. It’s So neat to look back over the the images taken over the course of a year…I can’t wait to design their album!

It is not the most spectacular of the set but it works because of the little red toes and feet. It really put the meaning in "growing up". Great idea, adorable result.”

A Year in Emily’s Life, Session One

May 2nd, 2010  
 

Erika and Michael will be familiar to you if you have poked around here before, and I was very happy to hear that these two wonderful people were expecting their second child. Their previous maternity session was done in and around their home, so we put a more urban flair to their maternity session this time around. Between Majors Hill Park and the National Art Gallery, we had a blast and created some great imagery too. She was just about ready to pop, so it won’t be much longer now! :)
