wildflower session {victoria portrait photographer}

We had another great day for a wildflower session in the park.  I photographed this family a few years back, so it was great to meet them all again.  

so little and so precious {victoria baby photographer}

This beautiful baby girl was just 5 days old when I photographed her last week.  So precious and tiny.

A big thank you again to Denise's mom for making me this beautiful colorful blanket which I love using.

 

an afternoon at the beach {victoria children's photographer}

Last weekend we met at Willows Beach to take some family pictures.  An overcast day, not too cold, a few drizzles, but beautiful even light for some great captures.  I have known both children since they were newborns and I have taken their pictures over the past few years.  It never stops to amaze me how quickly they change and I love to see their different personalities grow and shine.

little sweetie {victoria childrens photographer}

I had so much fun photographing this young lady.  She was chatty, curious, and super cute.  And she brought along her big Bernese Mountain Dog which we tried to get in the picture as well.  A bit of a challenge because he liked the ocean too much and ended up in the water many times.  And thanks to mom, we had lots of colorful outfits and props to play with.

sunshine, flowers and two girls {victoria childrens photographer}

Two of my favorite girls to photograph.  The perfect day for it, lots of props to play around with.  I wasn't the only one who had fun I think.

back in time {victoria portrait photographer}

This session was in the planning stages for months.  My friend Erin organized the amazing dresses (which are for sale on Etsy if you are interested in purchasing them).  Bridget was kind enough to let us use them for this shoot.  Hair and makeup was done by Erin who really rocked.  She also helped me with all the other minor and major details of this session.  And the girls, well, the girls were so excited, it was easy to get great pictures of them.  They were totally into it and had a lot of fun, so did Erin and I.  Lots and lots of images, but here are just a few I liked.  If you are interested in having a styled session done, please drop me a line.  

butterflies and bubbles {victoria family and children's photographer}

This was a lovely family session in the park.  I photographed the now big brother a long time ago.  Since then, they had a new addition to the family, a sweet little girl.  Here a few favorites from their session.

Can't wait to meet the next addition to this lovely family.  The little guy was quite the character and stole my heart.  We never told him to show his belly off, just a natural thing to do for him.  Mom has a belly, he has a belly that needs to be seen.  

first spring rays {victoria baby and children's photographer}

Ahh, spring.  Finally we can go out without freezing and take pictures.  This little cutie turned 6 months.  A serious little girl who takes in everything.  I even brought our little dog to get some smiles from her.  

project 333 {victoria portrait and wedding photographer}

Project 333 is a personal project which was inspired by some other photographers I met during a workshop last year.  I started this project shortly after the year started, so it is save to assume that I will probably not cover an entire year with 365 pictures.  There will always be days when I just don't get around to shoot an image.  All daily images are posted on my personal facebook site.  I already started to work on my album layout for this project.  It will be a wirebound book with about 100 pages.  I love this book template from Volume 25 which is perfect for my project.  Here are a few pages I already designed from the past two months.

elaine & felix engaged {victoria portrait and wedding photographer}

First engagement session of this year.  I am looking forward to documenting the couple's upcoming wedding in August.

book your spring session {victoria portrait photographer}

With Spring just around the corner, here is an early special.  If April holds up with not too much rain, it could be fun to get some early portraits of your children done.  And with some luck the flowers in Beacon Hill might be out as well.  Regardless, there is never a bad time to capture some memories.

If you are interested in the special, drop me a line for more details.  Only 10 spots are available, so hurry to get your spot.

three little girls {victoria children photographer}

These three are just too cute.  The two older ones are very proud of their little sister, now six months old.  I am looking forward to meeting them again in six months.
