Mounter Family Session

I’ve never had a family session with these guys until now, but worked with Oreon on a number of projects both in photography and in the event industry.  When I started this little business (on the side), I would shoot events mostly, and quite a few were with him. Such a sweet guy and so glad he finally booked with me for his personal session.  I’ve seen his family grow through Facebook and and images we’ve shared with each other over the past couple years.  There are so many photographers out there that every time someone chooses me it makes my heart just a little bit happier especially when those people are in the same industry!

Family sessions are an honour because clients are trusting me to capture the most important thing in their lives. Their families.  I get to leave my mark in a families history and capture them in the moment.  Looking back at my own family photos, the ones where I was 4 and had that nasty bowl cut my mom said was ‘So cute’, I see how much I have grown, my old toys and friends, pets, houses, family members and so on. Guess I’m a sucker for memories.  So to be given the honour is kind of a big deal for me.

These guys were a total dream, sweetest, well behaved kids ever!  And ya, FREAKING adorable!!!! Parents aren’t too bad either.  This session is one of my favourites to date and really glad I could be a part of capturing this time for them.

Harris Family Session

Family Sessions are my fave. I get to see a side of parents I don’t normally see. I know the online version, I know the ones I talk to on the phone, but when you meet and see them with their kids it’s totally different.  Crazy how ‘littles’ change us all!

When Ashleigh booked her session she knew what she wanted, did her research and loved what she saw.  Amazing right! That’s what I want for all my clients. To be excited for their session and to have my images on their walls.  Then I found out both her and her husband are in the creative industry. Talk about pressure!  Some families just want updated photos on their walls or to share with family, but when you know what you want and have expectations and an eye for it…..total game changer! Whatever the reason for your session I want my families to love the final images and I suck with pressure (pressure I create in my own head – I’m sooooo good at that).  I just do what I love and hope they do too.

Quite smitten with the whole session.  Conquered a little bit of fear I guess.  Granted with such sweet little boys, who behaved better than most, and cute easy going parents, my job was easy.  Too easy. Still I love these images and wish I had similar ones on my wall now.  Time to book our own session I think!
