Flower Farm Mini’s 2021

Flower Farm Mini 2021

Flower farm mini’s are back and almost sold out! Book now before it’s too late!

This yearly tradition is one of my faves and Country Cut Flowers never disappoints. Who doesn’t want to be surrounded by gorgeous flowers?! There are two options for these sessions with the barn setting and the field of flowers. The field is wide open so I have limited these spaces to the last three of each date. Unless we get overcast weather.  The barn offers an old wood fence, barn with boards and stone as well as lots of flowers! This area is amazing for families with little ones who have an earlier bed time as it is shaded earlier and we don’t have to worry as much about golden hour times.

Limited spaces available on each date. Don’t delay in booking as these sell out every year!

August 16, 2021

August 24, 2021 – ONLY 1 Space available

Sept 14, 2021 – ONLY 3 Spaces Available

Flower Farm Mini Session

 

Family :: Pereira-Vincec

Family photography has changed a lot. It’s less structured, less about coordinating outfits, and more about capturing memories.

I love families with multiple children. The more the better. Yes there are more kids to wrangle, but the whole purpose of a session with me is to capture your family however they are. If your kids like to run? I’ll run with them. If they are shy? I have a few tricks up my sleeve for that too. Your husband hates his photo taken? I bet by the time he realizes what’s going on, we will have some amazing memories of him and his kids.

This family is no different. I was able to give a little guidance and let them do their thing. Kids will be kids and those smiles shine through when they are allowed to be themselves.  Dancing, sparklers, collecting things along the path.  All the little details make the final gallery tell the story like it should be. I had so much fun at this shoot and made some friends in the process.  I really do love my clients and what I get to do for a living. Family photography is my new fave session!

Family :: Henechowicz

Family portraits are quickly becoming an annual thing for a lot of families. Little ones grow so fast, families change, furry friends are added. Unlike in the past, these sessions are less posed and more about capturing the individual family for who they are. All those things that make them unique and make them so amazing.  Moments like sisters holding hands, mom and dad laughing at a toothless grin, or even kids seeing their parents hugging and laughing.  It’s less about the perfect smiling photo (which I still try to capture) and more about the moment. More about the details that make a family who they are.  Sessions shouldn’t be cookie cutter as no two families are alike.

This little family was such a pleasure to work with.  Despite a slight fear of sparklers, the moments we captured will last a life time.  Missing teeth, shyness, baby number 3 waiting to be announced. It’s why I love photographing families so much! Family portraits never looked so good!

Newborn :: Roxie

Thornhill Newborn Photographer

Photographing newborns is one thing. Throw in siblings and all you can do is hold your breath and hope for the best.  Every so often you get cooperation and with a little magic, you capture something no parent can live without.

Babies are irresistible but older siblings taking pride in their new brother or sister is just simply beautiful. Kind of makes you want to freeze the moment and just stare at them.  In reality you have a millisecond to take the picture and pray no one blinked, sneezed, made a weird face or even got up and left.  Small kids definitely test your skills as they give you one shot then take off like they have things to do and places to be. So when miracles happen and I can show parents images like these, I really do feel like I’ve done my job right.

Seriously in love with this little girl. So calm, quiet and just plain photogenic.  So excited to see her grow up just like her sisters!

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.
