Ladner family photographer -1,2,3 - Bellaphoto

So... how many people have seen a family session with a 1, 2, and 3 year old!!!! Crazy right? I knew it would be wild, so we just embraced it and I love the natural feel of this session! Though it looks like a cozy shoot at home, this session actually took place in my Tsawwassen photo studio! WHAT!! I know. I have had the amazing honor of shoot this fam since the beginning, and I can't believe how it has grown, and how quickly... but... these parents are AMAZING. I would be a mess, and they are so super chill, funny and caring.. and it totally reflects in their kidlets. This session was right after a month long trip to Cambodia.. I have problems taking my 2 kids to the grocery store. Fun fun fun!

These are some of my favorite people in the whole world. Seriously. I love. My most favorite memories of Mikey involve sitting in my tiny apartment in Vancouver, eating cream puffs and watching America's Next Top model. My second favorite memory of Mikey is reading his weekly recaps of said Top Model episodes. I am not writing this from my phone i would post that smiling crying face. so good. I was so happy when he met the love of his life Danielle, and I started to capture their family as it grew. I am oh so subtly hatching a plan to make their darling son, my son in law one day... I think him and D would make beautiful babies. This session took place during my Christmas mini session in Steveston BC. What a fun place for a family session!

Blogging time!!! I am finally starting to make up for months of non-blogging months! This session was amazing because, well not only is the family STUNNING, but this is my AMAZING newborn assistant Danita. She is a kick-ass momma to 3 beautiful girls, and now she helps me!!! I was so excited to go to her house today for an 4 hour play date (the kids were adorable) and drink roughly 1.5 pots of coffee. Playdate for the win! This is one of my most favorite places in Ladner for a family photo session, it's in gorg. (you would never know it's basically in a parking lot). bloggy blogerson.

Richmond Family Photographer - Beach session- Bellaphoto

Okay first off.. the sky. That is REALLY for reals what it looked like in Richmond that night for our family session. I was basically jumping up and down.

There are so many reasons for a family session. Some people do it like clock work, to capture the progression of time. Some to celebrate an event, and other to remember a time in their lives.

This session was to not only capture these beautiful kids at the age they are, but also to celebrate this gorgeous momma's graduation and new position as a Midwife at South Delta Midwifery!

and again.. that sky...!

This ^^^ This is why extended family session are so so so important. I love extended family sessions, and capturing the littles with the bigs, the older with the newer. It makes my heart happy.

This was such a fun session, not only was everyone STUNNING, they all had the best senses of humor and totally laughed at my lame lame jokes. Even thought it was pretty chilly in Tsawwasen, I think the laughing helped keep us warm. <3

White Rock Family session - Bellaphoto- tsawwassen family photography

AHH!! LOVED this session. There are a few reasons why. First off it was the first time I had been to the Historic Stewart farm in White Rock, which is SO cool. Second, this is one of my first family photography clients! This is our 4th year of photos together and it's amazing to see these kids grown up <3
and i swear mom is only getting younger and more beautiful.

Tsawwassen family photography- Baby P 6 month session- Bellaphoto

6 months is such an awesome age for a session! They are usually sitting up, but aren't crawling, and basically everything we do is interesting to them.
I couldn't help but squeal with delight when mom and dad brought this sweet girl in to my Tsawwassen studio, and I saw that she was a ginger!!  Her hair, with her eyes... she is just perfect!
