The S family - Comox Valley family photography - Bellaphoto

My favourite part of being a newborn photographer, is seeing "my" babies grow up!

I remember so clearly doing this little man's newborn photo session, and since moving to the Comox Valley, I have been able to return to my old town for Family photo session! 

This rad fam came to see me during a recent round of family sessions in Tsawwassen. Sidenote I totally think this momma is aging backwards, she looks younger every time I photograph her!.

Babies are always a blessing, but it seems extra special when they come after years of hope.

This momma is extra special to me because she is helping me raise one of my own babies... okay he is a fur baby, but I love him almost as much as my human babies.

When Megan from Poochies Comox Valley told me about her long road to getting this healthy happy little muffin, I was BEYOND excited for her session.

Normally in a 3 month session, we just hope to get a shot of baby looking at the camera, my photographer friend Beth from Beth W photography says "eye contact is the goal, but a smile is a gift" with 3 month old sessions. Not only did we get eye contact and smiles, but she also FELL ASLEEP!!! and we got those "sleepy baby" photos I love so much. 

Seriously the most beautiful baby

The G family newborn session - Campbell River newborn photographer - Bellaphoto

I love when siblings come in studio for their baby's newborn photo session. These clients traveled all the way from Campbell River for their baby session, and the results were amazing.

I love that I still have amazing clients from my old town that will "wait" for me to travel back for their family photography session. I have been photographing these gorgeous twins since they were teeny tiny. It's amazing how different these girls look, but when you see mom and dad it COMPLETELY makes sense. I love seeing these stunning faces. 

Summer Family session - Comox Valley - Bellaphoto

This family has the best hair of ANY families I photograph, and they  definitely earned that title when they arrived with a new puppo, WITH MATCHING HAIR!!! I have been shooting these girls for years, and I can't believe how old they are getting, it's such a joy capture their family photo session. 

Farm cake Smash - Comox Valley cake smash - Bellaphoto

I love customizing sessions to a family. When this awesome momma contacted me about her son's first birthday cake smash we started talking ideas! She mentioned he likes dinosaurs, but then said "well he is a farm kid"... and together we decided it would be amazing to do his first birthday photos on their farm in Dove Creek!. 

The location didn't disappoint, and neither did this smiley little muffin! I absolutely love outdoor cake smashes, and finished off with a bubble bath made it even more special.
