Tsawwassen baby photography- L is 1! -

This session was VERY special to me, as little L was one of my first newborns when I decided I wanted to specialize in newborn and family photography, and opened and in home studio in Tsawwassen BC.

Not only was she one of my first newborns, she was my FIRST session in my NEW awesome Tsawwassen photo studio. 

It was an exciting year for me and I am so happy this family could be a part of it.

#squish :)

enjoy the cuteness.

Then we got craaazy ;)

A blustery day in the 100 acre wood - Tsawwassen BC

These people.. I love these people. Unfortunately, after moving to opposite sides of the lower mainland, and you know.. kids... we just don't get to spend as much time together as I wish we could.

How I miss watching weekly top model episodes with Mikey.. and his ever present impressive supply of costco cream puffs.

But sadly... things change, but one thing that does change, it I get my twice years family session in with this cool bunch.

This year, they took the trek all the way from North Vancouver, to Tsawwassen for their family photo session! Even 100 km/hr winds weren't going to stop us.

I love the ease of their outfits, simple, but color popping that really adds depth. Big brother G is one of my favorite little boys ever. look at the hair, eyes, smile.. heart stopping :)

Tsawwassen Newborn Photographer - baby party!

I had SUCH a cool weekend!

For the past 2 years I have been part of an amazing online photography group, the ladies (mostly ladies) are SO cool, helpful, supportive,  funny, all around awesome.

I actually tend to talk to many of these girls more than I talk to my IRL friends.

A few months ago I was chatting with Lindsey Williams about how close we are, her living in Portland Oregon, and Me living in Ladner BC.

We joked around how we should get together and do a few sessions... and that is EXACTLY what we  did!!

3 babies, and SO MUCH POOP later, we were able to capture some gorg. shots in my Tsawwassen studio.

Not only did we totally photo nerd out. we also did a ton of knitting and watching terrible Kristen Stewart movies :)

All in all an awesome weekend.

Next meet up... Ashland Ohio!! :)

Tsawwassen family photography || The B family- Bellaphoto

Wow.. my first blog post in months.. I guess being too busy to blog is a good thing right ;)

When picking images, I usually have a few favorites I like to feature, this whole session was my favorite. It was cold, windy, cloudy, even so, everything came together (in my eyes) magically. I love this Tsawwassen location for family photography.

It also doesn't hurt that is family is ridiculously good looking, AND mom has a wicked fashion sense. Though clothing choices don't "make" the image, they definitely play a part in setting the mood for the session. Less talk, more Rock, check out one of my new fav sessions.

Tsawwassen family photography - Bellaphoto- Fall colors

Sigh.... This is one of my favorite sessions... I think I always say that, but really, I LOVED this family.

Initially momma had called wanting a session for her baby girl, and maybe some family shots....

but seriously. these people are GORGEOUS, how could I not feature each of them!

 I had such an awesome time capturing their family. 

Big brother was by far the BEST 2 (almost 3 year old) I have ever photographed.  I knew it was going to be a good day when he walked up to me and said, "okay I am ready for my picture" with a big smile.
Fall was just beginning, and the warm butterytones, just make my heart melt!

Back to school minis!|| Bellaphoto|| Tsawwassen children's photography|| Tsawwassen BC||

These are one of my favorite sessions of the year!!
I think I would be perfectly content in life if all I did was taking photos of gorgeous 5-8 year olds. Seriously. Best ever.

Don't get me wrong, I loves me some babies, but there is something about this age, it's almost like they haven't had the insecurities of the world placed on them yet, they KNOW they are awesome.

Even though school.. might not be on for a while.. I was so happy to have these "Back to school minis"!

As you can see, my love of all things vintage, spilled over in to this set.. as per the usual.

This time, the majoirty of my set came from my awesome friend Brittany at Painted with Love. Brittany has an amazing eye for vintage treasures, and with some guidence I was able to use a product from her shop, Miss Mustard Seed's milk paint, to update this old ladder in to  an amazing prop!  If you want to learn how to make your own vintage gems, check out PWL's classes HERE.


now.. on to the cuteness!! Here is just a sample of last weekend!
