Baby Photographer North Vancouver

photocrati galleryBaby photographer in North Vancouver

I met the sweetest little girl, Maelle.  She came to get her newborn baby pictures done and I think she is one of the most beautiful babies that I have photographed.  She has perfect creamy skin and sweet fluffy hair.  Thank you Maelle!  I loved photographing her in all the sweet little positions; she looked so precious and slept in all of them, making my job super easy.  Almost makes me want to have another…..almost 😉

The newborn stage is such a fun time to capture.  They change so quickly and it is so easy to forget how teeny tiny they were and how much they sleep…..mostly because it feels like they never sleep 😉  I make sure to document their little toes, their flaky skin, their puffy lips and perfect fingers.  Mom and Dad will cherish looking back and seeing how much their babies have grown and changed.

Maelle was a star to photograph, well on her way to a supermodel career 🙂

Vancouver Newborn | baby Leo

Baby Leo

Ahhhh baby Leo was a dram to shoot.  He was so peaceful and content to be arrange, posed and cuddled by his big brother Oliver.  He was born a bit early and so has the svelte body that all us of dream of 😉 and so super cute.  What a perfect little face he has; he looks just like his big bro!  Photographing siblings is always sweet but these two were amazing….after Oliver took a few pictures of Leo, he cuddled right into him and look at him with wonder and then with smiles.  So so sweet – picture perfect for real.  Those are the moments we as parents want to remember.  How teeny tiny they were as newborns and how in awe their siblings are of them.  They appreciate the little toes and fingers and question every sound their little brothers and sisters make.  Later on, these two will love seeing these pictures of them.  They will be amazed that they were ever that small.  These images will even be shown to their kids…crazy!! It was fun to photograph Leo in similar ways that we shot Oliver, same poses and little hats.  It is pretty cool to see the comparison.  What a great job I have, to hang out with such great families and capture how they are growing and changing.

I feel like I knew this little newborn before he was even born.  I first met Kirsten and Wade at their cousin’s wedding – a very fun wedding 🙂 and next heard from them when they were pregnant with little Noah.  We met at Burnaby Beach to capture Kirsten’s maternity pictures and she was just glowing.  It is amazing how pregnancy just adds a certain glow to women.  Kirsten is already a stunner but just extra gorgeous with a pregnancy glow.  A few weeks later, Noah made his appearance and I was super excited to meet this little baby.  Kirsten was worried that he would rebel and not sleep through his newborn session, but he was a total star.  He had his bottle and then settled in to a nice floppy sleep.  We were able to get many beautiful pictures of this beautiful guy.  I love photographing this stage, it is so special.   To capture their little fingers, toes and expressions.  They are still so squishy and moldable <3  Wade is a big fisher so we set up a little picture with a fishing net and rod – super cute!  Knowing that parents can look back on these newborn images and be reminded of the squishiness and tiny features of their children is so fantastic.  What a treasure.  It even means a lot to that baby to grow up and see the portraits of them.  My kids love looking at their baby pictures and are often struck with wonder at how much they grown and changed.  I think they really feel the value and love in these images.  My daughter, Isla often gets a bit teary at how “little and cute” she was (in my books still is ;))  Pictures are our history, our memories and our love.  Start with the freshness of your newborn, you will never regret it.

Ambleside Family Pictures

I always have a great photographing this lovely family.  I first met them at Gymboree when Aiden was just a year old…since then I have photographed them at least once a year.  A few years later along came Damien, who is now 3!  I feel a bit old 😉  Aiden and Damien are super cute and always are well behaved and listen – yay!  They make my job super fun & easy.  Their parents are super easy going too and always have great ideas for images.  Arieanna does super cool things with the images, like art collages, Christmas cards and calendars.  She also uses some of them on her blog, Active Mama.  A great resource for all you North Shore Mamas 🙂

This shoot we met at Ambleside Beach in West Van to do their family pictures.  A cool spot is over by the train bridge – it adds a neat industrial feel to the images as well as giving the option of pretty scenery images too.  We lucked out and got most of the shoot in prior to the torrential rain fall 🙂

Thanks for having me capture your family!

Family Pictures in Stanley Park

I was so excited to meet the Ball family and capture their family in pictures.  Their family is so gorgeous, not only in style and looks but they’re so genuine and warm that you can’t help but feel happy in their presence. The four boys are super cute and charming…..Moms lock up your daughters 😉 and were a blast to shoot.  We managed to photograph them both as they are and a few posed ones too.  I love the way they played together and threw the rugby ball around with their parents.  It is so true that a family that plays together stays together.  We were lucky to have such a beautiful day and glorious sunset and the light just glows around them in the pictures.  We even were able to capture a few of the super moon that night.  Sessions like this feed my creativity.  Thank you guys for picking me 🙂
