Jemma is turning 18 months old tomorrow.  Does that mean she’s not a baby anymore?  *sniff*  I can’t believe how fast the last year and a half has gone.  My baby isn’t a baby anymore.  : (

As part of my Mother’s Day gifts I got to take the girls out for some photos.  I haven’t gotten any good photos of them together in like, forever.  So, my husband agreed to be my assistant and let me shoot until I was happy.  : )  I was worried that I was going to miss the colourful leaves before they all fell from the trees.  Luckily we found a spot with some colour.  It almost looks like fire behind some of the shots.  The sun was shining from behind through the leaves.  Love it.

Here are a few photos from today.  I think I’m going to have to get a canvas made in celebration of Jemma’s 1 1/2 years.  The colours are too beautiful not to.  : )

Happy Mother’s Day!

I know it’s been quiet on the blog the last few weeks.  I have a good excuse though…  I sprained my ankle.  Apparently it was a “bad” sprain too.  I couldn’t walk for the first week.  Needed crutches for the first two weeks.  I’m still walking with a limp today and I have a cankle that won’t seem to go away.  It’s mighty attractive!  Anyway, enough of my sob story…LOL

I was playing around with natural light in the studio yesterday, using Jolie as my model.  Just thought I’d share a little snap of her for now.  I have a newborn session scheduled for next week, so watch out for the sneak peek!

Ciao for now!

Introducing the winner of the Fresh Faces Contest!  He is so photogenic and has the brightest blue eyes!  I had a great time photographing him and his family today.  There will be a part two sneak peek with the rest of the family coming as well.  : )
