When I think of this mother the first word that comes to mind is STRONG. It is not often that you run into a young mom that is so dedicated and excited about motherhood. -”I love your long hair, your little fingers & toes your beautiful eyes & your cute button nose I look at you & all I can do is smile, knowing your my beautiful child.  I love you Logan I will do anything in this world for you always & forever.” I am so proud of this young lady, she has overcome such a heart-rendering event in her life with her first born-”feels so blessed to have the chance to be a mother again, for having such a supportive positive family surrounding me …..still miss & love our ceili baby everyday ”

Needless to say that when I found out she was pregnant with Logan I had to do her Maternity Pictures and I had to take Pictures of Logan after he was born. I will share her Maternity Later but today I want to share this sweet little ray of sunshine. He made my heart melt today and made me so grateful that I am so blessed with such loving people in my life.

So if you know a young mom just like this amazing mom-to-be who has an amazing story to share, send her my way because I just might be able to brighten her day.

I do not really Blog much about me nor do I like being on the other side of the camera but lately I have been teaching my husband some tricks and he  has been trying to get better with his skills. We love taking pictures and often I find that I never take enough of myself or my kids. I have lot’s of him…he is so photogenic! But this is me…

My dad is Croatian so I get my bright beautiful eyes from him. They change with my mood and the light and I love accentuating them with my different eye shadows. I am a Mac girl and love Sephora. When I was in Vegas for WPPI me and Kim From Studio 9 Photographics and Jill from J Shantz photography went shopping at Sephora and I got this wicked triple threat tattoo eye liner by Kat Von D. OMGoodness–it’s Amazing and I love it! I promise one day I will take more pictures of me. But this brings me to my babies. I love photographing newborns and I feel I just don’t share enough of my sessions. I would have to blog daily to share them all. SO here are a few more of the latest and greatest.

My youngest daughter doesn’t really take well to other children and maybe it is because she is so close to us. But putting her in preschool at woodvale has really opened her up. The programs are amazing and the teachers are top knotch. I blogged one of her teachers session here. The great thing is, we are finally doing play dates and she has taken well to her new little friend. These girls both have older sisters so they seem to connect really well. It was our turn to host the play date so we had a princess tea party and then I took them for some pictures. I added some head bands from pooks and lulu to add a little fancy to their shoot. My daughter has the blue head band on and wouldn’t take individual photos for me, but thats not anything new. It was just nice to have fun with the girls and take time out of my day to enjoy the little things. “Happy Girls are the Prettiest – Audrey Hepburn”

Being a newborn photographer in Edmonton is always rewarding. This sweet little princess was a joy to photograph.

Their is one prop I have that my clients ALL want to use. Yes, it is the wagon. We got it at The Old Strathcona Antique Mall which is owned locally by a good friend and her mom.Can you believe I purchased this gem for only $7 and it has lasted me a good 3 years. I love it and I love posing newborns in it too. As a newborn photographer you have to be unique and you have to set yourself apart from others and by shopping at unique stores like an antique store you can find props that no one else would have. It’s a start and shopping for newborn props has turned into an obsession at times. Sometimes I find myself spending $200 a week on new things but it is so worth it and I love seeing my newborns in them.

Another thing I love about my job is that I get to see these babies through out their growth. I even sen this little guy with his mom at an exercise class I attend. Awee.. I love what I do!

This little girl was such a pleasure to photograph. Mom and dad were so excited and I travelled to their beautiful home by buffalo lake to this this shoot. The windows were to DIE for!! Oh I miss it there.

Four different newborns all captured within a few days of each other and I couldn’t wait to share some sneak peeks! The little blonde boy belongs to this couple and I couldn’t believe all the hair he had! The little sweetie in the maroon flower belongs to the mommy who’s belly is pictured here, while the purple hat baby belongs to this wonderful couple. and I have yet to post the maternity of the other mom. It has been quite a year so far with my moms and babies. I am so booked and busy and I love it!  Nothing is more wonderful that doing what you love and I cannot thank you guys enough for allowing me the opportunity to capture these precious moments. Well it is now time, I have been talking about it forever and I am going to VEGAS on Sunday!!! I decided to bring my camera and I hope to share with you the fun I had!
