6 Month Session

July 26, 2010

I was out driving looking for places to take clients and saw this beautiful bright yellow canola field not too far from my place.  When we went there 2 days later, the field wasn’t as bright as when I first saw it.  Instead we took photos in this patch of wildflowers, which I think looks even better!  That whitish blob on the lower left is their dog Bailey.  He still made it in the photo, sorta!

Baby and his dog.  Kids really have a special relationship with their first pet.  My daughter loves our dog Emma and is the first thing she looks for when she gets up.  If she is grumpy or sad, Emma can always cheer her up. I’m sure Zachary will feel the same way about Bailey as he gets older.

Babies at this age are so curious!  The world is so new and amazing to them, a flower or even a carrot is so interesting.

It was also so HOT outside, we had to go into the studio for some pics and to cool off.

Much better being inside with air conditioning and no clothes on!

I’m glad we waited all day to get some more photos outside.  I love golden evening light, and another plus was it wasn’t scorching hot outside anymore!


I strongly recommend on-location sessions for families with little boys.  You can then see them in “action”, being who they really are, jumping, playing, running…and you get genuine smiles and laughter.  These two little boys were no exception and loved being outside at Kinsmen park in Edmonton.  There were playgrounds, bubbles, super slides, a picnic and painting!  We had a blast and hope you did too!

Happy, energetic, independent and smart big brother.  He knew the words carnivore, omnivore, and excavate…I’d say that is a pretty advanced vocabulary for a four year old!

Look at those soulful eyes.  Baby brother was so easy going and sweet.  Whatever activity we introduced, he was totally absorbed and patiently did whatever we wanted him to do until we said “next”.  From digging in the sand, to painting, he loved it all!

Those are some awesome trucks! I saw some other kids at the park eyeing them.

Great job Mom on bringing some “photogenic” food!  That snack looks delicious…and healthy too!


The boys did a great job painting on the canvas!  It looks like Lucas is saying, “I have an idea!” I think you may have an artist on your hands Mom!

A priceless work of art.  Hope you enjoy the painting for years to come!

Usually it only takes me a couple of days to get a sneak peek up, but this one has been nearly a week! I know this mom is waiting to see the photos, so to make it up to her, I am posting more photos than usual. Enjoy!

Kisses for mommy!

Such beautiful kids, and well behaved too!

This family looks like they have a lot of fun together.



This little boy is one of the most easy-going, happy kids I know (and stylish too!)


Doesn’t he look just like his baby brother? Haha…that is him almost 2 years ago!  Love love love his grin and cute little dimple.
