Ella~ Before & After: Kelowna Maternity & Newborn Photography

I had so much fun with this gorgeous mama.  Her friends really love her…they got her a gift certificate for belly photos;)  We started off with some photos at her house but I had so much fun with her that I convinced her to let me photograph her some more…outside…in the glorious evening sun. I seriously could show off all 96 photos that came out of this session…but I won’t…here’s my most very favorites:)

Then…in October little Ella was born. She was so cute..this tiny little bundle and sooo loved.  We snuck in a newborn session while her daddy was home from his job out of town….I got lots of snuggles, my favorite part about my job photographing newbies.

Kohl: Kelowna Newborn & Family Photography

Meet Kohl….he was born in July too! I met his dad Kevin when I bought my van from him. I LOOOOOVE my Dodge Caravan. Seriously, never did I think I’d be a mini-van owner..but I love my van. I can fit a 7′ sofa in there which comes in super handy for those large outdoor family photos that require a cool huge green couch to make it just perfect…but I digress. If you need a new vehicle, go see Kevin at Okanagan Dodge. He will no doubt hook you up with something cool to drive. Anyways…enough about my wheels…check out his super sweet little boys.

Elise & Daryl: Kelowna Wedding Photography

July 30 Elise and Daryl got married at Summerhill Winery. The lovely and talented Simone was my assistant yet again. She and I make a pretty fantastic team, if I do say so myself;)We started off at her sister’s place as she got ready.  Melanie Feeny did a great job with Elise’s makeup and everyone seemed to be chilling out and having a few pre-wedding beverages, no nerves anywhere to be found.

The day was beautiful (if not a little hot) but they were both cool as a cucumber. They opted to do a “first look” and see each other before the ceremony. It was so beautiful…watching Daryl’s face as he was standing there waiting for his gorgeous bride-to-be come up behind him. The smile on his face when he knew she was close was just priceless…you can see for yourself in these photos. It brought tears to our eyes, and his;)

The look on the marriage commissioner’s face when he saw Elise walking up the isle is just priceless:)

 

Brayden: Kelowna Newborn and Family Photography

Meet Brayden (and his cute older brother Joshua). Little Brayden was born in July (I’m a LITTLE behind on blogging) and he was a little superstar client. Quickest newborn session EVER, he slept right through it all and was a total treat for me.

We met up again a few days later for some outdoor photos…I just LOVE doing newborn photos outside if the weather permits. Here’s a few favorites:

Emmeline~Before & After: Kelowna Maternity & Newborn Photography

I met Mike and Stacey at the end of June to do some maternity photos. She wasn’t due for a few weeks but they wanted to make sure they didn’t miss the opportunity.

Then, on July 28th, sweet little Emmeline was born.  She was so sweet, slept almost the entire time and I just couldn’t get enough of her.  She was full of smiles for me…I wanted to keep her but her parents are head over heels in love and wouldn’t let me;)
