Spring has Sprung...with bunnie rabbits!

One of things I most look forward to in the new year is my first round of mini sessions. While I do these often throughout the years, noting major holidays and the like, the Easter sessions with the bunnies are without a doubt my favourite. The kids come in, all dressed up in the most adorable outfits! Their reactions to the bunnies are absolutely priceless and the bunnies themselves... need I say more? The combination is just an overload of cuteness.

I often like to create my own backdrops, adding to a little uniqueness to each round of minis. This year I went with a chalk board drawing. I created a drawing with a blossoming tree and a colourful banner in the corners, Sporting tulips and dasiey's dotted the bottom between a bunny and some bright Easter eggs and wooden creates as the setting area.

One of the things I look forward to most around Easter is all the yummy food, and of course those savory left overs! Sadly there are some people who are not as fortunate to enjoy these traditions of the holidays, which is why for my Easter and Christmas mini sessions I offer discounts for clients who bring in non perishable food items for Project Share. During Christmas I was overjoyed to see that the bin was just about full a little more then 2/3s. This Easter, just shy of about 5 items, the bin was full! BETTER THEN CHRISTMAS! Which means I've upped my goal for Christmas. I am hoping for a bin and a half! And since I have such amazing clients, I have no doubt that this is possible.

Here are some of the cuties that visited the studio for their Easter Photos. And Don't forget! I'll be doing mommy and me mini sessions for Mother's Day as well.

Frequently Asked Questions about Boudoir.

Boudoir.  It's exciting It's inciting And it's confusing and intimating all at the same time!  If you are thinking about a boudoir I'm sure you have some pretty big questions on the top of your head. That's fine. I mean it's not everyday you are standing half naked in front of a perfect stranger.  So you have questions... I've got answers. Q: Boudoir. Pornography. What’s the difference? A: Well for starters Boudoir is suggestive, while porn is... well you know. And you don’t have to be complete nude or revel anything at all when it comes to boudoir photographs. One of the most important things about being sexy is being confident. If you feel that way wearing jeans, by all means, wear jeans! Or a button down men’s dress shirt. Sure why not? Classy, suggestive, and flirty. Q: Can you Photoshop my images? A: If you would like to have say, stretch marks, a scar, that unwanted, embarrassing tattoo from when you were 16...

Bohemian Beach Goddess

A while back, when the weather was just starting to get nice again I did a shoot with the beautiful Malissa Otting. Malissa came to me with this great idea of bohemian beach style photo session. Of course I was on board. No normally I do shoots with MUA Griffin Shields, however the date and time of this shoot Griffin was unavailable so I worked with up and coming mua Sarah Stechyshyn. When I was first starting out Sarah was one of my very first models. And that is one thing I love about my job, the wonderful people you and the long term friendships you create along the way. We meet Malissa at her apartment for hair, make up and wardrobe. The beach we shot at was just a ways down the street from there. The beach itself was pretty cool. It was quiet with a small run off that trailed into the water. The remains of what were once board walks and boating docks protruded from the sand and water, parts of the wood had small plants growing from them. The sand was lined with trees and shrubs....

Choosing Your Location, Fall Addition

It's that time of year again where the weather changes and vibrant hues surround us. So looking for a place to take photos may be different than a place in the summer or winter that you enjoyed. Choosing a location that best suits you and your comfort level is important. It is good to pick somewhere that will make your session memorable and pleasing for you. Find a place that fits well with your personality and gets you to enjoy your experience. Some of my favorite places in the Fall time are Morningstar Mill, Malcolmson Eco Park both in St Catharines. As well as Firemans Park in Niagara Falls, McFarland House in Niagara on the Lake, and Balls Falls in Vineland.  Morningstar Mills is a heritage site located at Decew Falls. This site features a beautiful working mill rebuilt in 1872 and is surrounded with trees and water. It is a good naturalistic place to go, especially in the fall time when there are numerous colors all around you and a beautifully built mill overlooking some wate...
