Teenagers - Oh My!!

I had an incredibly fun shoot last night with 5 best friends. They were a hoot and I've found myself some models. I need as much practice as I can get, other than my own two. These ladies were all gorgeous and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Now I need to get them all one on one a little more. I was a little later starting then I had hoped and the weather was threatening to pour on us but we did have a fun hour, sans rain. We went to a local town park but the grass was wet, so some of the poses had to be put on hold til the next time. Once again, thanks so much girls, I loved every minute of it and I hope you did too. Here's a little sneak peek for you. The rest will be coming to the website soon!

Two for One!

Now before everyone gets excited, I'm not offering another special. I've been doing a lot of thinking lately and I'm really, really interested in doing Birth Photography. I know, some people will probably think it's gross but having two children of my own, I know how special, amazing and awe-inspiring birth can be. So I'm curious, if it was available in your area, would you be interested in having it done? I'm not sure how it would work here or even if it would work, since the hospital here has a 2 per room policy in the LDR and there are no home births or birth centers. I am guessing that if someone was interested in this, then they would have to approach their OB/GYN to inquire and see how he/she feels. Again, no guarantees there since it's highly likely that you won't have your own doctor during the delivery. Oh well, I'm sure that if enough people were interested, I could inquire about it further. Anyway, for the time being, here's a poll for you on this subject:

CASTING CALL!!

I am currently looking for some willing models to help me as I continually build my portfolio. Casting call models are required to sign a model release and will receive a complimentary session. I am looking for three categories:

* a fun, loving couple who are up for an urban, downtown shoot
* newborn who is 1 week of age or younger (this is the age when they are generally the sleepiest and the curliest)
* 1 male and 1 female senior

The first ones to contact me regarding any three of the categories will receive a free session, free 8x10 and 10 free custom designed cards (single sided, for newborn shoot only). Casting call models must be willing to sign a model release form. If you are interested, or if you know someone that would be interested, in participating, please contact me. For the newborn session, please contact me before the baby is born so that I can make arrangements in my schedule for you.

Anticipation!

Meet Carlos and Amanda. We go a ways back, a good 15 years now. Amanda and I met in Grade 9, she sat behind me in homeroom, I constantly turned around and talked to her and she was the one that got in trouble. I should add here that she never actually said a word or very rarely! Despite that, her and I became best friends throughout our high school year.

After high school, we kept in touch periodically and she helped me with the music for my wedding. I moved to Kingston, ON in 2002 after I got married and unfortunately, we lost touch. Her and Carlos started dating in 1997 and have been together ever since. They got married in 2007 and are eagerly anticipating the arrival of little Austin.

I had a ton of fun with these two, I didn't want to go home! Can't wait to meet your little man, he's going to be so gorgeous!
