Baby Parker - Calgary Newborn Photographer

Meet Parker!



Just last Sunday I had the absolute pleasure of shooting this little bundle of joy.  I had asked mom and dad to ensure he would be sleepy for the shoot and I had no idea that he would sleep for the entire time!  They also had some adorable outfits planned for a couple of the shots as they are Saskatchewan Roughriders and Detroit Red Wings fans. Even for the maternity photos they brought matching booties for the teams..remember?

I re-arranged their house at my leisure, moving pictures chairs and even taking all the bedding out of the crib... but I did manage to put it back just where I found it all though.

Baby Ryan - Calgary Newborn Photographer

I recently got the chance to photograph a very awesome family!  They graciously opened the door to their home to me for the second time to take over and start moving all the furniture around. Now before you think otherwise I always make sure to put it back right where i found it!

We tried to make sure he was sleepy but he didn't want anything to do with it while I was around!  So we worked with what we were dealt and came away with lots of great images for it! 

Thanks guys for letting me come into your home and photograph such a cute little man!

Enjoy!








Kendras Maternity Shoot - Calgary Maternity Photographer

When I had finished this shoot I ended up without my computer for about a month. So with all this snow today I was able to finally get caught up with all my editing!

So without dragging it on any longer, as it is way overdue here is Kendra's Maternity session!

Enjoy!

Schartner Family/Maternity - Calgary Photographer



The Schartner Family... enough said!

Well maybe not, but that's how I feel.  This is only a small part of a family that means the world to me. Matt is the youngest of the three children from Earle (RIP we all Love and miss You!) and Shirley Schartner.  The Schartner's have been a part of my life for years now, so many that I can't count them.  When I was young the two Schartner boys were some of the closest friends of mine, we have many great memories together.  I am happy to say that they still are!  

I had shot Matt and  Larissa's wedding a few years ago in Airdrie. So I was really excited to do the Maternity shots for the newest member of their family! 

I made the drive out to Shirley's house in Airdrie, where I was going to meet them, and set up the ol' mobile studio downstairs.  When I got to my test shot one of my receiver's shorted out on me and wouldn't work at all (happened when they fell in the wind from a previous shoot.) So I got out my other one just to find out I had left it on and the batteries were dead. No problem I always usually carry lots of extras, and that day I would be without a single spare AAA...

A quick trip to Matt's house to get some, ended with us taking them out of the remote and we were on our way!  I re-learned a lesson that day, maybe even two, and I can guarantee that will never happen again!  Not everything turns out the way I want or plan it, but the pictures always come out just as I want them too!

Matt is an aspiring photographer as well, so I was hoping to be able to spend some extra time with him and go over why I was putting my lights where I was and go through figuring out the exposures, but with my battery error and a shoot scheduled for later that evening I was running out of time if I had! Sorry Matt, next time at the newborn shoot!

I am looking so forward to early January when I will get to do the Newborn photos for them and to meet the newest edition to the Schartner Family, a family I consider part of my family! 




Thanks Matt for the batteries and the great session!
