Winter blues:: Ajax,Durham Region Photographer Petra King

Sure doesn’t live here!  In our house there is NEVER a dull moment. Boredom is quickly turned into play fights, noise and tons of giggles!  Yes we have a bit of cabin fever but then again who doesn’t?  However we are VERY anxious for Spring to arrive. Earlier this week when Wiarton Willy (our Groundhog) predicted another 6 weeks of winter my kids let out a whoop! LOL

Robyn’s JK class created a cute craft. ( recite to the tune of I’m a little tea pot! ) Check it out!

Of course not to be out done with anything, here are a few of Nathan and his guitar.

Experimenting left handed ( he’s right handed :D )

Another Generation:: Ajax_Oshawa Maternity_Newborn_Family Photographer Petra King

Saturday morning, sun is shining, crisp cold air fills my lungs and I venture out to north Oshawa for a newborn session.  After moving in ;) I was introduced to this little beauty.  As gorgeous as she is, don’t let these sleepy shots fool you.  She is one feisty little girl!  Amazing despite their size and lungs, how long babies are able to fight sleep.  But in the end we won ( insert evil laugh here) lol! 

Alexa had her Great-Grandpa coming to visit that same afternoon. What a blessing and joy for him!  I am sure they had a wonderful afternoon together!

 Tara, Matt thanks so much for your patience,hospitality and chats!

Introducing Miss. Alexa @ 12 days old!  I have some new fav’s!  Thank you!

Blessed Session:: Ajax_Durham Region Family Photographer Petra King

As I’ve grown older I have come to deeply RESPECT and CHERISH all that our parents do for us.  Being a parent and caring for another human being is one of the most greatest gifts that God has given to us. That said, I’d like to introduce to you my WONDERFUL parents!  I am very proud to have such wonderful people I get to  call mom and dad.

Throughout the course of the year, all the laughter, love, tears and endless blessings that surround us all begins with a family. In today’s society, all the devesation and hardships really brings home for me just how thankful I am  for my family.  My adoring, hardworking and loving husband.  My beautiful and healthy children, my sister and neice and nephew and I can’t forget my awesome friends.  Had it not been for the up-bringing of these two wonderful people I wouldn’t be the same person I am today.

So yes I am Blessed…

So with that I leave you with some images of our session together.  Aren’t they cute?   Enjoy them mom and dad.  Look forward to some shots outside this spring!

Hands that minister,pray,play guitar and hug…

So yes I am Blessed.

2010 and the first baby girl:: Ajax_Newcastle Maternity_Newborn_Family Photographer Petra King

I hopped on the 401 yesterday and before long our session started with this little beauty!  Meet Miss. Katie!  She was a doll to photograph!  Squishy, sleepy and cute as a button!  Mom, Grandma and big sis were there keeping me company during the session.  Thank you for allowing me to capture Katie at 12 days old!  These memories will last a lifetime!
