A newborn baby boy bound for Bahamas

It's funny how our life path is at times isn't it?  It must be a good 16+ something years since I'd seen this sweet baby boy's mama.  We've both clocked thousands of miles,countries,continents since then, but I was lucky enough to reconnect with her and capture some sweet images of her newborn son. Meet Oliver!  Oliver is just visiting us before he makes the trip overseas to live with mom and dad in Bahamas!  We had so much fun at our session. Odette, thank you!  And a special thanks to your mom too. It was awesome seeing her again.

Sweet 6 month old baby: Durham Region Baby Photography

How time flies! I've had the pleasure of photographing this little one since she was still in her mummy's tummy!  How I love watching her grow! My little clients are very dear to my heart and to be able to capture her during her milestone stages is such an honour!  You may remember Miss. Madelyn's newborn session here, as well as her 3 month expressive session here! Look at how much she has grown! Here she is at 6 months! Holy cuteness!

These next few I adore. First time feeling grass between her toes! 

Till next time.

Little cousins session: Oshawa Baby and Children Photography

We had some much fun during our cousin photography session on this morning. It was a secret for Mother's Day and a surprise for Grandma!  Three beautiful little children with personalities all of their own. Lots of giggles, extra helping hands and some noise and we did it.

Just check out these adorable little faces.

Was a busy session as you can see. Apparently they were not too keen on my singing ;)

Little heartbreaker!
