My last few sessions

Sometimes the studio just doesn't work. We only got one shot of this little guy inside, and then he just wanted to get going. So instead of fight him, we let him lead the way. He loves trains, so we thought the best place to take him would be the tracks. He was so much happier there, and we were able to get great smiles and a more natural feel to the whole session. Mom's often worry that their kids aren't going to do well with pictures. Finding them something fun to do, and not trying to make them sit in one position and smile, is most often when the best images emerge. And it's a lot more enjoyable for everyone when they're allowed to just be kids, not models.














For this grad student, we headed out just before sunset to do her images. I'm so happy with how they turned out. It's such a pretty time of day, but you have to work fast, cause that sun dissapears quickly once it starts going down!




























This wedding was held on the island on Wascana Lake. I never even knew it existed, but it was really pretty. All of the guests took a ferry over, then after the ceremony, we took a little boat ride around the island. That's where I shot this first picture, with the couple and the ledge behind them. Very neat idea!





After we got back on land, the guest were waiting for the newly married couple. They lined the sidewalk and threw rose petals as the couple made their entrance.
