stephanie + chris - muskoka maternity

about two months ago, i spent a beautiful day in muskoka at steph's family cottage. her baby bump was just perfect! chris was definitely not happy about taking the last photo, but he made a deal with steph- if he did it, then we could do a photo that he wanted to do. alas, our shoot ended with chris swan diving over steph's belly into the water. since then, baby evelyn has finally made her arrival (which was very overdue!) and i can't wait to meet her!

enjoy,

sam + owen - maternity

very early this morning, sam delivered a little baby boy! wesley william arrived around 6am on one of the nicest days we have had yet this spring. i delivered this shoot to sam and owen just a few days ago, so it seems i was just in time because newborn shots are just around the corner.
sam and owen's wedding a couple of years ago was actually the second wedding i ever shot, so i'm very happy to be able to document yet another exciting time in their lives. this family lives on a great property, so it seemed like the natural thing to do to shoot sam's maternity photos out there. the field was a bit too bright, so we headed back into a building that was actually once a pig farm! inside, the rusty background turned out great and slatted open wall gave us some nice light to work with. outside, owen suggested some shots in front of the mint green door which looked awesome in contrast to the red walls.

congrats to the new parents, and i can't wait to meet the little addition to your family!
enjoy!
