Project 366 | November

Oh November.  We have a bit of a love/hate relationship.  Actually, it used to be just hate until Levi was born last November.  But this year we saw our little man turn one.  It’s hard to believe!  Peter and I are enjoying discovering more about his little personality and it is pretty wild how quickly he is learning new things.  We had a couple of dicey weeks with his molars coming in and I felt like I was going to lose my mind once or twice, but I am lucky to have the best mother-in-law who took Levi off my hands for a few afternoons so I could regroup (also my mom will want me to mention that she was off saving lives in Ghana otherwise she would have helped me too)! I think we have one more 1-year molar to go and then I’m keeping my fingers crossed that we’ll be done with teething for a while!  Anyhow, I am marching along with the project and I think making it through this month was a victory.  Hoping I can blaze through Christmas and then January and finish strong!

Welcome Baby Fay! | Uxbridge Newborn Photographer

In November Courtney and Ren welcomed their beautiful rainbow baby into the world! I had the pleasure of capturing their maternity photos and was counting down the days until I got to meet their newest family member!  I trekked out to their cozy country home and got to capture some special memories of their first days together.  Of course, when little Fay found out that I was coming she was far too excited to sleep! Luckily Courtney already knows this girl like the back of her hand, worked her mommy-magic and after some cuddles and rocking we had the sweetest sleeping baby on our hands.  I’ll let her modelling skills speak for themselves.  Courtney and Ren, I wish you many blessings as you embark on this journey of parenthood!

The J Family | Stouffville Family Photographer

I have known the J family for many years (15 years to be exact!), and was super excited when they asked me to do some extended family photos for them while their entire family was in town.  We met at a beautiful park in Stouffville, and even though it was pouring rain on our way to the session the skies cleared just in time for us to start shooting! As you can see from the photos below there's a lot of love in this family and they were a joy to capture!

Courtney & Ren | Uxbridge Maternity Photographer

Last week I had the pleasure of shooting some maternity photos for my grade-school friend Courtney and her husband Ren! I can't even remember when Courtney and I last connected, so when she got in touch to see if I could capture her maternity and newborn photos I was thrilled. They brought me to a gorgeous area in the Uxbridge trails (its the trail capital of Canada!).  I can't believe I lived in Uxbridge for half my life and have never been to this spot.  It was a beautiful sunset session and we had so much fun.  They brought their dog Jack and he was basically an angel.  I'm sad I didn't find an opportunity to sneak him into my car and bring him home with me! All jokes of puppy-napping aside, I can't wait to meet their sweet baby soon and find out if it's a boy or girl!
