Gorgeous baby girl!

First of all, Merry Christmas to everyone, and I hope you are all having great holidays so far. I took these a few weeks ago, and they are a Christmas surprise for Dad. Since mom posted them on Facebook, I'm going to go ahead and assume that dad got his gift a little early... ;)

Anyway, what a sweet baby! I always say that, but I always mean it! Not a peep of a cry the whole time I was there, and no one got peed on. An all around good time!

Here are a few of my favorites from her session, her eyes are just so pretty.



The next two are my top two favorites. What a sweetie!


Just relaxing...



Ho, Ho, Ho!



Merry Christmas everyone!

For a brief second, I thought it was me...

It seems like there have been a lot of photos of this family on my blog... well, I guess there have been! This is the couple who had the surprise wedding - read more about it in this post - Surprise Wedding

Because their actual wedding was a surprise, they weren't able to invite all of the friends and family, so Skip and I went to Oyen in November to take the family photos that we didn't take at the actual wedding, as well as some photos at the reception.

Here are just a few of my favs. from that day.


Here is Shaune wearing his grandfathers cuff links - details like this are so special.


Skip got this one and I LOVE IT! I was shooting straight on - and that one is good too - but I really love the different angle on this one.


You may have noticed in the family photo above, and in ALL of the other photos, everyone seems, well, more happy than usual to be having a lot of family photos taken. I thought that maybe I got funnier, or maybe I had something in my teeth, no...

This was what was going on behind me for most of the photos, and I can only imagine what else. I may have to hire him for all of my photos!



I thought for sure she would sneak a taste, but grandma caught her first.



This was the moment when Shaune's sister said that she had found some old audio footage of Shaune singing as a child, he looks worried, and he was worried for a good reason, it was hilarious!


A special dad daughter dance...


The band Cold Shot was there to entertain for the rest of the night - they were really good!
Amanda's uncle plays base - he's the one with the cool beard.

Here is the link to their myspace page if you are interested in booking them for your event.

A really funny little guy...

I had a fantastic time at Police Point Park a few weeks ago with this family... Daniel is a few months older than Quin, but so much the same in so many ways. Probably most two year old's are busy and full of energy, and he is no exception... We did some singing, some running, some exploring, some walking backwards, oh, and mom and dad brought a flashlight so that we could look inside some gnarly old trees for bugs. This was all in about an hour.

Oh, and I should mention also that these gorgeous blue eyes have made an appearance on my blog once before - actually as the very first post! Here is the link - The Beginning...

I didn't post very many the first time around so there are a few more this time, enjoy!


This was one of the VERY few times we got him to sit... ;)



Looking for bugs...




Running and enjoying the tall grass...





This is DEFINITELY one of my favorites!



Love his eyes in this one...




Also a favorite...



I am also going to take a second to thank Sonja for entering my summer contest - this was the free session that she won. Here is the link to her summer photo that won the contest...
