CONTEST WINNER

Last month Visual Hues Photography ran an exciting contest for a wall display.  I recently went over for the photo shoot at the winner’s home and here are some of the images from our very fun morning together.  On-location shoots are so much fun as we can explore all the possibilities a home has to offer.  We were able to try on lots of outfits, visit different rooms and incorporate the furniture and decor from Miss ”G” ’s home.   

I’ll be sure to post the wall display mom and dad choose!  For now you get to see some of images … I had lots of fun with both colour and black & white.7721bw-17798bw-17738-17924-17708c-17697-1

ANYONE HAVE A PONYTAIL HOLDER?

Last year I had the pleasure of meeting this little girl’s mom and dad and taking photos of their wedding.   This year, it’s their 3 week old daughter in the spotlight and how precious is she?  I’ll let the images do the talking on this one.  Pure sweetness.

MY SOFT SPOT FOR REDHEADS

When this 5 week old’s mom contacted me to take photos of their family again with their newest addition, I was delighted!  And over the moon when she mentioned she had red hair.  I have such a soft spot for redheads.  One day, I am going to put together a collection of images with redheads and publish a book.  Someday…  someday.  But back to today and talking about this very fun shoot!  Yes, I adored her red hair and although I love the black & white images as well, I had to post the colour ones of her.  And even though little “R” had red hair it didn’t take any attention away from her MOST adorable big brother!  I also love this hat .. which I found at Child at Heart, a most wonderful children’s boutique located in Britannia Plaza and Kensington.  www.childatheart.ca 6813-copy6729bw-copy6797-copy

FRECKLES!

I just love freckles (although I never said that when I was young and had them myself! – so adorable on this sweet little girl.   She was just hanging out by the swing set at our neighbourhood Easter Egg Hunt in the park today and the colours took me right away with her stunning eyes against the orange and blue.  The wisps of the hair just begged for a black and white image.6503-blog6502bwblog

LOVIN’ THE CAMERA

We were wondering if the predicted thunderstorms would arrive just in time for our shoot, but they never did appear!   Here is a gorgeous girl from our neighbourhood and I was just delighted to take photos of her.  She loved the camera!  Hope you love them, Mom and Dad!
