Valentine Cutie ~

I love red, I love Valentine's Day and I love . . .well, love. The way it overtakes you, even if you try to deny it, how it sneaks up on you and pulls you in. It's an amazing force ~ love. This little cutie will be breaking hearts for years to come. 



Canty Dance Centre 8th Annual Winter Showcase

Once again I had the privilege to attend a CDC event, this event was Winter Showcase. The half year version of Recital. I would like to say that covering Showcase had the same affect on me as last years June recital did. The overwhelming amount of spirit, commitment, talent and desire was present. 
Not only are these events full of creativity, fun and talent, they are filled with the warmth of a Sunday family dinner at your gram's house. Each and every member of CDC elude love and commitment ! Commitment from the dancers, teachers, parents, families, friends and of course Ms. Erin. 
Being the mom of 3 young children, a loving wife and the owner of CDC, she amazes me at all that she accomplishes ! She is always right there to help with any problem that arises and she does it with a smile. It is clear to me that CDC holds many of Ms Erin's values and it shows each time the CDC dancers get on stage. Full of smiles and enthusiasm ! 
Even though mother nature decided to give us some snow for our Winter Showcase, kind of fitting? The show went off with out a hitch and was an afternoon filled with many creative, high energy, dance routines.
Enjoy !

Valentine Sweetie

I hold this little man dear to my heart. He is a bundle of laughs and joy. No one would know this little man was fighting a stomach bug this day. It's hard to believe he is already 5 months old - yet at the same time it feels as if he has been here forever. It makes me so happy to photograph each step of this little man's journey.
Auntie loves you peanut.

7 kids

I love when my special clients book a session, and the images will be used as a gift. It's even nicer to have them contact me and ask me to put them on my blog !  This was a very special Christmas gift session. Grama had bought all of the kids their Christmas pj's (as she does each year) but this year she was going to get a picture of them all together ! This group ranged  from 7wks to 5 and a half years old. I knew this would be a challenge, but I also knew if I could just let them be "kids" and be themselves, everything else would fall into place. There were many different personalities that morning, but one common denominator - they adored each other !
It was so refreshing to have all these little ones, along with their moms all gathered in a room together, chatting and laughing and just having fun ! It was a great way to spend a Saturday morning.
