Supermoon

Well….I couldn’t resist the opportunity to get out and try a few shots of the once a year (and a particularly good year for it) super moon.  It was fun to just get out and experiment….mixed results but never a waste to learn by trying :-)

At the playground…..

Got a chance to hit a nearby playground for a couple of hours on Easter afternoon….it was windy….a bit chilly but still a ton of fun.  Here’s some grabs I was able to get of the two boys.  Took out the 150mm for these ones…..

Puddle Jumping….

Well….it has been a busy few weeks and haven’t had much chance to have the camera clicking….but today was our first day of what feels like spring and with the weather warming up we had lots of snow melting and lots of puddles forming.  The boys LOVE to head out in their rain boots with the freedom to get as wet as they want….so we had a free hour this afternoon to hit the streets.  Lots of fun….and it felt great to have the camera clicking.

Arabella’s first moments in this world….

WARNING! THIS BLOG POST CONTAINS SOME PICTURES OF THE FIRST MOMENTS OF BIRTH.

We welcomed our baby girl into the world today.  Her name is Arabella Lizabeth and she weighed in at 9lbs 1oz.  She is healthy, happy, and loving life.  We are loving her.  The following is the images of her first day with us.  Enjoy….

Tipping his brother!

Had some fun today.  I’ve been trying to find time to have some fun with a couple of strobes I’ve got.  So today I setup in the kitchen to attempt a composite shot and have some fun with the boys.  I hope to be playing around a bit more with this stuff.  The boys love it!  So I lit my kitchen up and captured each of them individually and then spent a bunch of time in Photoshop getting them together.  Lots of fun.  I think it came out okay but I hope to produce some more unique ones soon!

Enjoy!

 

Road Hockey

Had an amazing game of road hockey with all the little ones on New Years Day.  How fun and some AMAZING Winnipeg January weather to have the kids outside.  They had a blast taking on the adults.  The kids won 4-1.

Family Studio Shoot

Had a great time with this beautiful family of three getting some updated pictures for them.  ”S” was quite cooperative and had lots of smiles for us….though we did have to work for them a bit.  Enjoyed playing around with the light setup and learning a bit more about how to control 3 strobes for this shoot.  Lots of fun!

Word on the Street

We ran a production called Word on the Street at Riverwood Church (follow @riverwoodcc) for Christmas eve.  What a great modern day telling of the Mary and Joseph’s journey.  Great job cast and crew and what a fun day in the Elmwood community at Riverwood!

A white wonderland in Birds Hill

Had the chance to take advantage of a beautiful day and a brand new snowfall.  We headed out on a hike with the boys and their friends today.  It was so beautiful seeing every tree lined with snow and having the kids explore on the path….and a bit off the path too (that was my fault).  Enjoyed getting the camera outside and taking some photos…I haven’t been clicking as much lately….even if it meant a tree full of snow falling right on my camera….hope its okay.  Enjoy.

Fall family shoot

Had a great time with the Irwins doing a family photoshoot. We were lucky to have a warmish day still in late October to get some updated family shots. This one took quite a bit of animation effort to get the kids smiling (and a few smarties) but we managed to sneak a few happy shots. It was great being outside shooting again and to get another one in before the snow flies. Enjoy.
