Going on a Lion Hunt

I had the greatest time with these kids! We drove up to the path leading to the field and I asked them if they'd ever heard of the song, 'Going on a Lion Hunt'. They each nodded exuberantly. "Well," I said, "this is a little different, because if you see a lion, I want you to run back to the car screaming like crazy!" What a way to break the ice :) and it worked very well. Although the youngest was still bound and determined by the end of the shoot that he was still going to see a lion, bummer, lol

Great lighting, great scenery, great kids, great time! Thanks Jodi!

Too Cute!

Just finished the editing on this set! I love the feeling of accomplishment, 30 photos done. This was a session I did for my friend, Kim. She has adorable kids that are a bit shy, which is just too cute! It was difficult to get smiles, even I smile when offered chocolate, lol. Anyway, it is so rewarding to have been able to capture the few split seconds where Abby smiled! Too cute! Here are my favorites from Kim's session:

The Last 14 Days!

Phew! So glad to be home! Just came back from a trip with my hubby. We traveled across the country and back again, from Winnipeg Manitoba, to Quebec City / Montreal, to New York New York / Long Island, then through Banff to Vancouver and Washington, a stop in Calgary, detour to Lethbridge, and back home... FINALLY! 11,000km in two weeks... boy oh boy! Definitely glad to be home for a while and work on all these pictures!! ;) ;)
