February 14, 2009

Barton Family Shoes

Lining up the Family’s shoes in preparation of their new arrival.  Baby shoes are from Superstore’s Joe line!

crib safariWild safari in the crib.  Roar!  I remember my toys never being as soft as they are these days!  

Chillin' on the CouchResting up before heading out to Cresent Heights park.   Jo stayed in this position for a bit, being almost close to her due date i realized it’s better not to maneuver her too much!

Jo & Paul Couch

Jo and Elephant

They don’t know if baby is a boy or girl, but pink/purple elephant doesn’t gender discriminate!

Paul & Baby Bump

Calling daddy to Baby.  Over.

Jo & Paul KissWe asked Paul and Jo to kiss, after to which Paul said Jo’s lipgloss tasted yucky!   I’m sure it was worth the cute shot!

Joanne BumpBaby Bump was extremely well behaved.

Jo & Paul Calgary DowntownAfternoon lighting is always tricky to shoot in with the harsh light and shadows, but this one turned out fabulous – they look awesome!  Loved the highlights in their hair – and the Calgary skyline behind spiced it up nicely.  

Small Hands Gift BagThanks for hosting us most of last Saturday – it was really a great time of chatting and laughing.  Can’t wait to meet you tiny hands, buttoned nose Baby.  =)

Maternity Session

February 13, 2009

I’m hoping that by the time i have these pictures up Jo and Paul’s baby won’t be walking yet!  I apologize, i’m so slow!  I blame the cold Calgary weather putting me in hibernation mode.  Slowly but surely i’ll be pumping out the maternity photos, but for now here are a few more baby bumpish shots as a preview.   

Purple ElephantPurple elephant.  The favorite plush toy thus far!  There’s a whole safari in the nursery. 

Bump & ShoesPresenting mommy to be.  She looks fabulous – and baby was ever so active when i put my hand on her belly.  Don’t worry – i asked for permission!  You can practically see the baby shoes jump!  More to come tomorrow.  =)

Baby Bump Maternity Sesssion

February 11, 2009

On a sunny Saturday morning, we took to beautiful Crescent Heights in Calgary for a maternity session of Jo and Paul before she’s due Valentine’s Day.   Clara and I were so excited to photograph Jo in her glowing pregnant glory!    While Jo was getting pampered and prettied up we spent the morning chatting it up with mom and dad to be and oooing and  awwwwwing over their cute accumulation of new-born clothes, toys and shoes.  More to come, here’s a cute sneak preview!

Hoonies Family Session

January 7, 2009

We started off the new year with missy here sticking her tongue at us.  

Pokey TongueThe girls are cute and easily swayed by chocolates!

baby ANewest addition to the family.  Her eyes are the size of pizzas.

Close Up of Baby AHer night cap was funny, it kept slipping over her eyes!

Daddy Gives Baby A KissesI love this shot because it looks like Baby A is smiling!

Mommy & Baby ABaby kept her eyes open for a very long time – i was impressed.

Hoonie Sister and HubbyHoonie sister II here was the one who successfully corralled her family together for the shoot, after a busy day out in Canmore!

Hoonie Family ShotAnd here’s the shot!  Not a bad looking bunch at all!  All the babies had their gaze in our general direction which Clara and I would deem a success!  It literally has been years since Clara and I chatted with the sisters together – it was a good time and made me miss the old times.  Thanks girls for asking us to do this.  It was an awesome way to spend the new year!
