IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME IN THE CITY

One of the joys of being a stay-at-home Mom is afternoon photo shoots with other Mommy & Baby friends!! We got into the Christmas mood a bit early and decided to do a little shoot at the end of November after discovering Pinterest.com and all its wonderful ideas. As usual we couldn't do all the ideas because babies have a mind of their own so it was all about improvisation but I love them all and I hope you do too.



I cannot believe Christmas is in 9 days... eek feels like I haven't had a real chance to slow down and enjoy it. Check my Facebook page for more pictures from our shoot in a few days. Merry Christmas to one and all!!!

FEELING FESTIVE WITH THE "C" FAMILY

I had the pleasure of meeting the "C" family last week for some holiday themed pictures. As soon as I walked in the door I felt comfortable with this adorable family and was excited to take pictures in front of their gorgeous fireplace and take to the outdoors for a few shots before we all froze to death with the crazy Alberta winds!

Getting kids to smile and look at the camera isn't always an easy task but with the bribe of Timbits after our shoot Ellasyn was quite cooperative ;) And before anyone asks no I didn't Photoshop Greg and Abrielle's eyes, they are just naturally that gorgeous shade of blue!

MORE OF GREYDEN

Greyden was such a little doll I couldn't resist posting a few more pictures of him in black & white too! Look at his lower lip, its so pouty and gorgeous.I've said it before and I'll say it again I love a sleeping baby!!!

FALL FRIDAY

hahah how ironic that I finally get some nice pictures in the leaves edited and ready to post and today is the first real snowfall!! Oh well I'm determined to not accept that winter is right around the corner and will still pretend I can wear flip flops :)

Tina, of Stride Photography, and myself decided to head out last week to take some pictures of the kids in the leaves before they all blew away. Roman loved crawling/walking through all the crunchy leaves and it looks like Abby had a good time too in her new owl hat. If you want to see more of the shoot check out my Facebook page Captured by Karissa, and if you haven't already go like it!!!
