Min + Brooke Family Portraits - Tree Farm
I’ve lost track how many times I have photographed Min and her family, and I’m so grateful for that. There is nothing more rewarding than capturing a family as they grow up.
Angela + Family Portraits - Tree Farm
Some highlights of my mini session with Angela and her family on Thanksgiving Day.
Hillary + Family Portraits - Tree Farm
Here are some highlights from my extremely fun mini session with Hillary and her extended family.
Melanie + Family Portraits - Tree Farm
It was a very fun session yesterday over at the Tree Farm with Melanie and her family. They brought their new puppy with them, which was awesome, and as you’d expect, he kind of stole the show. At the end of the session, I was able to get a few photos of him walking and smelling everything in site.
Lindsay + Family Portraits - Tree Farm
I’m so excited to have a weekend full of mini sessions at the Tree Farm. It was such a great time last year, I decided to do it again. With the threat of rain in the forecast, Lindsay and her family pushed their session up to today. It worked out perfectly, because the weather was perfect.
Michael + Family Mini Session - Centennial Park
The other portion of my mini session this past weekend was with Michael, Evy and Arthur. I was so impressed how easy going both Evy and Arthur were during the entire session. From the very first photo, they were smiling and laughing. It made for a very sincere and authentic session.
Ange + Family Portraits - Tree Farm
I still can’t believe how nice out it was this past weekend. It honestly felt like spring. Even though it was extremely last minute, I managed to book a few mini sessions with families. It’s always nice meeting new families that I haven’t photographed before, and that was exactly the case with Ange and her family.
Matt + Family Portraits - Squaw Bay
My latest mini session was with Matt and his family at Squaw Bay . It’s located on Fort William First Nation, and really is a hidden gem. There is definitely a lot of room for improvement for the overall area, but the backdrop is simply one of the best in the city. Luckily, I had an equally beautiful family to capture.
Brittney + Family Portraits - Trow Bridge
It’s always fun to photograph family. My niece Brittney wanted some new photos of her three kids, so I of course found some time to do so. Brittney hadn’t been to Trow Bridge since high school so it was the perfect spot. Plus, it allowed the kids to just run around and have fun. Let’s just say the majority of the photos were candids. All in all, it was a super fun session. Any chance I get to hangout with family is more than welcome.
Kanisha + Family Portraits - Centennial Park
My first session at Centennial Park was the perfect way to start the day. I had so much fun photographing Kanisha and her family. Eva was so cute, and she had so much personality. We ended up using the side trail at the park, which was a nice change of scenery. As you can see, Fall is definitely here. Hopefully it stays around a while, because it’s the perfect backdrop for these portrait sessions.
Meladina + Family Portraits - Centennial Park
It was another day of mini sessions. This time I had a couple at Centennial Park which is now completely full of vibrant colours. Meladina and her family were a pleasure to photograph, and the homemade skirts they had were absolutely beautiful. It was a quick session, but as always, we came away with a lot of great photos.
Shawn + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
Anytime families bring their dogs along on a session, I get excited. As it turns out, both of Shawn’s dogs were excited too! A little too much so sometimes, but it was a super fun session regardless. I was able to get a lot of great captures of not only the dogs, but of course her family as well.
Phalen + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
Most of my recent mini sessions have been anywhere from 4 to 8 people, but it was just Phalen and her two children this time around. It’s amazing how each time I do a session at the Tree Farm, I find new spots each and every time.
Courtney + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
My first round of mini sessions at the Tree Farm were such a hit, that I opened up another date, that also filled up fast. Courtney and her family were one of those families to book a session. Anytime you get to photograph four generations of a family, you know it will be a good day. All four ladies looked amazing, and we all had a great time walking around capturing photos that will be passed down to future generations.
Rebecca + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
My last session of the day was with Rebecca and her family. Just like with the rest of the families, they were so great in front of the camera. The sun was already a bit lower in the sky, so the lighting was getting really flattering for a lot of the photos. The Tree Farm is such a nice place to walk around and take photos. You can go from towering trees as a backdrop to a secluded trail. The possibilities are endless. I may just have to book some more sessions here before Fall is over!
Cassandra + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
One of my last sessions of the day was with Cassandra and her family. I actually went to high school with her and her brother Jayden, so it was great to spend some time with her family. They were very laid back which made for such natural looking photos. Going in to mini sessions there is always a part of me that worries about getting enough photos, but I have yet to have a problem with it. It’s easy to do when you have a family like Cassandra’s to work with!
Jill + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
The best thing about portrait sessions, is meeting new families. Case in point this past weekend. I met a few different families during my mini session day. Jill and her family were one of those. They were such a pleasure to photograph. We actually covered a lot of ground in just 30 minutes, but in no way did it feel rushed.
Helen + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
It was a busy Sunday full of mini sessions at the Tree Farm in Thunder Bay. My first session of the day was with a very talented local artist Helen and her family. I’ve done product photos her before, but this was my first time photographing her with her family. I was super excited to do so.
Jaclyn + Family Mini Session - Centennial Park
It’s been a super busy month so far with mini sessions on the weekends here and there. I had another super fun one with Jaclyn and her family. There was a threat of rain for the day, but it ended up being absolutely perfect weather, cloudy and a bit misty.
Danielle + Family Mini Session - Centennial Park
My first of many mini portrait sessions to come over the next month or so took place earlier today with Danielle and her amazing family at Centennial Park. It had been a while since she last had portraits taken of her family and their parents were in town, so it was perfect timing.
