Turning the Big 1 in Style! | Agassiz & Chilliwack Baby Photographer

One of the great bonuses of my job is that I have the best clients. I really do! Even better is when these folks come back to me again and again, and refer their friends to me too - as an artist who really cares about giving my clients a great experience, it is the greatest compliment I can receive. So, I was absolutely thrilled to welcome back this little peanut into the studio for her big milestone, celebrating the grand old age of 1! I have watched this little princess grow from just a tummy-bump to an adorable tiny peanut, and then from a cute baby into a dainty little lady.

The whole family are fantastic to work with - both parents are wonderfully patient and great to "direct", and Mom is a natural when it comes to styling and accessorizing. It all helps my job go so much smoother! (Especially with that unpredictable 1-yr-old stage!) Of course, we HAD to add some cake smash fun to the end of the session... although, I will admit that most of the mess was actually made by the big people!

Double Trouble! | Chilliwack Baby Photographer

A year ago, I had the pleasure of meeting these 2 little men (and their awesome big bro) a few weeks earlier than planned. Their poor Mom was getting ready and excited for her maternity session, when the twins had other ideas - they decided that they would hog the limelight, and make a very early entrance instead. So, our first session actually ended up being a lifestyle one in the NICU... followed a few weeks later by their official newborn session, in the studio.

Well, after a dramatic start, I was so excited to see this wonderful family again, and to see how much these little men had grown. I was not disappointed! They have such different characters, and are both still so cute. I can't imagine how crazy life is with 3 little active boys like these... but Mom & Dad are rockstars, and got it all covered way better than I could!

To be different... we also had some cake-smashing fun at the end of the "formal" session... and I had so much fun going through the shots afterwards - I could've written funny captions for every other shot!!
