Last week I wrote a post about why 6 month baby pictures matter. But maybe you sitting there thinking, “But, Kelly, my baby barely sits, what the heck are we going to do during a session?”. Well, so glad you asked! I’m going to capture the love, and the interactions, and the teeny tiny milestones. We […]

{Baby Photographer Edmonton} Think about 6 months. 182 days. 262,800 minutes. Does it feel like forever? Or just a blink in time? In 6 months leaves fall from tree branches, and then snow melts away bringing fresh life. 12 episodes of Scandal air. 28,800 babies are born in Alberta. Seeds are planted leading to bountiful vegetable harvests. In 6 months […]

Last year I cooked up a hair-brained idea to take a picture every day for a whole month during the toughest hour of my day, which became the Our 5 O’Clock Project. At the time, when my kids were 3 years and 7 months old, 5:00 pm was the hour I did not look to […]

This was one of the last frames I shot at a recent newborn photo session. It was a spur of the moment image – I’d asked Mom if she’d be ok taking baby’s shirt off so I could get a few detail shots of her tiny belly button. It was a total in-between moment which became […]

Working from home can be lonely. Like talk to your computer and hope it talks back lonely. I routinely bounce ideas off my husband but sometimes I need to hash ideas out with someone who is in the business. Enter, monthly meetings with my friend Katie. They are half meeting, half escape from the house. The ‘meetings’ take […]

We were standing there. It was a tiny little alcove in their attic and the light was streaming through the window in the most amazingly beautiful way. Giggles had erupted just moments before when the shower had been secretly turned on by mischievous little hands. Water rained down, spraying out of the tub and onto the floor.

It’s been said a million times, but it still stands true – the best camera is the one you have with you. For me (and probably you too), that’s your phone. If you have a recent smart phone, then you have a decent camera. Is it super high quality with a bazillion megapixels that can […]
