I have been photographing this beautiful mama and daughter since Amélie was just two weeks old, and each time it's so much fun getting to see how much she's grown! This St. Albert motherhood session was so special - it was documented in celebration of Amélie's first birthday, which truly is, in large part, a celebration of Carike's first year of motherhood.
Watching the beautiful bond these two share is quite something. I love watching a mother and child interact so naturally with one another, and my big inspiration for this session was to just allow these two to be, exactly as they are. This meant lots of sweet snuggles and quiet whispers as mama spoke to Amélie in the most soothing, nurturing way. It also meant lots of kisses - my favourite to observe, as Amélie loves to grab her mama's face and go all in! It was truly magical watching mama and baby love on one another, and it was a pleasure getting to capture this special time for them.

You’ve just had a baby, you’re beyond exhausted, and your house feels like a tornado went off with breast pads and burp cloths and diapers scattered throughout every room. Getting yourself photo-worthy, along with your partner, baby, and any other […]
As a new mom, I know just how much time and care you’ve put into preparing your new baby’s nursery.

My dearest Sophie Rose,
Right now, you are asleep on in my arms. Your favourite place to be. You’re having a hard time sleeping comfortably, as your tummy works hard to digest the milk, and seem happiest when you’re tucked into mommy’s chest. So here we sit. Nearly 5:30 in the morning […]
There’s something extra special about watching a family welcome their newest family member after spending some time getting to know the family. Watching baby Clara’s adoring parents and sweet big sister love on her was so special, and made me feel even more excited to watch my own little one become a big sister this […]
I first met Sandra at a Tuesday’s Together meeting for local Edmonton entrepreneurs, and I immediately knew I loved this girl. From her eye for gorgeous home decor, to her fun nature (not pictured, her popping some champagne at the end of her session to celebrate her upcoming birthday, and proceeding to spill it down […]
This Cold Lake family session was intended to take place only a few weeks after baby Cohen’s birth, but with Covid-19 hitting just as we were scheduled for our in-home session, we decided to postpone until it was safe to shoot outdoors and from a distance. This mama is a close friend of mine, and […]
