Kootenay Families

I headed home to the Kootenays last month for a holiday but I couldn't help picking up my camera to photograph two Nelson families that I adore.

Life partners Makena and Mr. E.
This little one's life is filled with adventures exploring the beautiful Kootenay mountains and lakeshores with his Mama.

The Phoenix family, who I adore. These loving and compassionate people welcomed me into their arms seven years ago and I feel very fortunate to call them family.

Now we are 1

In life there are many things to be grateful for. To be loved and supported is but just one.
This was a day of celebration in many ways. Happy 1st birthday to you sweet Alexa.

The sweetest East Van family

What a lovely family and such good sports to play outside on a cold Vangroovy day. We had a lot of fun though and I adore these images we created together for Ellie's Mommas.

Thank you imaging by marlis for assisting on this session and helping get some giggles out of Ellie.

Happy Birthday Ben || Vancouver Family Photographer

Ben was born January 22nd, 2014.
Just 7 days old when we met, his eyes focused deeply on me and they seemed to hold such wisdom.
