East Vancouver Family Portraits | Trout Lake Park

Last time I photographed these two the youngest was tiny and new.
We met up at Trout Lake in East Vancouver to take advantage of the blooming buttercup flowers.
Their parents decided they loved the scuffed knee on their eldest so we didn’t do any Photoshop magic there and kept it real.
During their fun session the eldest gave me a nickname which I think is going to stick.
Henceforth, I will be known as Bee-Belle. At least to these two.

Port Moody Family Portraits | Rocky Point Park

This family had just moved into their new home, and as a thoughtful gesture, their realtor gifted them a family session with me.
We decided to visit their new favourite park for the session. When meeting a new family, I like to involve the children in the creative process to make them feel included. The kids excitedly pointed out a bridge they wanted me to see, and while exploring, we stumbled upon a picturesque country-style fence that became the perfect backdrop for their portraits.
