I love it when clients come to me with crazy adorable themes for their kiddos cake smash sessions. Ellie had this cute idea to do a Twinkle Twinkle Little Star Calgary Cake Smash session for her daughter Kaia and I absolutely loved it!

All good things in my books! Happy Birthday Kaia!! Look at that cute grin!!!Kaia was very proud to be one and showing it off to everyone!I just loved all the adorable faces she made… Keep Reading

Springbank Extended Family Photography | The Swystun Family | Calgary Family Photographer
Just before the holidays I got to meet the Swystun family for their Springbank extended family Photography session. This was such a fun session! They wanted to do their session at their home where they had amazing mountain views and they could all snuggle around their backyard fire pit. They were also hoping for a little bit more snow then what we had but with the warmer temperatures that we had all the snow that we had had disappeared by their session. I also loved the golden sunset light that we got during their shoot. Give me a stunning Alberta sunset any day! Thanks for including me in some of… Keep Reading
