Including your pets in your family photo session is a must! This lifestyle photo shoot in Georgetown shows the dog is a part of the family too.
A Baby and His Dog
One of my all-time favourite photos is of Laura’s baby boy sitting beside their dog. The dog is posing perfectly and her blue-eyed boy is looking slightly above my head. It’s a peaceful photo that shows how gentle their dog is with the new addition to the family. Their baby boy looks focused and content. The lighting is perfection to me and the subjects are illuminated with ease.
Staying Inside
This entire family photo session was captured in the comfort of Laura’s home in Georgetown. It was an indoor photo shoot that allowed us the opportunity to capture their baby boy up close. He was warm, content and comfortable during the photo shoot and provided me with lots of interesting faces and smiles to capture.
Keeping Hockey Alive
Both Laura and her husband are avid hockey fans and he’s a referee. Passing on their love for hockey to their baby boy is important to Laura and her husband. We’re all born into our families not knowing what’s before us. Whether it’s hockey, soccer, fishing or video games, we all have interests that help define and shape us. Laura’s boy will learn a lot from his exposure to hockey — how to work as a team, how to follow rules of play, and so much more. This great Canadian past time will give the family a reason to come together on Saturday nights in front of the TV with snacks and a hope to win.
A Grandparents’ Love
Laura and her husband are lucky to have parents that spoil their baby boy. While I was there to photograph baby, his grandparents were there to help out as well. The love they have for their grandson is precious and full of hope. I love photographing grandparents with kids. The reason being, both generations are comfortable in front of the camera. Grandparents are happy to spend time with their grandkids and relish in their energy. The kids generally don’t know what’s going on and just go with the flow. Neither generation is self-conscious about how they look which means the smiles come naturally.
Another Baby!
As this post is published, I will have met with Laura and her family again to welcome a new addition to their family! Parents plus dog, plus toddler, plus new baby equals 5! Congratulations to Laura and her family on their latest addition and newest hockey fan.
My passion and biggest asset is taking the time to make every client comfortable and relaxed before I even pick up the camera. The result? Photos of you that actually look like you at your best! I can prove to you how much you can enjoy having your picture taken. Lifestyle photography is about the experience that happens to be served up along side of some great photos.
