Thankfulness for Families
We can be thankful to God for our families this Thanksgiving. I had the privilege of taking photos of this lovely family a couple of months ago. We did a photo shoot together a couple of years ago – they are a very easy family to work with, and it’s interesting to see the changes […]
Children … gift from God
Often when we take photos of our children, we think we need to be have them pose and say “cheese”. This does not always work out well, as the pictures don’t always look natural. It’s best to take photos of them doing things when they aren’t aware of the camera. If you can set them […]
Having Fun when Taking Photos
What is most important when we take photos of our families? Do we need to make sure that everything is perfect, and everyone is posed just so? Or do we need to make sure that it is fun for everyone involved. I have memories of being told that we had to stand just so … […]
Taking Pictures of Tobogganing

Family in the Sun
Family in the sun … Taking time for family and loved ones is what God wants us to do. When we do this, He shows us the beauty in our family and around us. With Thanksgiving coming, it is good to be reminded of all that we can be thankful for. This picture was a bit of an […]
Afternoon at the Lake
Afternoon times at the lake. One of those memories we like to have during the long winter months. This girl was fascinated with the ducks, and spent quite a bit of time watching them. Shooting in the direction of the sun made her look silhouetted for the picture. Building memories for children is an important […]
Little boys
Little boys … shy … not sure about having his picture taken? He just didn’t want it to take too long to have his picture taken and wondered when he could get down. Little boys are given to us from God. God makes each of us unique … looks … personality … attention spans …and He […]
