Gorgeous Natural Light Portrait Photography
|
Voici une autre séance coup de coeur photographié à domicile et dans un parc sur la rive sud. Quelle belle famille chaleureuse que j’ai eu la chance de photographier trois fois dans une période de moins de 12 mois. Vraiment du bon monde et j’ai hâte de suivre les péripéties de la petite Rose.
The website has a new look and brand new images from the past two years. It has looked like I haven’t been terribly busy but the truth of the matter is that I am a terrible blogger. I’ve revamped the website to look more like a website and less like a blog. If you want to see recent posts, of which there might not be many or there might be many depending on whether I am getting bloggy-with it, you have to click on Recent. I’ve tried to make the website bilingual, including the menu. Blog posts will be in either language depending on the language of the client posted. Also, the portfolio is still being updated. I am having technical difficulties with technology, was on the phone for an hour and a half and still the issue is not resolved. So this is a work in progress. One of the issues I face as a working mother and family photographer is my absence from my family during the week-ends. I take Fridays off to spend it with my son, but my absence is still felt in my family life. Since I photograph families, my week-ends are full and my family really misses me. I want to continue to shoot families and children. Starting in June, my price list will change but along with that will come incentive to do sessions during the week, at a discount. Looking forward to all of those spring sessions coming up!
One of my favourite sessions of the past year with one of my adored clients. It’s so lovely to watch the children grow into beautiful little kids.
I finish off with dandelions blowing in the wind, my favourite! What a perfect session. We took Lucas to his second Cabane a Sucre experience this weekend. We decided to go for a less rustic experience… I was trying to appeal to the train lover in Lucas. There is a little train at Chalet des Erables just North of Laval. They also had rides galore. The entrance fee only includes the meal, all rides and activities require little coupons that can be purchased at the general store for $2 a pop. It was very commercial but had great family appeal, Lucas couldn’t stop taking about the train and the cowboy – we actually had to put our hands up as the cowboy held up the train. Luckily the sherif burst out of the saloon to save the day. The toffee is also included in the entrance fee and was delicious! The trick is not to take too much on your stick at a time, otherwise you get these strings of toffee everywhere! My little guy loved it. “More! More! More!” He wasn’t terribly happy at the actual meal time and decided he wasn’t eating anything. But my fussy eater did change his mind and had a few bites eventually. I didn’t take photos of the food… to be honest it didn’t inspire me that much. If you are looking for a day of family fun, this is your place. If you are looking for an exquisite rustic culinary experience, perhaps this would not be the place. Surprisingly, aside from the train, Lucas’ favourite thing was the free-standing “FREE” caboose. No coupons necessary! I don’t regret taking him to this very commercial spot. He keeps asking me every night to tell him the story about the cowboy and the train. That in itself is so precious.
One resolution is the post more to my blog. I’m the worst blogger around!! being a photographer means doing so much more than taking photos… one of them is self-promotion and learning how to share what you are doing with the World which includes blogging! One of my dear friends is having a baby any day now and I took some photos of her at the Jardins Botanique. Here is just a sneak peek of the session I am working on today. |
