laughter

baby twins...

this beautiful mamma had her beautiful babies! 

and i had the honor of photographing them last week. 

When I walked into the house I saw this on a huge cavas: 

In this house...
We do real, we do mistakes, we do I'm sorry, we do second chances, we do fun, we do hugs, we do forgiveness, we do really loud, we do family, we do love.

That sums it up.

and this one is hilarious to me.... its just so REAL life- babies cry and sometimes... its actually kind of funny! they are still perfect and adorable... but they cry- they are working out their little lives on the outside. i loved that these parents just went with it- enjoying it even... cause that is what life is- its the good, and the not so good... its the everything. its laughing and crying all at the same time. 

"in this house we do real"

australia friends

we met this amazing couple in Yasawa Fiji when we were photographing the YASAWA resort. 

and we got to reconnect with them in Australia- so very very fun to meet Jack.... oh my goodness they love love love this little boy.
and he is truly divine... these smiles are all the time with him- amazing. 

cannot wait until they come visit in whistler- i want to continue to photograph this little one for years to come! and maybe we will get dad in the next ones- he was golfing with Chad! lol

hip baby disco

i had the honor of participating in the first ever hip baby disco and it was so fun! caleb came with me and was my photo assistent! like.... for real- he took photos! 

it was a day of kids, dance, creating, laughing, and had a great earth day eco spin... ridiculously fun and we cannot wait for the next one! 

a special shout out to Collage Collage- I am still wearing my magazine bead necklace!

one mom said this "we spend almost all week telling our kids what to do, and where to go- how great to have this environment where all day they call the shots- i want to dance, lets do a craft- get photos taken and dance again-" ... that sums it up... it was full kid magic!

baby anna... whistler

my dear friend had her baby girl! 

and i was lucky enough to meet her for dinner before driving home to whistler. 

she was only a day old... 

(and yes... she is super mom... to have been shopping at whole foods a day after her baby being born... with her 2 other children... and then thinking we should all have dinner together!! LOL)

so in the midst of balancing dinner with 4 kids... and chatting with Liz about all the things women talk about after a baby is born... i grabbed my camera and captured just a few moments!! not a session... just ten minutes in the midst of a cafe/ in a bit of chaos capturing new life! 

xo

and her oldest... i love this image!!
