Albarda Family - Edmonton Family Photography

Hank Albarda has one of the nicest yards I have ever seen. It definitely puts my two flower pots to shame! But it was a great location for some family photos, which is where I met up with Hank, his daughter Beatrix and their kitty last week. Thanks for having me over!  And sorry I dismantled your sitting room and left before putting the furniture back! I felt guilty about that all weekend. Hope you like the photos!

Here are a couple of bonus photos featuring Kiss Kiss. The last one cracks me up! This was the only way the cat would look at me....holding her head straight to the camera.

Edmonton Humane Society - Edmonton Pet Photography

I am supposed to be doing some work right now, but World Cup soccer is on and I am finding it hard to concentrate. I don't even like the teams that are playing in this match! But this tournament only comes around every four years, so I am going to soak up as much as I can. (And in case anyone cares I am cheering for Italy)

So before I completely abandon my computer for the rest of the day, here are a few cats up for adoption at the Edmonton Humane Society. I was in this past weekend to take photos and it was the first time I had seen empty cat cages and rooms. During the previous weekend, the EHS held its first Certified Pre-Owned Cats Adoption Event. Click on the link to read more about it. But needless to say, it was a huge success. However, the shelter is starting to fill up again.

I particularly love this first kitty cause her eyes remind me of the colour of Italy's jersey ;)

Woods Family - Edmonton Family Photography

Here are a few more shots from last week's family session with the Woods family....on the one day of nice weather Edmonton had. Little George's grandparents were visiting from the East Coast and they wanted to get together for some photos. We met at this great playground in the Parkview neighbourhood for a few hours. George wasn't too impressed that we made him wait to get the group photos done before he could play on the slides, as shown in his face in the second photo. And I think Slick (the dog) was staring down a nearby wild rabbit. They are a good looking group!

I love this expression -- it's classic George! I think someone (either Grandpa or Dad) was threatening he'd get tickled unless he started smiling. Sort of worked ;)
