Richardson Family -- Edmonton Family Photography

For the last several weeks anytime I have driven out on the rural roads near my house, I have passed field after field of canola, -- and I thought it would be a great place for some photos.  So when the Richardson's asked me to take some family photos for their daughter's upcoming second birthday, I proposed doing some of them in the colourful fields before all the blooms are gone. One thing I didn't think about was potential pollen allergies. Whoops! Mr. R and myself are apparently allergic to canola! It was all good, though.

Edmonton Humane Society Animals - Edmonton Pet Photography

Eeek! I was overwhelmed by the cuteness at the Edmonton Humane Society yesterday....especially with the kitten in the first picture. This little guy was in the cat condo directly above the cat I was photographing, but he was quite scared of me or my camera. He kept hiding in a little cubbyhole, peeking his head out every few seconds, checking to see if I was still there. So I put my camera down and gave him a quick cuddle and we were buds after that. The EHS is once again filled to the brim with adorable cats that are looking for their forever homes, including these five kitties!

Baby Zoe - Edmonton Newborn Photography

This little angel is just over a week old and she already has daddy wrapped around her finger. When I arrived at baby Zoe's house, she was fast asleep curled up in daddy's arms.  I said a silent "awww" in my head. It reminded me of my husband and our daughter and their immediate bond during her first week of life. He is still her favorite person in the world!

Zoe was such a good little model for me! I was warned that she doesn't like to be on her stomach, but she didn't give me any trouble. A super soft blanket does wonders. Thanks to Zoe's parents for letting me come capture some first week memories!
