Jessica + Adam truly made planning a wedding day during covid look like a walk in the park. They were on the ball the entire time and, with the help of the vendors, put together a gorgeous day filled with endless love and laughter! And we were just truly honoured to be a part of it all.
So when Steph + Dave first reached out to me about their wedding photography I just knew we had to book them. Not only were they just two incredibly sweet people, but I mean their names are Steph + Dave!! It was just kismet right?!
The end of March is not a very pretty time of the year when it comes to the great outdoors. The ground is pretty muddy, the skies are often dull and gray, and the trees are basically empty. And for a lot of sessions I typically give people the option of waiting until the weather is a little nicer, but when it comes to time sensitive things, like maternity sessions, there really isn’t any waiting because once that little one decides to make their entrance a maternity session isn’t really an option anymore, haha!
But luckily Bridget + Matt were completely on board for their late March session and we were able to mix in some outdoor and in-home photos to give some more range to their photos.
I think it is only right for me to start of this blog post by letting you know that this session was really special for me. Not only was it a family session for one of our previous wedding couples (and an amazing couple with a very memorable wedding day to say the least), but it was also special because of Big Sister Olivia. You see, Baby Dominic’s big sister was one of my first newborns in the studio and she is officially the first studio #SBNewborn to return as a big sibling!!
You really never know what you’re going to be greeted with when it comes to big siblings. Sometimes they are super keen on being a part of the session and other times they want nothing to do with it. Every once in a while you find yourself somewhere in between (for example, a grumpy toddler who will be in the photos but not be happy about it, haha!), but more often than not, it’s one extreme or another. I am just oh so happy (and lucky) that when it came to Baby Mackenzie’s session, Big Sister Aubrey was the former and was absolutely thrilled that is was photo day!
