Edmonton Newborn Photographer- News

Shellie — Sun, 25 Jul 2010 22:11:53 +0000

Vacation:

I will be away for most of the month of August and will only have occasional access to my emails. If you are intested in booking a session- please note that I am full for 2010 for family sessions, but will try my hardest to take your newborns in October and November.

Workshop Update:

I am still looking for maternity models for my professional photographer’s workshop Sept. 10 from 1:30 -3. So please email me at secretan@shaw.ca if you are interested in having some GORGEOUS free images of your pregnant belly. :0)

I am full for newborns and children models- but email me at secretan@shaw.ca if you would like to be considered as a backup incase some one isn’t born on time etc.

Here are some sneak peeks of a wonderful session. I love twins! I can’t imagine having them- it must be two times the joy, and two times the work, but they are so fun to photograph. When I first met these two little people I was actually afraid of the little miss- and I haven’t been afraid of a baby since I had my first! She was so small though- her forearm is about as big around as my pointer finger- scary- big bro came in at a whopping 6 pounds- and he seemed huge compared to her- crazy!

What sweet little people though- they just slept, and slept, and only woke up to eat once in awhile. It was a wonderful morning, and I love their images- enjoy!

Edmonton Children’s Photographer | Summer

Shellie — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 21:27:35 +0000

I love summer! It is so nice to be outside- to see leaves and flowers! It is one of my very favorite times of year to photograph also, so I am always excited when summer rolls around. I have photographed these two beautiful little girls a few times, and it is always so nice to work with their family. :0) They are so relaxed and fun to be with. The older little girl can just pull out those fake laughs for me now- LOVE IT! Thanks for a great session guys.

Edmonton Newborn Photographer | Snips and Snails

Shellie — Sun, 04 Jul 2010 23:25:16 +0000

and puppy dogs tails- that’s what boys are made of! This little cutie was a dream during his session-his parents warned me that he wasn’t very flexible, but he put his feet in his face like a champion! :0) These are actually some of my favorite flexible baby pictures- he just looks so good all bent over and cuddled up. He was a sweetie- he had a few bruises and IV and tape marks from a bit of a rough entry into the world, but he is doing wonderfully now. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these images and hope you do too.

Edmonton Children’s Photographer | Rainy Day

Shellie — Tue, 29 Jun 2010 23:02:18 +0000

We had to stop in the middle of this session to find an overhang to hide under because of the rain- it stormed for a bit and then cleared up for us to finish. The stormy skies are beautiful in the images though- so I guess a bit of rain was ok. LOL These little girls were so amazingly good- and can you believe how good looking they all are? So fun to photograph. :0) Thanks guys for a fun evening- I hope you love your sneak peek… just wait until you see the rest!

Edmonton Baby Photographer | Beautiful Gabe

Shellie — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 22:14:42 +0000

Here are a few images of my beautiful nephew Gabe- they were visiting for a bit, and I just had to take him out to play- what a sweetie. He was not at all fond of the grass touching him, but as long as we kept that nasty old grass away he is just always full of smiles!

I have 1 spot only left for my photographer’s workshop- and I will be looking for models for the workshop itself- keep checking back with the blog for your chance to have your child (or yourself if you are pregnant) be a model for the workshop. It will be worth your time. :0)

Edmonton Children’s Photographer | The Definition of Boy:

Shellie — Mon, 21 Jun 2010 22:45:22 +0000

“A Noise With Dirt In It.” Having 4 little boys myself I have always loved that definition of boys! These two cuties reminded me so much of that, as I was editing their images- I knew what I had to call this post. They are just 5 and 2 years old, and were up for anything that involved running or playing- not so much sitting. :0) It is actually what I love about boys- all that energy, and all those fun faces and expressions. These two gave me a LOT of fun looks and fun expressions, so their session was great! :0) I kept telling their mom to expect a lot of “lifestyle” type images- she asked me what that meant once- I was so distracted by her cute kids- I’m not sure I ever answered her question- “Life style Photography” is allowing the kids to be themselves- letting them run and play, and as a photographer- getting to join in the fun, by catching glimpses of who they really are- dirty faces, and funny looks included! :O)

I hope you love this sneak peek guys!

Edmonton Child Photographer | Sweet Sol

Shellie — Wed, 16 Jun 2010 16:37:48 +0000

Sweet, sweet Sol- what a handsome boy you are becoming! you might remember this cutie from 9 months ago, when he was brand new- now he is a great big 9 month old. He is still amazingly cute, and such a sweet baby. His mom says he is an amazing baby, and is such a blessing in their family. You can tell how much she loves him.

We had to take quite a walk for these images, but they were totally worth it. They were even worth me carrying those tires back UP that hill! :0) I just couldn’t choose which ones to show- this was just a mini session, but there are so many amzing images- I LOVE them all!

Enjoy!

Photographer’s Workshop Update

Shellie — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 18:43:58 +0000

Thank You all so much for all the interest in my up coming workshop! It was wonderful to receive so many emails expressing interest in it.

just wanted to clarify a few points…

I DO live in Canada, you DO need a passport if you fly here, but it is not a long flight- or like flying across the ocean- we DO speak the same language as you, and we don’t have a really strong accent, (so you should be able to understand me just fine! ). In September there will be no snow on the ground here- so you should be safe to drive! :0) LOL (However you will want to bring a jacket. :0) ) Passports are actually pretty quick to get- so if you apply now you will have plenty of time to get yours. And really shouldn’t you have a passport handy anyway? How else will your husband be able to sweep you away on a romantic European holiday! LOL

I will teach you everything I know- and you will walk away a better photographer. I am putting a lot of thought into this workshop and actually I have put it off as long as I have because I have always wanted to do a GREAT workshop- not just a workshop. I am excited! I know you all will love it.

I have filled some spots, and I do still have a couple available- so come on up – or over if you already live in Canada! There is no better way to improve your photography than by going and learning with someone who does something you want to do- so if you think I do something well- come and learn it from me! :0)
