My baby boy turned 2 today.  It is hard to believe how quickly 2 years can go by, and now my youngest is not so much a baby anymore.  He had a little party yesterday afternoon, with the neighbourhood children.  He loves Elmo, so I figured he would love an Elmo themed party.  I spent the last week, however, telling him about his party, and his response everytime i asked him what kind of party he was having:  “Dora!”  Even at the age of two he has a sense of humour. 

He was very excited to pick up his cake with me on Saturday morning (made by the very talented Kim Best in Botwood).  When we got home with it, there were still two hours until the party, and keeping him away from the cake was not easy.  At one point, while it was still in the box we caught him on the dining room table with his hand in the box (even though it was taped up) and one of the stars in his mouth.  He spent the next two hours asking if he could jsut eat Elmo’s nose, or perhaps his eye.   Of course that was the first thing he ate, after the pizza.   He was tried to trick me into playing hide and seek.  Knowing what he was up to I hid in the kitchen where I could still see him “counting”.  When he thought I was out of sight, he went immediately for the cake.   Once he knew I was watching him, he covered up his eyes and went back to counting.  All while yelling at me to go hide.  What a great day!

Adrienne and Josh were married on a beautiful Sunday in October.  Well there were a few showers here and there, but we were still able to to get outdoors for some great photos.  We were even basking in the glow of a rainbow for awhile.  The location for their ceremony and later that evening their dance was the Humber River House in Nicholsville, Newfoundland.  What a beautiful spot.  A great place to rent for the weekend, complete with hot tub and an indoor pool.  The huge living room window offered a gorgeous backdrop to this lovely ceremony.  I could even get a bird’s eye view from the balcony.  Here are a few for now.  I will have to return with more photos as I get them completed.

For those of you who are not too sure what my Christmas cards look like, here are a few samples of the flat, folded and tri-fold card look like.  I typically select a couple of designs that I think will suit the photo you have choosen, and you decide what suits your taste the best.  Please forgive the poor photography on these

This engagement session with Andrew and Jennifer was a ton of fun.  We experienced the typical Newfoundland “four seasons in one day” weather.  It was raining when we arrived at the golf course.  That passed over and there were moments of sunshine mixed with lots of good cloud cover.  Then when we went to our second location (down on High Street – Thanks guys I have been wanting to do that for a long time) we had to wait out more rain and even hailstones.  Yes hailstones.  When it was all over we finished our session with a few more laughs and horn honks from passerbys. 

I am looking forward to your wedding next summer!

I met these sweet little girls nearly two years ago when they were around two weeks old.  It was my first time photographing newborn twins and I was so excited!  We met for this session on a cold Sunday morning in St. John’s after postponing for weather the previous day.  Sunday was no warmer, but it was a little drier as we spent some time in Bowring Park.  Luckily, they didn’t seem to mind the cold too much and were eager to feed the ducks and explore the park.
