My Boys | Calgary Family Photographer

At least twice a year I drag my kids out for pictures. They are pretty good sports about it, but it’s certainly not their favorite thing to do! My oldest son Jack turned 10 last weekend so we went out to get his 10 year picture! It’s crazy that my baby is ten.  I remember so clearly laying in that hospital bed the night after he was born crying from the joy and feeling like I was the luckiest girl in the world at that moment.

We got a couple shots of my youngest as well and a few of them together for the wall. Here are some keepers and some outtakes!

Frosty Morning | Calgary Photographer

I took these shots a few weeks back early in the morning on my way to an engagement shoot. I love the hoar frost in the winter and it almost makes our Canadian winters worth it. I’ve been waiting for another hoar frost morning with a blue sky, but it hasn’t come so far or I just haven’t gotten up early enough. So instead of waiting for another frost I figure I should post these already.

Kerri Prenatal | Calgary Baby Photographer

Kerri is very close to her due date.  I’m so happy that I had the opportunity to photograph her gorgeous belly before the big arrival.  She is carrying twins and I was delighted by how big and perfect her belly was!!  I can’t wait to meet the new arrivals!

Marie & Chad | Calgary Photographer

Marie and Chad are getting married this August.  Sadly, I am already booked for their wedding day but I was happy to do an engagement session for them and their 2 lovely girls on a chilly Calgary morning.  It was cold, but these guys really sucked it up and you would never know from the pictures how cold they were.  We had a great time and with Marie’s enthusiastic, crazy in love and up for anything attitude it made for a super fun session.

Baby Scarlett | Calgary Baby Photographer

I love this family.  They’re so enthusiastic and fun.  I first met them summer of 08 and did a generational session with them and the grandparents.  Then in 09 Hayley was pregnant and I had the pleasure of photographing her beautiful belly.  Here is the awesome result of that belly:

I loved this little scene in her bedroom and was so happy that she didn’t mind sitting in the little rocking chair.

hayley Griffin - Thanks Paula, you did a great job with my difficult crew! Can’t wait for out door pics in the fall when hopefully all the kids will cooperate and Grandma and Grandpa can get some new ones of their grandkids and them!

Remember Summer?! | Personal

Do you remember it?  It seems so long ago now as I look outside and see white everywhere.  In these winter months I don’t shoot as much, so I’ve had time to catch up on my personal pictures.  Here are some shots from our summer vacation in Vernon.  We rented a house on the lake with my sister and her family.  We had a great time and didn’t actually kill each other by the end!
