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:
New baby Scarlett. Love that name!
Mom had this great hairband for her.
I loved this little scene in her bedroom and was so happy that she didn’t mind sitting in the little rocking chair.

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!
Cousins having fun in front of the camera.
Nothing better on a hot day!
My crazy brother.
My sista.
My beautiful oldest son.
My crazy little one. I know that’s probably not the safest water to drink, but that’s how he rolls.
My cutie nephew.
Me and my boys.
My brother in law just taking it all in.
We were there as the wildfires were raging in Kelowna. This is a view from our house one night.
Stopped at the Emerald Lake Lodge on the way home. I have a wedding there this spring and wanted to scout it out.

My brother-in-law Craig. He’s always been camera shy, but I think over the years he’s gotten used to my camera in his face. He stopped for a visit on a bike trip so I snapped a few when he wasn’t looking!
My 10 year old son has been asking for a dog for the last year. It’s been sporadic, but he brings it up quite often. In December my husband (unbeknownst to me) told Jack that if he asked for 30 days in a row that we would get him a dog. Well he did it. Now don’t get me wrong – I am no dog hater. We had our beloved Kelsey for 9 years and she was our first baby. We have not been able to bring ourselves to get another dog until now. I do love dogs, but we built a new house 2 years ago and I love that my carpet has no stains, my leather furniture has no scratches and there is no poop in the yard. Despite that, I was prepared to get a dog again because I really do love them. However, we stayed at my sister’s house over Christmas in a house with a dog and 2 cats. Cory (my husband) quickly changed his mind on the dog front. He didn’t like the hair, the poop, the barf and the noise. It was funny actually. So once we got home we negotiated a deal with Jack – instead of a dog we would get him a Wii. It took a lot of convincing and we had to agree that in 2 years we would get a dog. I found a good deal on Kijiji and it was done that night! So for now we have the Wii that doesn’t need a walk every day, doesn’t need to be fed, doesn’t poop anywhere, doesn’t cuddle or run to the door to greet us, but it’ll do for now.

January 19, 2010 - 3:31 am - super cute guitar pics!!!!
He almost (just almost) makes me want to have another baby! I first photographed Tristan in his Mamma’s belly . It was so delightful to finally meet him and photograph this beautiful boy with the killer eyelashes.
Dad’s are so fun.
He fell asleep for a little while and then just woke up, lifted his head up and started smiling. What a cutie!
January 30, 2010 - 11:58 pm - What a cutie!!! Great pictures Paula!
January 15, 2010 - 3:49 pm - beautiful images. That baby is one of the cutest I have seen. Definitely well lighted shots.
These guys really sucked it up! It was freezing out, but they had great attitudes and we lasted for an hour out in the snow. The funny thing was that everyone had to hold their breath while I shot so that their white smokey breath didn’t wreck the pictures. What a great family!
These two just got engaged so we did a few shots of just them.
