Congratulations to Hayley

I just wanted to shout out a big congratulations to Hayley for winning the free maternity photo session.  She entered into a contest on Facebook, posted her picture and won with the most votes!  She is a brave mom who is 5 months pregmant with her second child and she already has an 8 month old!  I would say she deserves this! I can't wait to do this session with her in August! Congrats again Hayley!

Easter bunny photos and contest

At the beginning of April I held Easter mini sessions with live bunnies and they were a hit! When the bunnies first arrived at my home, I honestly wondered what I was going to do after watching them hop away everytime anyone went near them. After settling in for a couple days though they ended up being perfectly behaved and did a great job. I had so many kids come and join me and we all had a blast! After the sessions the parents had the chance to enter their child/ren into the "favourite picture" contest on Tender Expression Photography Facebook page, and below is our winner. I want to say a HUGE congratulations and I can't wait to see everyone again next year!

Sweet little princesses

After not having a girl session for quite a long time, when the mom to these girls told me they are girly girls I was so excited!! I borrowed tutus, pulled out the crowns, flowers and even whipped up a tiny tutu for the baby. How fun! These girls were excellent in front of the camera and we had so much fun with our girly session!

Baby J

Baby J did so well with his very first photo shoot. His gorgeous eyes and sweet tender expressions say it all. I just loved the session with little guy and his parents so were great to get to know! I can't wait for future sessions together in the fall and/or Christmas!

K is 6 months!

I can't believe how time flies, especially with babies. It feels like I just did maternity photos for this little guy's mom and I'm already doing 6 months photos of him! He had so many expressions during this session that I found myself laughing outloud a few times while going through the pictures! I'm looking forward to his one year outdoor location session together and can't wait to see what tender expressions we capture next time!
