I am so lucky that in the relatively short time I’ve been photographing families, so many of my clients have chosen to be repeat customers. In late June I met up with Melanie for a one-on-one photographer chat* – we talked about tips and tricks for getting great shots of children, and Melanie brought her favourite subject to practice on. As for me, Gillian has grown so much since the last time I photographed her, of course I couldn’t resist getting more images!

*If anyone is interested in this kind of informal one-on-one workshop with me, get in touch!

Alexis was born in January, six weeks before his due date and just 12 days after I had photographed what was supposed to be only the second of three photoshoots charting Annik’s pregnancy. Apparently he was anxious to be in pictures ;) I’ve been waiting a long time to get to meet him, but finally in early June we had our photoshoot. Here he is at 20 weeks.

If you have an afternoon to spend among the pyramids of Edmonton’s Muttart Conservatory, I definitely recommend it. There’s plenty to photograph here!

On Saturday evening my partner and I ventured out for a photowalk, and I did some long exposures for the first time in ages. Here are a few of a starry Fredericton.

Because walking by this glorious tree is the highlight of every day. If only we had scratch-and-sniff computer screens. But we don’t, so instead you can click on any of these photos to open an extra-large size – perfect for your desktop background.

As promised, here are a few more shots from Vincenzo’s 6 month session! This little guy is growing up cute.

365 days | hibou photo | fredericton photographer

Today I finished my second Project365, a year-long photographic exercise in carting my camera absolutely everywhere and documenting everything I saw. I started on the day our moving-to-New Brunswick adventure began, and chronicled my first year of living in Fredericton. It got quite tedious at times and I’m not sorry to see this project come to an end, but at the same time am quite pleased with the accomplishment. Now I think I’ll take a little break from daily shooting, and rest up for some new adventures.

Here are a few favourites from the past year.

I have been neglecting my blog the past few weeks! Impromptu weekend trips to Moncton are eating up my processing time, but I’ve finally gotten back up to speed. Here are a few shots of the abounding springyness of Fredericton…

I reconvened with Vincenzo and family again this past weekend, and my how he has grown :) Part of the session was Easter themed, and Sam (aka Mom) had so many excellent props and clothes! I’ve put the rush on to get these done in time to be enjoyed for the holiday. I hope that everyone has a fabulous extra-long weekend, and I’ll be back with more from this session soon!

boyce farmer’s market | hibou photo | fredericton photographer

I’ve been lazy this winter, and when left to my own devices I don’t get out of bed before [unbelievably late time that would lead to public shaming if disclosed]. Fortunately now that Daylight Savings Time is upon us again, and now that the weather is being so very pleasant, both bringing out the sunshine and good cheer (let’s ignore the flurries in the forecast), I’ve been getting up and going to the farmer’s market again. Turns out I missed it.

Don’t let the yelling scare you away – the lady at the new Miso Soup & Croissant stand is very nice, and her wares are amazing. The goat cheese & onion croissant is, and I don’t think I’m exaggerating here, the best thing ever of life.

This kid was awesome. Surely it won’t be long until he has his cymbal.
