Surprising love, right from the start – Coquitlam Newborn Photographer

Welcome to the surprising introduction of Baby A.  Mama-to-be J and I had been in contact for months, planning her maternity session.  We chose a date in January, many weeks before her March 4th due date, and prepped for the session.  A few days before the session J called to say that she was in early labour and wasn’t sure what was going to happen. We kept in touch, and for a brief moment it looked like she was going to get released for a few days to get ready for baby.  We booked in our session for a Wednesday, hoping that labour would hold off and we could capture her maternity moments. The little one had other ideas, though.  At 34 weeks baby decided he had waited long enough to meet his parents and J went back to the hospital to give birth.  Baby A was 6 weeks early, but a healthy little preemie.

I got to finally meet J, S, and Baby A at our newborn session a few days before the actual due date.  Enjoy these teasers of your amazing little man…

First Newborn of 2015 – Coquitlam Newborn Photographer

Little Mr.K was my first newborn in the studio this year, and he was a superstar.  Not even a week old, and he rocked his first photoshoot by sleeping wonderfully for me the entire time.  Big sister was a wonderful helper, and even kept me going by offering me lollipops during the session.

Here are a few sneaks from the session…. enjoy!

A Sweet Christmas Present – Squamish Newborn Photography

I’ve been friends with the M family for quite a few years now… we met at a ball diamond, then I photographed as they exchanged diamonds, and was there to document their son’s first week of life, so it is a huge privilege to get to photograph the newest addition to the family.

Sweet little miss S made her entrance a few weeks before Christmas, but she’s still the best present the family can get this holiday season.  And, unlike her older brother, she slept like a dream for our session.  I am crossing my fingers that she continues to be an all-star sleeper for her parents.

Happy holidays M family… enjoy your Christmas blessing! Merriam1 Merriam2 Merriam3 Merriam4 Merriam5 Merriam6




A sweet little girl — Coquitlam Newborn Photography

Little miss M came to my studio, all cuddled up and sleepy.  She was a doll, letting me pose her with her sleepy smiles, and then she would grace me with her contented awake glaces.

Although little miss M was almost 2 months old, she was easy to work with… probably because her parents are so laid back and relaxed.

Enjoy your teasers…
