SubscribeMeet Amber.
She’s going to be a ballerina. She saw one recital, and now she has the dancing bug. She spent much of our time together twirling, jumping, and spinning. What a doll!
She is soon going to welcome a brother or a sister and there is no doubt she will entertain her new sibling for hours!
Mom is simply glowing and Dad is one proud Poppa.
Congratulations! I can’t wait to hear if it’s a boy or a girl!
February 7, 2010 - 2:29 pm - These are lovely, Christine! Little Amber is adorable, and she looks like she had a ton of fun dancing for you :) I love the 2nd last one, especially - great perspective!
February 7, 2010 - 6:26 pm - Spectacular as always. I'm super sorry I don't have beautiful maternity keepsakes like this.
February 7, 2010 - 6:59 pm - So sweet... I think I would have been giggling the whole time lol
February 7, 2010 - 7:21 pm - Thanks so much for the great memories you have given us. These pictures look so great, I can't wait to see the rest of them!
February 7, 2010 - 8:21 pm - Great Pictures!!! What a beautiful family Anita!!!!!!
February 8, 2010 - 12:49 am - I love these pictures!!!! They are all soooo beautiful!! I cannot stop looking at the one where Amber kisses the baby... It's very sweet...
Meet Rylie.
I took pictures of little R. when she was just weeks old. She is now two and so full of energy, curiosity, and life (she can also dance it out to Beyonce and The Black Eyed Peas…a girl after my own heart).
Meet Rylie’s little sister Jordyn. Isn’t she adorable?
Near the end of our session we tried for a quick family shot, but sometimes kids just aren’t in the mood for sitting (especially when they are two years old). You just have to roll with it! Personally, it’s these types of pictures like this last one that I enjoy most because it just speaks of true life, and life is so good!
February 1, 2010 - 2:31 pm - Christine, What a beautiful family...your pictures really showcase their beauty! :)
Amy and I jumped at the opportunity to capture Tawny’s spirit. Tawny is one of those people that light up a room when she enters. She is reflective, passionate, vivacious, but also carries with her a peaceful demeanor that just puts others at ease.
These pictures signify a place that she has come from, but most importantly a future that she is embracing with a spirit of promise and enduring power. The blanket of clean fresh snow represents the new, the tree represents a time in her past, and the red is all about empowerment .
This is Tawny’s Spirit.
Thank you Tawny for sharing your beautiful spirit with us!

January 17, 2010 - 10:36 pm - LOL dam technology I was telling my comment would go through. So I had to try and remember what I wrote before, now it's on there twice Opp's :P
January 17, 2010 - 10:54 pm - Those are awesome pictures!
January 18, 2010 - 12:09 am - THis was an incredible experience for me... I think every mother, wife, woman should get the opportunity to express herself and be seen through someone elses eyes (lens)! For me it has been a time of reflection on the past and what is ahead for me. I think all women deserve to see what this looks like for them.. I am still beaming from this session, actually I may be higher today than I was on that day! It has been a very powerful thing for me and makes me feel like I can conquer the world! I just may do that tomorrow... :) This has come to me at a time where I am taking new paths and finding new direction and quite possibly has given me that little extra boost I needed to help me seek what I desire! :) Thanks Ladies!!!
January 18, 2010 - 3:33 pm - Those are beautiful. I especially love the third one from the end and the last one.
January 19, 2010 - 9:20 am - I love shooting with you Christine <3 We make such a good team :) Beautiful work!
January 27, 2010 - 10:14 am - Completely, totally, utterly amazing - Tawny, you are gorgeous, and my luscious photog frineds, you are awe-inspiring!
January 18, 2010 - 2:11 am [...] Christine and I had an amazing time shooting her and I am sure that if our feet weren’t chunks of ice , we would still be shooting [...]
He has the best personality!
January 13, 2010 - 10:33 am - :p to him, too.
January 13, 2010 - 9:35 pm - Exactly what I was going to say, Hope! :P Teddy! (He's so darn CUTE, Christine, but I think he looks like a distinguished old man in these photos, out for a stroll... until you get to the silly tongue!)
January 18, 2010 - 9:10 am - He is such a cutie!! How is liking the snow?? He looks very cute indeed!! Thanks Christine! ;)
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! We are back home again after a relaxing trip to see our families. We spent our Christmas Skidooing, skating, eating, visiting, lounging, card-playing…ahhh it was such a good Christmas.
When I returned home, the B. Family’s pictures were calling me just waiting to be edited and blogged! Check out Part 1 here.
Again, I have to say this session was a great way to end the year. I had a blast photographing the fun connection within this family (who happen to be very dear to my heart) even though we couldn’t feel our fingers when we were done. I see Christmas cards for next year all over these photos 
Happy New Year! I’m looking forward to capturing more life and love in 2010!
December 29, 2009 - 2:47 pm - Definitely Christmas card material :)
January 1, 2010 - 8:51 pm - These are great!!! I LOVE them!
January 6, 2010 - 3:40 pm - Great set, Christine! I love the first set and this one. The snow angels one is awesome! :)
January 14, 2010 - 9:55 am - What a total riot!!!
This is my last session of 2009! It was a bit last minute, but when my friends contacted me to capture their family having fun on the tobogganing hill, I was so excited! They are such a fun family, so these pictures really fit their personality.
Here is a quick sneak peek! I will blog a few more after Christmas! Merry Christmas everyone!
December 22, 2009 - 1:47 pm - I am pretty sure that this is one of my favorite sessions this year!!!!! Absolutely Awesome!! Michelle, you have a beautiful family & you are simply stunning :)
December 22, 2009 - 1:59 pm - Hilarious!!!! I can hardly wait to go tobogganing with my family. New Year's can't come fast enough for me!
December 22, 2009 - 2:15 pm - This is awesome! So fun :) And Amy's right, Michelle... you are one gorgeous lady!!
December 22, 2009 - 3:26 pm - Such great pics!!!! Love the family snow scene...
December 22, 2009 - 7:54 pm - Thanks for much for the nice compliments. I wanted photos because tobogganing is an activity my family always has fun doing together & Christine always captures the moment perfectly.

Meet miss Kaylee.
Kaylee is 9 months and full of personality…such a fun age! This will be her first Christmas! I’m sure she will have fun ripping into all that Christmas wrapping and will most likely prefer playing with the boxes to the gifts inside.
In March she will be a big sister! So much to be thankful for this Christmas!

Meet the H. family.
They also happen to be my family Lee is my hubby’s brother. I was back to my home-town Vermilion for a family reunion, so I had the opportunity to shoot their family. It’s been 3 years since we last had a family session together, and Koti has sure grown up since then!
The morning of our session was beautiful. I have spent so much time this year shooting at sunset, I forgot how much I loved the sweet light of the morning. Dreamy light filtered in through the trees and created the perfect conditions for some fun with shadows
I love capturing the love between married couples. Love, Love, Love.
Thanks for spending the morning with me! Love you!
December 1, 2009 - 11:35 am - Such beautiful pictures and a beautiful family!!! Can't believe how grown up Koti is!!!
