Rebecca, Nick, and the girls

Spent a wonderful, sunny afternoon with this wonderful, sunny family a few weeks ago at Baker Park. Family sessions should always be scheduled around what's best for the littlest member, to optimize moods and energy all around, so that meant shooting mid-afternoon when the sun was pretty powerful. No trouble, though: we just sought out shady backdrops and balanced the intense ambient light with some off-camera flash.

I'm really pleased with how these images came out; there's a lot of personality and joy in this family, and they were game to bring it out for the camera throughout the shoot. Check it out:

The Cramptons

Holy moley am I behind on blogging! Fall portrait season means my computer time is pretty much all taken up by post-processing, gallery making, and such, but now I've found a few minutes to share a shoot with you.

And what a shoot it was! The Crampton family are some of my favourite people on earth, and so it was a pleasure to do family portraits with them once again. The girls are great fun, pretty much always on the verge of laughing; this time they were joined by the newest member of the family, little Everett.

We headed out to Baker Park one afternoon last month, and got some great, lighthearted shots. Here are a few:
