Any Day Now Birth Services

It's Spring!  As the days get longer warmer and nature is emerging from the long Winter cold with a fierce vengeance, so, too, are many of us emerging with renewed energy to bring forth life to our dreams.  I've got my hand in a bunch of new projects at the moment, all which I am very very excited for!  There is really nothing more fun and fulfilling than working hand in hand with inspiring women who really get you.  One lady I am particularly excited to work with is my new lady friend, Sarah Dexter, of Any Day Now Birth Services.  We are currently revamping her website and had a fantastic photoshoot in her new workspace last week, documenting a few of the lovingly hand-made items that she includes in her post-partum Bundle of Joy packages.  Just a few sneaks here from that shoot...

CHEERS to collabing with inspirational Mamas!
More exciting things to come!

Maternity Session with Tera + Kat

I am so so thrilled with how these photos turned out considering how impromptu this session came together!  So happy to have captured a few moments with Tera's beautiful belly with Kat with just a few weeks before the big day.  Love you both so much and can not wait to meet sweet Baby Tyde this summer!!!

You guys are the cutest pair

The Krasovecs

Took a break from my own crazy family life to photograph the sweetest beginning to another family's crazy life-to-be.  The Lower Mainland is a small area, smaller than we think.  Chelsea found me through a co-worker who just happens to be a very good friend of mine that I have photographed many times and whose sister I photographed last Fall with the arrival of their first baby, Bowen.  It turns out Chelsea already knew me as we went to high school together!  Of course, she remembers me as the Asian girl who made out with her boyfriend (and now husband) at the bus top ALL THE TIME, but now we have 3 kids so it's all good.  Ha!

Sometimes I get caught up in the studio set up trend of modern day Anne Geddes photos.  It's hard not to with the beautiful even lighting and the many props on hand, but I need to constantly remind myself that it isn't how I enjoy creating memories.  I love capturing babies and families in their home, in the natural light that is part of their everyday environment, especially during these precious early days.  I loved this session, and not just because it had great light in numerous rooms.  It was great energy and I was over the moon to be holding a teensy tiny newborn all over again...

Welcome to the world, Pierce!
