The beautiful Akerele family came for their maternity session last month in anticipation of their newest family member! We did a few outfit changes and Tolulope was stunning in each and every outfit. We also did some graduation photos for Anthony’s PhD, which we joked was like another baby! I think my favourite images are the family ones though because you can tell how excited Zion is to be a big brother! I can’t wait to photograph their new addition. Congratulations Akerele family!

Lily brought her newborn baby little brother Patrick to see me last week when he was just 10 days old! She was SO proud to be a new big sister, and was so sweet with him. Patrick was so cooperative and relaxed during his session. We got through a lot of different set ups, including a lovely blue, a speckled beige from Freebird Prop Shoppe, and a neutral beige. We also did some prop shots, including in a bucket set up from DIH Photography Props. Mom and Dad picked a white backdrop for their family photos, which I think turned out so sweet!

I can’t believe that Ivy is ONE already! This year seemed to fly! I photographed Ivy’s newborn photos last year and I can’t believe how fast time has gone! Ivy came by for first birthday portraits in her very stylish Hadley Rose Designs romper and headband in purple. She was super smiley and hammed it up for the camera! :) We did some family photos with her gorgeous Mom and Dad! What a lovely family. Thanks guys for coming back to me again with precious Ivy. Happy Birthday sweetheart!

Chloe came by for her first birthday portraits and cake smash session the other day! Boy did she have a lot to say and we had a lot of fun! We did some portraits and then brought out her cake! She was delighted with it, and dug in! There were sprinkles everywhere! Once she was done with her cake she had a little dip in the tub and made quite a splash :) Happy birthday sweet girl!
