It is a beautiful emotional human connection, photographed… I am convinced that you can feel the love I feel when looking at these photos… here is what this mother wanted to share about this Connection photo session:
“This Connection Session was a wonderful experience that captured a special moment in time. I held my young child in my arms as we cuddled, talked, and played. It truly was a time of connection. Every time I look at the pictures from that photo session I can’t help but smile and feel warm and fuzzy inside. These photos are like the ones I always aim to get with my own home camera but never really achieve. I started off the session being pampered with getting my hair and makeup done. I hadn’t done that since my wedding 10 years ago! It set the tone for how special the session was going to be. We had such fun doing it and now have a set of photos that is truly unique. I love seeing the tender embraces and genuine affection in each portrait. That moment in time with my baby is so special and I love having photos that show our deep emotional connection.”
Then why do we always wait to have these photos taken? Don’t wait to create these meaningful portraits! Don’t wait to exist in photographs with and for your children… I know, I want portraits like these of my myself with my daughter NOW!
These two were so much fun to work with! They are so different in their personalities but both so adorably cute! Asha was so expressive and such an actress when singing to the famous this season among children “Let it go” song 🙂
Shay is gorgeous! She is happy, sometimes sassy and always sweet! I have so much to say about this photo session that I don’t even know where to start… So I won’t. I will say one thing: it turned into personal expression…
I am happy to share a little bit of my own family… My precious treasure and the reason for my existence – my Oksana. These are my memories… This is who she is now, at this time in our lives!
Words cannot describe just how much she means to me! She provokes multitude of emotions that I am happy to feel whenever I am close to her or far away from her… I always feel blessed.
Brittany turned 1! And graduated from babies to toddlers 🙂 It was so great to photograph this new stage in Brittany’s life and catch up with the family…
I got to find out that Britt is an extremely active and curious toddler! Her favorite foods are cheese and berries. Her favorite book is “Peek-A-Who”! (She loves to look at herself in the mirror at the end.) She loves it when Mommy and Daddy sing the ABC’s to her. She loves watching her favorite show “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.” Her favorite person is Mommy, but Daddy is right up there too! Britt LOVES animals in general, but is particularly fond of dogs and even knows how to say “woof, woof”! She also loves to play outside.
Britt was not quite walking at the time of the shoot, but is now full steam ahead! She is also learning to say a few words and signs.
At this age, her parents are the most proud of “her active and curious spirit! She is such a smart girl and is becoming very aware of the amazing world around her.
We LOVE to spend time together as a family! Our favorite activities include taking walks together, going to the park, going to the zoo, sharing meals together, and ‘play’ wrestling on the floor!”
Mommy told me: “This session reflects on the beautiful and smart little girl that Britt is growing up to be. It also showcases the joy that we have found together as a family of three.”
Brittany’s mom shared: “I remember how my Mom saw your work at her doctor’s office and was very impressed!” …That is how our friendship started 🙂
“We decided to do the first year package to capture Britt’s first year on camera! Babies grow fast and we wanted to create a keepsake that would help us to remember the various stages and ‘looks’ Britt went through in her first year.
You helped us create beautiful portraits that are creative, cute and will stand the test of time!
We were thrilled to be able to use my husband’s police gear for one of the portraits. It’s a great way to honor the work that he does and made for really cute photos of Britt in the BIG shoes and hat that her father wears!
We also did a set with hearts to commemorate February, the month Brittany was born.
We were thrilled at Marina’s suggestion to use the same tree branch and beads from her newborn and 6-month photos to show how much she’s grown and have a common theme across all 3 sessions.
And finally, the smash cake photo was quite a treat for everyone! It was so fun to watch Britt try cake for the first time and we are so glad to have had the chance to capture professionally memories of this special moment.
We also appreciate how you were so patient with Britt and knew tricks to make her comfortable and happy during the sessions.
We LOVE the results! There are a lot of baby photographers out there, but you bring a unique creativity to the photos that makes them stand out.”
It was such a pleasure to meet and get to know this family! I am looking forward to watch Brittany grow up and this family to grow 🙂
Oksana looks so grown up! But she will always be my baby…my love…my life. Everything I do is because I have her, I plan everything around her and about her. Her happiness is my constant goal. She is getting more and more mature and asks challenging questions, makes interesting statements and clever remarks 🙂 I am enjoying every moment with her and soaking in every emotion and memory. We are a great family and a team. Simple moments bring most joy and warm up my heart. It never changed, ever since I first met her 5 years ago and it will never change. Enjoy being a witness of one of the happy ordinary moments in our life 🙂
Aiden and Tali are always so great to work with! They laugh, hug, make faces, tease each other, make mum proud, joke with dad and always make the best of the time together. Mom and dad are more in love with each other and their children than ever! I love and admire this family… Their children is their true treasure and they are growing up so balanced, knowing how much love means in this family!
I love that we were able to personalize this portrait session with their own bench which looked so great in the family portrait. This was one of the last warm autumn days and I am so happy we were able to catch that sun! Enjoy!
