Absolute Photography: Clear after the Storm - Grande Prairie Fine Art Photography

Lately most of us have been shovelling in our spare time, when we don't have time, and every moment in between. Or at least that's what it feels like! Something like 30-40 cm of snow fell last weekend, creating terrible roads, stuck cars, and sore backs!! But today the sun came out and I was able to capture just a tiny bit of the beautiful place I call home. After all that - it doesn't look so terrible out there does it!?

Absolute Photography: Time with Family - Grande Prairie Family Photography

This was a great session! Long before Christmas this couple (on the left) contacted me for a holiday session. Their parents were coming across the country (from Newfoundland) to celebrate this year and they wanted to capture a few moments from this trip as a gift for them! We got together on the 28th and took some photo's both inside their home and outside in the quite chilly weather!


Check out these "newfy gloves" - I think they would prob work great as photographer mitts! Too cute.


Thanks guys!

Absolute Photography: Baby E @ 3 months - Grande Prairie Newborn and Children's Photography

Another special session! Baby E is my cousin's daughter. When her mommy told me she was having a girl I ordered this little angel onesie right away from the "You Are Good" store after seeing them on one of my favorite photographer's blog.

How adorable does she look all snuggled in here! So sweet.
More awake in these ones, little E decided that posing for the camera just wasn't enough and she rolled over (from tummy to back) for the first time during our session!

And of course some outside shots on a chilly winter day. I love her hat!

Absolute Photography: T Family - Grande Prairie Family Photography

This was a fun session. I don't often photograph families without babies & toddlers; and it sort of feels like "hmm what else should we do" when I don't spend the whole time running around after busy busy kids! I've probably said that before.. but it always seems to surprise me! Also, how can I not just love a location (their home) with beautiful white fences, animals, and stonework?

Thanks for coming out and "playing" in the snow with me T family!

Absolute Photography: Sweetie Pie - Grande Prairie Children and Family Photography

I met up with this family pre-snow - it was not pre-frost though! This early Saturday morning session was a chilly one! As the sun came up the grass was glittering and the light was my favorite - glowy!

This little sweetie pie was a pleasure to work with! Just my kind of kid - running around everywhere checking everything out and happy! Plus those EYES! They speak for themselves!







Come back and visit later! I will be posting some snowy sessions next :)

Introducing Baby Girl E!

Absolute Photography: Team McDonald - Grande Prairie Family Photography

Here is another family that I am very close to! Close enough in fact that I sat down for lunch in their kitchen pre-session.





I would also like to thank this family for their continued support throughout my lifetime! As one of my first paying clients, your encouragement over the last four years has not gone unnoticed! Thank you.

Absolute Photography: Sister time - Grande Prairie Family Photography

This session was a blast.. a blast of wind. Not to worry - this trio is quite used to hanging out in the great outdoors. For this session I met the girls (my cousins) out near Wanham and we played on some huge rocks, in a couple of different fields, and of course up against a granary (my fave). It's always great fun to photograph people that I am so close to.. and easier! Smiles come naturally, everyone is very used to me and my camera.. and I feel more comfortable being bossy! haha.

Absolute Photography: And then there were 3! - Grande Prairie Maternity Photography

This couple should probably be receiving the Absolute Photography "client of the year" award... if it existed! In February I photographed their engagement. In September, their wedding. In October, their Maternity photos...

And in November.. well I can't help but share ... their daughter's Newborn photos! Welcome to the family Baby E!!
