Oh my,  yesterday was off to a rough start, computer glitches of course. However, I hopped in the car and zoomed to the studio and left the stress at the office. No one was in the office, so I figure with nobody to stick to the stress went some where else - sorry if it went to your house.
After my studio time, Selah and I was off to puppy school and then hit a "really too late if you are a good parent Benino Gelato session" - it was just what the day ordered. I wrapped things up with some evening chip fueled night editing, including this session of the stunning and much loved Kara.

Chelsea's family received a gift certificate from a long-time absolute favorite client (thanks Eva) who has purchased many Mckinnon certificate as gifts. Everyone she has given them to has been phenomenal to work with.
So I let Chelsea's family know that I had high expectations of them, no pressure or anything, but I knew they would be fun, relaxed and just as fantastic as all of Eva's other friends.

Well they were.

They drove down from Port McNeil for Chelsea's session and thankfully the weather was perfect.
We started in the studio an then headed to the park.  Someone had obviously sent Chelsea a memo about how much fun we were going to have as she was all smiles and laughs.

A sweet cozy post to go with this rainy day.
Keegan is a stunning little boy, who is such a blessing to his parents. His arrival was much anticipated!

Did I mention she brought me a today present before I even knew her, um, yah – really. She showed up at the today present party with a cupcake bath bomb from my new favorite store Flawless.

Some people are just meant to be a Mckinnon client, Kindle is one of them, she was excited to let me do my thing, she got what we were laying down, she caught our vibe, we were on the same train.....

She showed up for the session totally chilled, happy and laid back. This is something I always encourage as I think kids catch our vibe. Then she just went with the flow, she joined in my silly photo games, and let me and Aneka do our thing. 

She was open to where the session went, depending on the weather, light and the mood of her very busy toddler.

We met at the studio, started our session there and then cruised the ‘hood. Kindle loves what is happening at the corner and wanted to capture some of that – love that about her!

I was on the phone with Christine and was looking out my studio window, when I interrupted her to say "OMG, there is the cutest baby coming my way - seriously"

That was Kiri. She came into the studio for her session on Wed morning and brought it. Her eyes were sparkling, the red hair full of personality, a wardrobe of great outfits, perfect chubby arms, big smiles, snarls and smirks.

The session rolled easily, me shooting while mom and I ohhed and ahhed at Kiri and laughed at her performance.

Definitely some new fave's in this session.
