Motherhood

 

This is a recent shot from a studio session I did. As much as I love the big, loud moments with huge expression and bright colours...there is something equally as appealing to me as these quiet moments. These soft moments of motherhood. They aren't so obvious. We have to search for them. But they are so precious because in amongst the temper tantrums and the teething, we might forget sometimes that they existed.

Celebrating Mother's

There were lots of cute little kids and their moms at my event this weekend, but I decided to share this image first because I want a photograph like this with my mom. That's all I want for Mother's day ;) Loved seeing and meeting all the mothers this past weekend. Lots to share--I promise, but I just couldn't resist this pretty shot to get the ball rolling.

Oh--and I'm not saying this daughter isn't cute and little...but, I will say that she was very well behaved and fully deserved her treat afterwards.

Sophia Models

I have been super duper busy moving and setting up my fabulous new studio space. But, that doesn't mean that I haven't been shooting! I have...I just haven't been sharing. Thought I'd take the opportunity to share a few headshots from a recent shoot I did for Sophia Models. They are updating their child roster and I have been hired as the exclusive photographer for their headshots. If you think your child might have the right stuff, contact them to learn more ;)

**and there are 5 spots left for my Celebrating Mother's Event. Makes the perfect Mother's day gift ;)

A Muskoka Summer

I love photographing families in places that are special to them. This past summer, I was able to visit this family up in Ontario cottage country. It was my favourite kind of session. We just hung out on the hammock, the trampoline and the dock...drinking Muskoka Ginger Ale and eating goldfish crackers while mom and dad talked about how they spent the summers of their youths there...and, then I made them get on a big floatie and enjoy the lake. Nice way to spend a summer evening in Muskoka!!

So many images that I just love...thought I'd share a good chunk of this session so you could see what a Dana Pugh family photography session is all about :)

I have a few spots left and that glorious fall sunshine is here. I'd love to photograph your family enjoying Calgary's fall weather(now that we got the snow out of the way).
