London Ontario Children Photography | Charlotte

I had the joy of welcoming sweet little Charlotte and her mama in my home studio recently. We wanted to take a “school photo ” style portrait to match her big brother’s, but we also wanted to have some fun. I had a gorgeous tutu I’d been dying to use, and this lovely little princess was the perfect model. Here’s a peek at our session!

London Ontario Baby Photography | Neve

On an unseasonably warm (and snow-free) Winter’s afternoon, I noted the 8 degree (Celsius) weather, the lovely golden pre-sunset light and my happy 6 1/2 month old and made a spontaneous decision to grab my daughter, my vintage beverage crate, some blankets, my camera and head to a nearby field for a spur of the moment session. I just love the golden-pink haze that colours these photos, and the old crate set against a field is quite a winning combination, if you ask me! I love having my own little model for these spontaneous photo shoots. Thanks for humouring me, Neve.

London Ontario Newborn Photography | Teagan

Just over a year ago, I headed to the Arva Flour Mill with Evan and Melissa for a fun couple session. This past December, we had a blast taking maternity photos in Pinafore Park, less than a month before baby Teagan was born. It was such a pleasure for me to photograph this sweet little boy. I absolutely love working with a family over time and documenting each precious chapter of their story. Here are a few photos of the little guy!

London Ontario Promotional Photography | Whitehills Childcare Association

I was very excited when Whitehills Childcare Association contacted me about doing some promotional photography at their various sites for their new website. I had a blast interacting with the children and trying to capture their spirit and creativity. I’ve included a few photos here, but you can view the new website here and click on the various links to see more.

*Note: While most of the photos on the website were taken by Raw Footage Photography, there are a handful of photos that were taken by Whitehills staff.

London Ontario Maternity Photography | Evan and Melissa

One of my absolute favourite things about being a photographer is working with a family over time and celebrating milestones with them. I did a couples session with Evan and Melissa last year and was so pleased when they asked me to take maternity photos for them as well. These guys are naturals in front of the camera, not to mention hilarious and so fun to work with. The cherry on top? I get to photograph their fresh little baby boy soon. Congratulations Evan and Mel, I can’t wait to meet your little man!

Here are a few photos from our session.

London Ontario Family Photography | Derek, Allison and Alexis

Alexis and I go way back. I photographed her at 3 months, 5 months, at her first birthday party, at 2 years old and with her family twice. She was my first subject when I started my journey into the world of portrait photography, and I can’t believe how much she’s grown!

This adorable family couldn’t be any cuter and we had a blast during our session, despite the cold. Here are a few photos from that day.

London Ontario Children Photography | Bronwen, Charlotte and Paige

These three lovely sisters have grown so much since their photography session last year! This time we opted for indoor locations due to the chilly weather. Even inside, we had a blast, which isn’t hard to do with such sweet and hilarious girls!

Here are a few photos from our session.

London Ontario Newborn Photography | Baby Noah

This little guy is such a sweetie. I remember photographing his family when his mama was pregnant with his older brother – it’s so nice to work with a family over time and see them grow! Baby Noah definitely made himself comfortable and insisted on stretching his little legs straight out every time we tried to tuck them in. His little personality is already starting to shine through! Here are a few shots from our session.

London Ontario Family Photography | Charlotte, Cory, Chelsie and Olivia

I recently met up with this adorable family of four on a cool, crisp Autumn day in Victoria Park for a photography session. I had the pleasure of taking Charlotte’s maternity photos, Olivia’s newborn photos, Olivia’s two-year-old photos and previous family photos as well, so it was fun to meet up with them again and see how the girls are growing. Here are a few shots from our session.

London Ontario Wedding Photography | Will and Melissa

One of my favourite things about photographing a wedding is capturing all of the little details that the bride and groom spent hours planning and perfecting, and I knew from peeking on Melissa and Will’s wedding blog that this wedding would be overflowing with creative details. With a bright colour scheme pulled from the delightful fabric that appeared everywhere from the aisle runner to the handmade napkins, this event oozed cheerfulness. Not a single detail was overlooked, and the entire event was cool, creative and completely unique. Felt flowers. Mason jar juice bar. Paint by number guest book. Need I say more? And we haven’t even mentioned the wedding party’s footwear. While the guys looked snazzy in their converse shoes, the girls sported bright red TOMS. Will and Melissa definitely found a way to inject fun and personality into every part of the day, and you could tell that everyone present was having a great time, myself included. Here are a few of my favourite shots from the day.
