Christmas Family shoot
I have been wanting to do a shoot like this for a while now, winter time, outdoors, rosy cheeks, cute hats and scarves and mits, Christmas cheer all around and the cold crisp air that reminds you that Christmas is near.
I love that they were up for the idea of going downtown to city hall, there is a big skating rink there and a huge Christmas tree and it just makes you smile to be down there at this time of year. If you haven’t, I highly suggest, bringing your skates (you can rent them too) and have a go around the rink, it will be a memory you will not soon forget.
I had the pleasure of photographing Agata and her family who came down all the way from Ottawa, well not just for me, but to spend time with their families for Christmas as well,lol. They have the cutest little girl and she was like a pretty little fairy, always flying around enjoying her surroundings and barely standing still for a minute. When she did sit still, my camera was extremely happy as she makes for one beautiful little model. Her parents aren’t too bad either,lol.
We had such a nice time, enjoying downtown and even the cold weather, we walked and talked and had a lovely session. I know I wasn’t suppose to edit any images before Christmas, but I just couldn’t wait, and I wanted to give them a little sneak peek as a Christmas gift, also as a thank you for driving me to my hubby’s work afterwards, which was mighty kind of them.
I really enjoyed our time together Agata, thanks again hon, hope you have a wonderful stay here in the city, enjoy your Christmas and hope you love the sneak peeks.
