Today’s Parent – Toronto’s Baby Guide Cover – MPH Photography – Toronto
I’m soo thrilled to announce that my image is on the cover of this year’s Today’s Parent – Toronto’s Baby Guide cover and special thanks goes to my little model Maya and her mom Amy for hiring me to do a shoot of their precious family in the first place last summer.
I only just found out this morning, and I tell you, what a great way to wake up. Yesterday wasn’t a bad day either as my hubby bought me a 70-200L 2.8 IS USM lens that I’ve been wanting for awhile and then today the news about the cover. It’s definitely been a great week and really I am just so grateful to be able to do what I love doing and then when stuff like this happens, it helps to reaffirm my decision a few years back to quit Canada post and do this full time, boy am I glad I did. I was scared to death to quit my job but looking back now, it was definitely the right decision.
Today’s Parent will be at the Spring BabyTime show this coming May and I for one can’t wait to check out their booth this year. Just about every parent in the GTA knows about the Annual Spring BabyTime show at the International Centre located at Airport rd, its the Ultimate Event for Pregnancy, Birth, Baby and Toddler. Here is the link to the event http://www.babytimeshows.ca/ and its on from April 30-May 2, you may just see me there on Saturday, as I plan to go and check it out. Added to say that Samantha says that there will be copies of the baby guide there as well, for anyone that wants one.
Here’s just a few things you can do there…
SHOP! TRY & BUY from over 200 Manufacturers, Retailers and Artisans.
REGISTER for all your baby needs with Babies “R”Us.
