My last session of the day was with Rebecca and her family. Just like with the rest of the families, they were so great in front of the camera. The sun was already a bit lower in the sky, so the lighting was getting really flattering for a lot of the photos. The Tree Farm is such a nice place to walk around and take photos. You can go from towering trees as a backdrop to a secluded trail. The possibilities are endless. I may just have to book some more sessions here before Fall is over!

Cassandra + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
One of my last sessions of the day was with Cassandra and her family. I actually went to high school with her and her brother Jayden, so it was great to spend some time with her family. They were very laid back which made for such natural looking photos. Going in to mini sessions there is always a part of me that worries about getting enough photos, but I have yet to have a problem with it. It’s easy to do when you have a family like Cassandra’s to work with!

Kahla + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
My mini session with Kahla was another very spontaneous one, mainly because of her two boys. I love photographing kids though, because they are always just so full of energy, and there are so many opportunities for candid moments. As you can see from the photos below, I captured a few of those.

Jill + Family Mini Session - Tree Farm
The best thing about portrait sessions, is meeting new families. Case in point this past weekend. I met a few different families during my mini session day. Jill and her family were one of those. They were such a pleasure to photograph. We actually covered a lot of ground in just 30 minutes, but in no way did it feel rushed.

It was a busy Sunday full of mini sessions at the Tree Farm in Thunder Bay. My first session of the day was with a very talented local artist Helen and her family. I’ve done product photos her before, but this was my first time photographing her with her family. I was super excited to do so.

Danielle + Family Mini Session - Centennial Park
My first of many mini portrait sessions to come over the next month or so took place earlier today with Danielle and her amazing family at Centennial Park. It had been a while since she last had portraits taken of her family and their parents were in town, so it was perfect timing.

Jennifer + Carmine Wedding
One of my last weddings of the year took place at Valhalla Inn with Jennifer and Carmine. I was so excited to spend a day with such a beautiful and kind couple, and also the rest of their family and friends. The good thing about the times we are in now, is that weddings have no choice but to be smaller and much more intimate. I really do enjoy smaller weddings, I almost feel like I’m part of the family. My day started with the getting ready shots. It was a nice way to ease into the wedding day.

Eden + Chris Family Portraits - Kakabeka Falls
I’ve lost track how many times I have photographed Eden and Chris, but each time I do, it’s even better than the last. Add in the fact that they now have an absolutely beautiful house in Kakabeka Falls, which is simply amazing. Their son Orson, just keeps getting bigger and bigger. He pretty much dictated the whole session, which I’m completely fine with.

Devin + Mitchell Wedding - Shebandowan Lake
Devin and Mitchell got married earlier this month at their camp on Shebandowan Lake. Even though a few of my weddings have been postponed until next year, I was thankful to be able to still shoot theirs. It was a small and intimate outdoor wedding. Luckily, the weather cooperated, although, it would have been nice if it was a little cooler! The location was Devin’s camp on Shebandowan Lake which is an absolutely gorgeous setting.

Busking from the Backyard
With almost all of the larger outdoor festivals and events being cancelled, I was super excited to hear an intimate backyard live stream being put on by The Bay Street Bastards. I knew I had to be a part of it, so I reached out to the organizer, Kontrol Media Studios to see if they need some coverage of the event. They said yes. :)
