Croquet on the Lawn ~ Molnar Family Sneak Peek
Posted on May 20, 2012 at 9:00 am by Liz · No CommentsA few weeks ago I got a call from Barbara’s father. He was calling to inquire about a portrait session for Barb’s mother for her birthday. I was so excited and said a very enthusiastic yes!!
We scheduled the session for the same day as Barb and Chris’ engagement session and luckily enough we had the perfect day for both sessions.
The true star of the show was Dudley, their 6 year old Border Collie/Blue Heeler mix who they have had since he was 1 week old! Barb used to work at the Arnprior Humane Society and there came a need to nurse five puppies until they were ready to be adopted out at 8 weeks old. It was a lot of work, but they were able to raise the puppies to be healthy and happy and socialized and 1 day after the puppies left to go back to the humane society to be adopted, they drove BACK to get Dudley.
Dudley is very attached to his humans and absolutely LOVES playing fetch – so much so that he will carry every item you have thrown for him in his mouth at once!

Married over 30 years and still so in love!
The whole family in the woods behind their house.
Growing up, Barb and her parents would play croquet on the lawn every year on Mother’s Day and again on Father’s day. We decided to break out the set and have a game on their front lawn. Chris had never played before and everyone had a great time, including Dudley who supervised and tried hard not to run after the croquet balls!
We didn’t forget about their elusive cat, Grecia. She was hiding out in the bedroom to avoid the dog-fest that was going on in the rest of the house. We had some cuddles and got some shots of her as well.
Have a wonderful day,

Stud Muffin at Six Months ~ Tavis’ Sneak Peek
Posted on Mar 13, 2012 at 8:59 pm by Liz · 2 CommentsIt’s not every day that you get to photograph an adorable baby. What makes this even more special is the aforementioned cuteness belongs to some super-talented photographers who I am privileged to call friends.
Meet Tavis, a super amazing 6 month old baby who has a very spiffy wardrobe and a fantastic smile. This little dude is one of the most chilled babies I’ve ever met and has some great baby blue eyes.
His parents are Brian and Ivanette Hargreaves from the amazing BH Photography. They are fantastic wedding and portrait photographers and have a great studio in Almonte, where we had our session today. It’s such a cute town! I need to go back and get some of this apple cinnamon bread that Ivy was telling me about from a local bakery…but I digress.
My intern, Valerie, came along on this session as well and here she is working her magic with Tavis, who doesn’t seem too pleased with it – but I promise he loved her!
His other name should be: Stud Muffin
Tavis prefers not to wear shoes.
Brian is a volunteer firefighter and Tavis is proud of him. While he doesn’t like shoes, he likes fireman boots. Obviously because they are far better than boring old shoes.
“My Dad is a firefighter” – Tavis
All smiles for Mommy.
Family! I love how Tavis isn’t paying any attention to me at all haha – Valerie had him very captivated!
“My other car is my Dad’s shoulders” – Tavis
“They are kissing aren’t they…gross…” -Tavis
Baby on a railroad = stinkin’ cute! (please note that this railroad is barely used so we were very safe while taking these photos. I promise.)
…and we’re done.
Have a wonderful day,
Liz – Contact Me, I would love to speak with you!

Cupcake Smash and a Bath ~ Aidan’s Sneak Peek
Posted on Feb 18, 2012 at 3:46 pm by Liz · No CommentsI love seeing clients’ family’s grow and when Andrea contacted me for a 1 year session for Aidan, I was more than thrilled!
You may remember Aidan’s newborn session from last year. I was lucky enough to capture his early days and boy has he grown since then!
Remember Aidan at 6 weeks:
And here he is at 1! He had some cheerios….and they kinda got all over the place – by no fault of his own…obviously.
Family.
Mr. Aidan loves being thrown up in the air like an airplane.
We also decided that since Aidan had just celebrated his first birthday, we should let him go nuts on a cupcake…I think he liked it…
Seconds before he started “painting” the floor with the icing, using the cupcake like a crayon.
After we finished getting cupcake everywhere, Aidan was in desperate need of a bath. Aidain LOVES baths and had a fantastic time playing and splashing…and eating the bubbles. Yum.
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MEEEEEEEE” – Aidan.
Have a wonderful day,
Liz – Contact Me, I would love to speak with you!

Big Love in Little Italy ~ Krista and Dan’s (& Riker) Sneak Peek
Posted on Oct 29, 2011 at 5:11 pm by Liz · 1 CommentThis morning I spend a few hours walking around Little Italy and Westboro with Krista and Dan. These two were so much fun and braved the chilly morning with laughter and a few tears (on account of the cold making Krista’s eyes water like crazy).
These two lovebirds are getting married in Newfoundland next summer, but wanted some engagement portraits in the city that they now live in, and love.
We began in Little Italy, walking along Preston Street, taking in the morning sun and posing in front of cute restaurant after cute restaurant.
And in front of blue doors…
An aforementioned cute restaurant (don’t ask me which one though because I can’t remember! haha)
I just love this mural underneath the bridge and I asked Krista and Dan to pose like the silhouettes around them.
I also spent some time creeping in bushes and looking a bit like a stalker – I’m pretty sure that’s what they are laughing about here on the right.
We then headed to their apartment to pick up their fur-kid, Riker, the pug. This guy’s love of the camera was only to be outdone by his love for treats.
This is his, “Please Liz, may I have some more?” face.
Look I’m sitting, can I have the treat?
“Hey guys, whatcha doin’? I thought we were going for a walk here!” – Riker the pug.
Have a wonderful day,
Liz – Contact Me, I would love to speak with you!

A Warm Little Bundle for a Cold Winter’s Day
Posted on Jan 26, 2011 at 1:00 pm by Liz · 2 CommentsBaby Aidan made his appearance into the world on January 18th, two weeks late. He just wanted everyone to know that he was the one calling the shots now.
Aidan was a rock star during his session, including nailing daddy a few times when the diaper was off…but I think it was worth it – don’t you?
Lots more on this darling soon.
Have a wonderful day,
