I first met this wonderful family about 2 years ago at a local Sylvan Lake tradeshow! At the time, they only had one sweet darling little girl with the most hair I had EVER seen! It was so great to see them again, and let me camera see the amazing growth and changes in Ryann as well as meet her younger brother Crosby! ( Doesnt he have the CUTEST name?) Well his darling face matches how cute his name is too! I hope you love your sneak peeks!

Glorious Red Hair! ~ #RedDeerChildrensPhotographer

As many of you may or may not know.. I love red hair.. and my portfolio is sadly lacking in cute little red haired children. So a few months ago i put out a quick casting call for some red haired children.. well this gorgeous little one is a result of that call. My camera and I instantly loved her wonderful self. She is warm, funny and totally a wonderful 2.5 yr old little girl! We did this session at a new location I have been driving by for about 2 years and finally decided that I NEED to try it.. I AM in love! and I can not wait to use it again! We battled some nasty I mean NASTY bugs for this session, but despite a few bites, i think we all managed to come out pretty swell!

Celebrating Adoption ~ Red Deer Children’s Photographer

Deanna — Fri, 30 Jul 2010 15:12:45 +0000

first of all for any photogs out there that don’t know what I am talking about.. here is the site..Celebrating Adoption
and a small blurb from their site

“Celebrating Adoption came into existance in early 2006. I was asked to photograph a family as they prepared to start the adoption process. One of the images from the session was to be used on the file given to prospective birth mothers. As a strong believer in adoption, I was very touched by the love that this family had for each other and the hope they held to add another child to their family. I wanted to celebrate with this family when they brought their new baby home so I offered a free session. It was a long road for this family with many tears shed as they waited for their child. In the meantime, I was introduced to more adoptive families that wanted to include the art of professional portraiture in their celebration. I have been blessed to photograph domestic adoptions, international adoptions, infants and older children. With each family, the Celebrating Adoption concept formed in my mind. Photographers from across the country asked to be part of the program, many of them adoptive parents themselves. ” Jennifer

OK so forward to my clients.. a few months ago i received an email from a wonderful adoptive mommy inquiring about a session.. well with work, school and RAIN..we had to post-pone the session for several weeks! But on Monday we finally had the stars align for us! This family has a wonderful blog that talks all about their adoption experience. For a great read click here! The Vriend Family Expansion

and without any more writing…Here is the reason for this wonderful session!

Please meet Mirtalem and her WONDERFUL family!

I had the pleasure last week of visiting some past clients. Its been a few years, but that is totally one of the best things about my career.. I get to meet my clients over and over again, it often gets to the point where I feel more like a friend than a service provider! I wonder which of my blog stalkers can pick out the baby photos of this sweet little girl? I will give you a hint.. its a 2008 blog post! LOL. oh yes.. and no answering if you know this family! thats cheating! LOL!

Since these are a past client, I am going to add a fun little game into play with this post.. if you can drum up 30 different people to leave some love ( ie a comment)… Robyn and Darcy will receive a free 5×7 of their choice! Cool perk of being a past client! hee hee!

Here is your teaser Robyn and Darcey! I hope you enjoy!

so sweet and under 5lbs!~Red_Deer_Newborn_Photographer

Deanna — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 16:09:05 +0000

I was super suprised to get the phone call from Cindy a week or so ago! Her sweet little bundle was not due until the first week in November! But Alas, she decided to enter the world a bit early! She entered the world just over 4lbs and needed to stay in the special care nursery for a few extra days! She was 8 days old when we arranged to do her newborn session, and what a doll she is!

I know I say this alot.. but I truly LOVE images with daddy’s and their baby girls.. they just speak VOLUMES to me! sigh…

And boy did she LOVE to be swaddled… I dont think I have ever had a baby love it quite so much, as soon as we would get her all wrapped she would just settle and snuggle in. Love this one also!

She was so settled that she even woke up for a while and gave me some sweet epressions. I love it when I get a full eye contact image from a newborn!

Then for fun, we thought we’d try a full family image.. this wonderful puppy was SO SO SO very excited to be part of the image.. she was sooo good.. smooches to her!

almost done!

I am slowly getting to the end of the rush of mini session sneak peeks! A huge thank you to everyone who has been patiently waiting!

Here is one more set to start your morning! isnt she stunning? I just knew her eyes would be perfect in black and white!

I so can’t wait to design this family’s Christmas card… with this shot on it! isnt that just sweet!?

gorgeous gorgeous little girl~Red_Deer_Photographer

As I am sitting here editing all my fall mini sessions, I have noticed one thing.. my clients are all wonderful! They all truly listened to the clothing suggestions, they all came with great attittudes and as a result I was able to capture some amazing portraits for them! When this little one stepped out of the truck I giggled. She is practicing to be Canada’s Next Top Model.. so watch out

4 boys!_Red_Deer_Photographer

Deanna — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 04:28:20 +0000

The next family up for a mini session had 4 boys!

I honestly cant even imagine! I have 2 and I think I will go insane before they are grown and moved out of the house! However, these 4 little men were amazingly well behaved, super fun and SUPER cute too!

I love this one… I cant really say why I do.. but i just do…and I am the artist so I can decide! LOL!

I hope everyone is enjoying their sneak peeks! More will come tomorrow!
