With only a few weeks until their due date, I had a maternity session with Jesse and Kevin at Elk Lake. The evening started out sunny and turned into a full-out angry rain storm as I drove back into the city. Their baby girl took her time arriving (making a pretty late appearance) but was definitely worth the wait. Congratulations again!

Jesse + Kevin – Maternity Session
I had a session yesterday evening with local photographer Jesse Holland and her husband Kevin, just a few weeks away from the delivery of their first baby. Figured I’d best get a couple up now in case she arrives before I’m back from shooting a wedding in Toronto this week. A couple now, more down the road.
Waiting for Baby – Sooke BC Maternity Session
I photographed Rowan and Steve’s wedding back in 2007. They’re expecting their first baby at the end of the month so I made a trip out to Sooke for their maternity session. We started the shoot in the nursery before making our way to the beach where Rowan was climbing logs and maneuvering the terrain like a trooper! I’m looking forward to meeting their new addition in a few weeks during their newborn session.
Waiting for Gretchen – Nova Scotia Maternity Photography

Today it was grey in Victoria, but I edited this set of images from Nova Scotia in August and it felt like summer all over again. This was my last visit with my best friend Jill before she gave birth to her awesome daughter Gretchen. I wanted to take some maternity photos for her, showing Jill as I know her. Jill is fun, she laughs, she loves her family and dogs, and she loves being at her cottage. This hot August day, we drove to the cottage to hang out with her family and swim. Jill didn’t know I was going to take her photo, I sort of sprung it upon her. She started killing herself laughing because she was in her bathing suit for the photos with her hair messy from the salt water, and just a few weeks away from having her baby. All I could think of was while we were university roommates at Mount Allison, how she said she loved the smell of sunshine on your skin after a day at the beach. To me, the images sum up Jill and Kris, and now they’re one person better with Gretchen. Love these guys.
