T<\/span>his was the third year in a row that I met up with this fun family for a “day in the life” candid documentary photo session. The first two<\/a> were so much fun <\/a>that they ended up being among my favourites of the year, and I was worried that we couldn’t possibly have as much fun for the third year in a row.<\/p>\n

I needn’t have worried.<\/p>\n

It was a bright, sunny late spring morning, and we had a lovely time exploring the historic locks at Long Island on the Rideau Canal. <\/p>\n

I love the setting for the wide variety of backgrounds – grassy hills with trees, giant stone locks with wooden doors and bridges to clamber across, concrete steps and big wooden docks in the open sunshine. It’s a photographer’s paradise!<\/p>\n

Of course, it certainly helps that this family is content to just hang out and have fun while I follow them around with my camera. And it also helps that the kids (and of course, the parents!) are super adorable and easy going.<\/p>\n

I really love this quiet little moment between mom and daughter. My favourite photos from a session are always the ones I wish I had of me and my kids, and this is definitely a keeper. No posing, no looking at the camera, so stress – just mom and daughter, being together.<\/p>\n

And how can you not love a kid who spontaneously dances like this? <\/p>\n

Seriously? Adorable.<\/p>\n

Documentary-style candid family photography sessions are my favourites. Invite me to come along on your family’s favourite summertime adventures: a day at the beach, a picnic at the park, family game night or a trip to the farm. If you love to do it, you should preserve those memories – I promise that those are the photos you’ll treasure in years to come, when you see your family’s quirky personalities caught forever. <\/p>\n

I’m now booking for late summer and autumn sessions, and spaces are limited, so get in touch <\/a>today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
