Spring Colors!


I love the colors of spring! The flowering plum trees are my absolute favorite. I wish the blossoms stayed all year but unfortunately they only ever give us a couple of weeks. These trees made a perfect setting for my session last night with Anna. Pink petals are a compliment to any little girl.

Enjoy,
Jill

New Background!


Here is a shot of Brittany with the new background that we are loving so much!! Its not quite finished yet but we could not resist the opportunity to test it. It inspires so many new ideas.

Enjoy, Jill

PS. I just returned from the Professional Photographers of Canada national convention a couple of days ago. It was a great time. I caught up with old friends and made many new ones. The speakers I attended were inspiring and full of fantastic advice on marketing and shooting. It is a great feeling to return from these conventions with an arsenal of new tricks up my sleeve. I can't wait to share them over the next few sessions.

Babies are a great subject to photograph. So small and full of great expressions. Here are a few of my favorite baby shots from about the last month or so. Some really great little faces.
