Melanie, Doug, & the Boys | Lethbridge Family Photos

Tanya — Fri, 03 Feb 2012 02:16:43 +0000

Melanie and Doug came in from the Crowsnest Pass with their adorable boys Landon and Pearson, and we had quite a stroke of luck… during the photos it was warm and beautiful outside, but just a few hours later a horrible wind storm hit and my area of town was nearly evacuated for risk of fires! I’m very glad they had time in the morning for photos!

The boys did great (thanks to a few breaks where they could frantically run around) and Pearson’s toy truck saved the day in a few photos. It’s great to see brothers get along so well so that I can get them to hug without any fighting :)

Some awesome natural posing :)
Baby GQ, maybe?

Piper the Dog | Helping Animals in Need

Here is another adorable dog who is available through the Alberta Animal Rescue Crew Society. Piper is a curious puppy and was fun to take photos of – she wasn’t quite as hyper as most puppies are, so instead of running around, the only difficulty was in getting her to stop sniffing things and pay attention to us :) And she was so cuddly!

Sharon and Chet got all of their grandchildren together for a family photo session just before Christmas. The kids were all adorable and I loved the color scheme they chose, which happened to work so well with our location! Even though two of the girls were sick at the time, they did great and held out long enough for the photos we needed :)

Barbara, Rachel & Pearce | Lethbridge Family Photos

Barbara and Pearce were in town visiting their daughter/sister Rachel, so they decided to get some family photos taken! The siblings were so giggly together and it was so easy to see the love between the three of them. Kudos to them for being brave enough to go out in the wind for a few photos!

Tausha, Conner, Kamryn & Nashton | Lethbridge Family Photos

Tausha and her children Conner, Kamryn, and Nashton met me at the beautiful Galt Museum for some family Christmas photos (and brought along an awesome star prop). They are such a cute family and I love how well she co-ordinated them, especially for their red/black/gray color scheme. The red shoes were worth all the pain they put her in :)

The Korver Family | Lethbridge Family Photos

The Korver family brought together their three generations for one large session and we lucked out with one last beautiful Saturday! I’m glad I brought Cam along to take candids while I was busy posing the groups, because the little cousins love the big cousins and everyone was in such good spirits :)
