The Wickenberg Family • Confederation Park

I have been trying to get out and take fall pictures of this family for years. For one reason or another, it's never worked out. Our schedules have simply clashed, and before you know it, there is snow on the ground.  However, it would seem this year, that all the stars aligned. We set a date, we met, we took pictures. The weather was amazing, the one downside was the terrible wind. It didn't deter us, we simply took photos in between wind gusts. 

You guys were awesome, thanks for letting me boss you around.

The Paradis Family • Pearce Estate Park

Two weeks ago today, I was supposed to meet up with this sweet family. You might remember that two Saturdays ago the weather went from awesome to dreadful. It was rainy, cold and the wind... It was coming straight down from the Arctic. So, we rescheduled our photo shoot. And thank goodness we did, because we couldn't have had better conditions.

I haven't had a lot of opportunities to take photos of families with young kids, it's definitely a bit trickier. And, I'm pretty sure their little guy caught onto my tricks... 'What's on my head?', 'Where's the doggie?', 'Guess what I have in my bag?' to get him to look in my direction. All the tricks worked though, because I think there are some great photos.

Here are a few of my favourites:
