Here are some shots from my most recent family photography session.

(See “My Camera Equipment” in footer section for links/more information on camera equipment used.)

I couldn’t resist capturing some shots of Dad reading with his youngest daughter, shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens:

After everyone was ready we headed out to a local park, love this shot of the girls up in a tree, shot with the Canon 24–70 mm f2.8L lens:

Dad and youngest daughter, loving the moment and the bokeh in the background, shot at f3.2 with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens:

The whole family:

Loving the dramatic lighting, shot at f1.2 with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens:

Thank you to the V family for a fun summer afternoon!

Baptism: Toronto Event Photography

Filed under: Children,Family Photography,Photography Session,Toronto Event Photography — Holly @ 6:40 pm

Last Sunday I had the pleasure of photographing my first Baptism. The sweetest little girl, nicknamed “Blueberry”, with big blue eyes and a wonderful happy personality! She reminded me of my daughter!

I started with some photos of the Baptism gown:

Here is little ‘Blueberry’, isn’t she adorable?

She was a happy camper while being dressed in her gown:

Couldn’t resist this photo as she traveled downstairs to greet the guests:

Blue, blue eyes!

Love this moment that mom, dad and daughter share:

The Church where the ceremony was held was beautiful:

Mom and daughter on their way in:

The big event:

Friends and family gather around after:

Mom and daughter share a moment:

Hanging out with one of her grandmas:

Sharing a moment with her dad:

And loved this moment with family friends:

Before I departed, a photo of the cake and flowers:

Thank you to Blueberry’s parents for giving me the honour of photographing this special day!

Filed under: Children,Family Photography,Photography Session — Holly @ 8:48 pm

I had a wonderful family session with the T Family this past weekend! So hard to limit my favs to only these!

We started off in their backyard:

Absolutely ADORE this one!

Sophie has a fabulous bedroom, with a really cool canopy over her bed, so we took just a few photos, this is a fav:

Then we headed out to the local ice cream shoppe, here’s one of Sophie and her Dad:

One of my favourite places for photos in our hood, under a railway bridge:

Then Mom and Dad took a turn:

Love the bokeh in this image (shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):

Sophie in the shoppe with her ice cream cone:

Love the light breeze blowing her hair:

Fun wide-angle, on an angle (shot with the Canon 24–70 mm f2.8L lens):

Making our way home:

Thank you for the fun afternoon T Family! So glad the rain held off for our shoot! 🙂

The W Family: Family Photography, Toronto, Ontario

Filed under: Children,Family Photography — Holly @ 3:51 pm

Meet the wonderful W Family! I honestly don’t know how I luck out with such nice clients and well behaved sweet kids!

Here’s a shot of the youngest, Harrison, at the piano, I just LOVE this shot! He’s such a cutie!

Also love this candid I caught of the four kids together, playing thumb wars and rock, paper, scissors! You can see that the younger ones just love their older siblings!

Young Jacob, look at those beautiful blue eyes!

Harrison, such a character he is!

Adore this moment between mom and Jacob, so sweet!

Mom and Harrison just came down the slide in the backyard together, I just adore this shot also! Love the moment that I caught.

Can’t tell that Kyle and Kristen are brother and sister, eh? 😉 They both have the most amazing eyes!

Dad and Jacob in the kitchen, so sweet:

Just look at those cool eyes!

Ok, does this not look like a family in an advert? So cute and so perfect! I just adore the stance of Harrison and Jacob in the front, and Jack (the sweet, sweet dog!) is perfectly posed as well!

Thank you so much Patricia and Wayne! It was wonderful to meet you and your children!

The P, M & Y Family: Family Photography, Toronto, Ontario

Filed under: Children,Family Photography — Holly @ 3:27 pm

This was another large (extended family) shoot, and what a wonderfully nice family!

Justine, on the left below, found me online and the family hired me to photograph kids, parents and grandparents.

Here is Chloe, with her mom and grandmother, love this shot of the three generations!:

Chloe and her brother Kelly, LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this moment!

Kelly is going to be a heartbreaker when he grows up! Beautiful boy! Such a sparkle in his eyes!

Love this moment caught between mother and daughter:

This is Justine’s beautiful sister, Vanessa with her son Max in the background:

Love the soulful look Max is giving the camera, brother Noah is in the background:

How could I resist showing you a close-up of Noah and his beautiful eyes? I couldn’t!

Love this moment between Vanessa’s daughter, Julie, with her mom and dad:

Even though Julie is not terribly happy in this shot, I still love it! Love the bracelets, the shiny black boots, and the look that is so much a three year old!

There were SO many shots that I could have shared from this session, it was so hard to pick which ones to post! But these are definitely some of my favourites. Thank you for finding me online Justine! It was so wonderful to meet and photograph you and your family!
