The G Family: Family Photography, Toronto, Ontario

Had a fabulously fun session with Deborah and her son, Christopher, for my last family session of 2009.

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

We started out inside with a family photo including Butterscotch the cat (shot with the Canon 24–70 mm f2.8L lens):

Christopher is learning guitar, and mom wanted a shot of him playing (shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):

Love these two, shot in the back alley behind the house, such great ‘boy’ shots! (Shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):

Loving these moments between mom and son (both shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):

Love these shots of Butterscotch being taken for her daily walk in the back alley, so cute! (Shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):

I adore this shot of the whole family, going for a walk (shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):

Christopher was trying to be tricky, and hide from me for this shot, and it ended up being a fabulous relaxed portrait of him (shot with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens):

Thank you, Deborah and Christopher, for being such fun for my last family shoot of the year!

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Robin, Pete and their children, Jack and William.

We ended up fighting the weather a bit, but it ended up working out, the sun even made an appearance. We started the shoot in their backyard, where I captured William at play:

Caught this shot of Jack when we all took cover from the light rain that had started:

Thankfully it cleared up and we moved to the kids’ school yard, for more fun and photos. Love this shot of mom and her boys:

Dad joined in:

Loving this brotherly shot, so cute:

Made use of the sun that appeared for a backlit family photo:

Here’s one of just mom and dad that I captured:

Thank you Robin, Pete, Jack and William for the fun afternoon!

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Cole (who is just so adorable!) and his Mom and Dad. Dad had bought Mom a photography gift certificate for their recent anniversary—what a wonderful idea for an anniversary gift!

(Equipment Used: For those who are interested, I shot primarily with the Canon 85 f1.2L lens and the Canon 24–70 mm f2.8L lens.)

The shoot was scheduled for first thing on Saturday morning, which was very fortunate given the weather for the rest of the weekend! I think we broke a record for the amount of rain that weekend!

We decided to stick close to home and do the session at locations where they regularly spend time as a family, here’s the happy family:

This is the third of a series as Cole came running towards us, loving the backlight, the weather was perfect for the shoot!

Loving this shot of the family playing in the sand at their local park:

Look at those adorable curls! Mom actually held off getting Cole his first official hair cut so he would have those curls for the shoot, too cute!

They live in a very cool house in Cabbage Town, loving those front doors!

Cole and Mom share a moment on the front lawn:

Then we did some bathtub shots, what fun!

I just adore the freshly washed still wet hair look, and Cole also has amazing eyes too!

Looking forward to future photography sessions with Cole, can’t wait to capture the changes to come of this adorable young man!

This was a large family shoot! The four siblings are planning something special for their parent’s 50th in August.

I had a great time shooting the children on their own. First up was Helena, who helped me find the ‘light’ in the backyard. Love this shot, love the stray hair coming across her face, she has fabulous hair!
