Miya, sound asleep for daddy
I was over to visit Amrita, Brett and Miya on Monday and of course to take a few pictures. Miya was a sleep when I first arrived and Brett was holding her in his lap. She had just eaten and was dozing peacefully. It was a wonderful afternoon and I can hardly wait to get through the photos that were taken.
Quiet moment with Zak.
Baby Addilyn
I have hit a wonderful time in my life, my children are all grown up and they are off enjoying their lives. Yes they visit, and we do things together, but I don’t have the day-to-day worries and work that I had as a parent of young children. Their friends, have also grown up, and this is where it gets good, they are getting married and having babies of their own.
Addilyn is part of that next generation. Spending time and taking photo of this beautiful little baby gave me a chance to have a visit with Cameron and Jessilyn, who I haven’t seen in quite some time. I am new to photographing babies, and it seems to take longer than it should. Babies need changing, and feeding, and kept warm, but not too warm, and they are not always wanting to laying just the way we want them, but I do my best. All this extra time give us a chance to chat.
Thanks Cameron and Jessilyn for your time, it was wonderful, almost as good as the photos! more to come.

Baby Zak, 9 months old
Kim and Baby Zak were over for photos on Friday, it was wonderful to have a visit and to see how much Zak has changed since the last time we were together, about 3 months ago. The time flies by, and babies change so much. He is teething, but according to Kim not having too much trouble with that. I can see that it won’t be long before he is walking, and then running, they change so fast during their first year.
I am looking forward to seeing them again soon.
Zakary at Riverside Park, September 3, 2012
Six month old, Zakary at Riverside Park, it is amazing how fast the time goes by when I am with children, it is so much fun watching them.

Yesterday was a great day, while it was a little windy, the sun was shining and I had a chance to visit with Kim and her little man Zak who is now 6 months old. He is a cutie. His little red T-shirt even proclaimed “local cutie” so appropriate. It is amazing to me how much babies change in the first year. Checking back through the blog you can see just how much he has grown.
We spent a couple of hours sitting in the grass, visiting while making funny noises all in an effort to get Zakary to look at us and smile! He was quite fasciated by the grass, less so by us! I don’t know about him, but I had so much fun I haven’t stopped smiling, and I am already looking forward to next time.
Baby Zak, #1 Calgary Flames Fan
Zak, #1 Calgary Flames Fan! I know there are a lot of really great Calgary Flames Fans out there but Zak, has been wearing a flames jersey since he was about 2 days old, and I am guessing he has been to more games than I have. I owe Kim, Jon and Zak a big apology, I have been slow on getting their images processed. That will be rectified this weekend. My goal this week is to get all caught up on the photos, there is much to do!
Zak has the cutest face, I smile the whole time while working on his photos, I may have to print and post one above my computer, having his smiling face about the monitor cheering me on would be a big help.
Baby Zak, 3 month’s old, Calgary Portraits
Baby Zak was over at the beginning of July for photo, and he was almost holding himself up. He has so much personality in his face, and expressions, I found myself watching, and giggling, and forgetting to take pictures!
I had a great visit with Kim, Jon, and Zak last friday and I can’t believe the week has gone by so fast. I have been busy with so many things I have hardly had time to post to my blog. I feel like Zak looks! This photo was taken near the end of our visit; he needed a break and he had just eaten, I am sure just wanted a nap!
Zak had been so very patient as we moved him from place to place, cooed at him, dressed and undressed him, made faces, and shook noise makers at him! At least it looks like he found a very comfortable place to put his head.
I hope you had had a great week, the weekend is better and you find a comfortable place to put your head at the end of the day.
