Owen – Wainwright Maternity & Newborn Photography

I’ve known little Owen’s daddy for many years through sports photography and I am so excited to now be photographing this sweet little one. If he’s anything like his dad, he is going to LOVE sports!

Cecilia and Brandon – Wainwright Maternity Photography

Cece and Brandon won a session from the Sparkle and Spurs Bridal show earlier this year! It worked out perfectly as a combined maternity and engagement session!

ALSO! Congratulations to this lovely family on the arrival of handsome little Archer! ❤

Thanks for stopping by!

Nanias Family – Wainwright Maternity Photography

Kongratulations Kelsey, Konrad & Kaycee on the announcement of sweet baby Kolt Nanias this afternoon!!!
(You guys see what I did there????)

It was an absolute wonderful and amazing day photographing the Nanias maternity session less than two weeks ago – and I am even more excited to meet Kolt later this week for his newborn photos!

Yes. They took me to see my all time favourite animal. Turns out I’m actually kind of afraid of them – but hey, Llama’s are rad.

Baby Lennon – Wainwright Newborn Photography

Miss Lennon is clearly going to have lots of love and protection from her big brother and sister! I’d say she’s in pretty good hands!

Sweetie slept through our entire session – I just love her! ❤

2015 – Year in Review

2015 was a spectacular year with lots of beautiful weddings, adorable newborns, fun families and couples, brilliant graduates and everything in between. Thank you so much to all of my wonderful clients – you’ve made my dreams as a photographer come true! Thank you also to my amazing family for supporting me and believing that I could get it all done! It was a year for the record book!

I’m so excited for what 2016 will bring! I think it is going to be another busy busy year with wedding season already over half booked up with so many amazing couples!

Here’s a look-in at each of the milestones I had the opportunity to photograph this year!

The E Family – Wainwright Family Portraits

I met up with the Elder family on a very busy Sunday of family sessions. I started out the day with this crew and there were so many giggles and laughes that I knew I was going to have a fun filled day of photos.

And we got to sneak in a couple maternity photos for Ashley and Shawn!

Kelley & Clint – Wainwright Maternity Portraits

On the morning of this ‘pre-baby’ photo session the weather was looking less than welcoming for this lovely couple. We decided to cross our fingers and see if the clouds (and the puddles) would clear before rescheduling. Clearly we made a perfect decision because it was a beautiful evening! Sending out lots of good vibes to this VERY SOON to be momma! I hope baby makes an arrival very soon for you. 🙂

Alyssa & Josh – Wainwright Maternity Portraits

This wonderful couple and I met out at the lake last week for a maternity session! Our first location was quite windy – so Josh saved the day by finding us a second location with the same ‘look’ we had been hoping for.

I’m more than looking forward to the next session with this family in July – When there will be THREE Millers attending the session!

Had a nice relaxing session with Kelsey and Konrad this weekend! I’m looking forward to meeting their sweet new addition in a few weeks!

I think little Miss C is pretty excited to meet her baby brother real soon!
