Little Man, Matteo

August 5, 2009

I’ve been a busy little bunny in Calgary over the last few days! Photoshoots, editing, helping friends move, visiting family, preparing for Saturday’s wedding, the list goes on! I woke up particularily early this morning because I really wanted to blog another session, and I really MUST show you my little buddy Matteo. Matteo was born on July 24th, 2009 at approximately 9:52am, weighing in at a GARGANTUAN 9lbs 5oz!! Oh, and his mommy and daddy? None other than the absolutely amazing Rob and Courtney! Congratulations guys! I have to say that for a family as amazing and loving as yours, I’m glad there’s a new little addition to keep it growing :)

Let us Begin.


This photo was first set up just for fun, but after looking at it a few times I am a firm believer that Matteo could already kick my hiney at Golf!


This made me giggle out loud! BYOB? Classic!


Yup, I want to eat him all up. Who’s with me?






Happy Mommy! :)



My absolute Favorite Shot!



This one’s for Rob aka “Daddy” :)


Big Yawn!


Melts your heart!

Sarah: Portraits

April 17, 2009

Sarah and I met a few years ago when I was living in Calgary. She and her boyfriend Ray lived a block away from me just north of downtown and used to always bug me about owning a PT Cruiser (yes I had a PT Cruiser… it was Cranberry and rocked my socks.). I was totally surprised when I found out a month or so ago that she and Ray had recently moved out to Vancouver! 

Sarah is just one of those rare people that you just can’t help but smile when you see her. She is an amazing actress and totally knows how to work the camera. Keep your eyes peeled for this one! She’s going places! :)

Saturday was THE perfect day for a photo-shoot here in White Rock! (Good thing Maureen and Ravi came to the rescue!) :)  Maureen had found my blog through a friend of hers (The beautiful Manna from the beautiful Manna & Sukh Engagement Session), and contacted me to find out more information on getting a photo-shoot for her and her husband Ravi. We have been emailing back and forth for quite a while, waiting for the perfect weather etc, and finally after WEEKS, we dubbed this past Saturday as the chosen day… and WOW… good thing we waited! How amazing was the weather?! VERY amazing! Maureen told me that her and Ravi had not had any professional photos taken of them since their wedding! Well guys, I truly hope you (and your puppy “Teddy”) enjoy the photos!

I finally did it! I got a new blog! Slightly bigger photos, slightly cleaner…basically the same thing as the old blog, but now it smells a bit newer. :P

Be sure to update your Google Readers and your RSS’s and your “Internets” (thanks to George W. for THAT little gem!).

I’m really happy with the new blog and I want to give a huge shout-out to the gang at Tofurious for doing such a fantastic job! I had a chance to meet them at WPPI in February and they are Awesome to the power of 10!

To celebrate the Grand Opening of the new blog, I am proud to show these photos of my good friend Randy. He is really all that, and a bag of chips. Seriously, take a look. This really is how he rolls…ALL the time. :) Hope you like the photos!

Michael
