Isla | Child Photographer, Langely BC | Shannon Stevenson

I am so excited to re-introduce little Isla….we first got a sneak peek of her during Mom’s maternity session with Jillian a year ago HERE and then again within her first few days of life for her Newborn Session with Jillian  HERE. It is just so awesome that we get to watch these families grown year after year!

Isla came all decked out in her skinny jeans from NEXT..one of my favorite shops in the UK to buy kids clothes! Every time I go back to England I have to take an extra suitcase just for kids stuff from NEXT!…. and check out her little shoes….sigh….what a doll.

Moments | Family Photographer, South Surrey BC | Shannon Stevenson

Being a family photographer is an amazing thing but any family or child photographer will tell you that running a photography business is no easy task. There are many things other than taking pictures that we must do to keep our business a float…..I won’t bore you with those details, but all of you who run small businesses yourselves know what I mean. We are not able to shut the door and leave work at work…we live, eat and breath our careers all the while striving to keep balance in our personal lives. Sometimes all this can be overwhelming, it can get you down….but then you experience a moment, a moment that is so pure it takes your breath away, it makes you pause and reminds you why you do what you do. Those moments happen when families show up with open hearts and feel the freedom to be themselves. In return  we can share the magic that we were so lucky to witness on that day in the form of a photograph, proof that there is love within all of us, a love that is shared with those that are closest to us. Those moments look a little something like this:

Hayden | Newborn Photography, Richmond BC | Shannon Stevenson

Our baby whisperer Jillian has been a bit under the weather this week. :( Being child photographers our first concern is always the health and safety of the children we work with, so she asked me if I wouldn’t mind doing this session for her as little Hayden was already 16 days old and getting bigger and stronger every day. I haven’t done a newborn session in a very long time but she assured me I would do fine and supplied me with blankets and hats and other goodies for the session. I have the best business partner ever….and am glad to hear she is on the mend.

Hayden’s Mom happens to be a friend of a friend of mine and it was so fun to catch up! The last time we saw each other was 4 years ago…we were both bridesmaids in our friend Amy’s wedding, but I will spare you those pictures because this baby is just too cute and we all know that you would rather look at him!

Cinderella Playdate | babycheeks | Lucy Lime

Jillian and I had so much fun at babycheeks on January 31st for the Cinderella play-date! I don’t think I have ever, in my whole life, been in a room filled with so much magic. I know  that on the day, we all believed….even us adults. We laughed, we cried, and we were honored to be part of such a magical day that was so special for so many little ones. We captured some great images and can’t wait to share them with you! We are working hard to get them ready for viewing so if you were part of the day please follow here on the Lucy Lime blog or on the babycheeks blog for information on how to view them…coming soon!!

Secret wishes…

Jillians little one made it out to the party as well! Although she may not 100% believe in the big fat guy in the red suit anymore,  I sure can tell you that she believes 100% in fairy tales…

*love you Ash!
