Miles, 7 Days Old

November 22, 2019

This little guy came in to the world 3 days before we had a maternity session scheduled. Even though mama was a little disappointed about the maternity photos, we laughed about his fast early arrival. Clearly he was eager to meet his siblings, who I also had the privilege of photographing a couple years prior which you can see from the canvases hanging on the wall in the first picture, or by going back in the blog archives here.
Big brother is clearly going to be taking on the role as family photographer so he’ll be documenting his family’s day to day life, while sister cuddles her new baby brother at every chance she gets. We ended our lifestyle portrait session with some studio-like newborn poses. We put some cute hats on him and all melted as we watched him sleep so peacefully. Scroll down to see some of my favourite shots from this session.

Astrid and Stormfly Take Flight at Dusk

November 1, 2019

How to Train Your Dragon is probably our longest running obsession that started almost 8 years ago! Creating their costumes this year was not the easiest! But a whole lot of glue gun action with some minor sewing along with spray painting, and voila! We took a few photos of this fierce duo before the sun set, but of course Toothless saw and he couldn’t resist sneaking up on us for a sweet photobomb!

At Dusk they took flight! Astrid and Stormfly wouldn’t let the rain get in their way of candy collecting! The rain came down very hard at times but they just embraced it and continued on. We started our adventure with lots of friends but the longer Astrid and Stormfly trekked the more friends they would lose to the downpour. These two have weathered many storms together. so as tempting as the hot apple cider and hot chocolate was, they motored on. They were determind. By the time all the candy was collected the rain finally stopped. So they enjoyed their flight home with mouths full of candy.
Once again, our incredible neighbourhood made this holiday super rad!! So many of you wonderful neighbours also embraced the elements and turned what could have been a gloomy Halloween in to yet another epic year! Thank you! Now scroll down to see their adventure!

Autumn Colours Are Fast Approaching

September 18, 2019

I am not sure why, but summer seemed to fly by this year faster than usual! I actually can’t believe I am posting about Autumn sessions right now! But there’s no denying the leaves are starting to change and my Autumn calendar is booking up fast! I absolutely love this time of year! The beauty of this season is jaw dropping and doesn’t last long! Peak season for colourful leaves is from about mid October until the 2nd week of November, and in that time I have week days available but only a couple weekend spots left!

I will be sending out the Autumn and Winter newsletter next week and there will be a very special offer in there for all my subscribers and an extra special offer for my VIP’s (my past and present clients). Sign up to receive that newsletter by adding your name here: https://www.heatherbays.com/my-newsletter! Then scroll down to see some favourite photos from a few family sessions last year!
