I had the opportunity to photograph Hope when she was 10 months old, along with her Grandma who was visiting from Ontario (You can see that session here). So neat getting to meet people from all over, especially because the majority of my family lives in Ontario! Today Hope turns 1 and she had all her friends and family there to celebrate with her on the weekend. So nice to be able to celebrate with Hope and all her lovely family and friends, who love her to bits!
Cheung Family
Cindy contacted me a a few weeks ago looking to do a family session. She said she was referred to me by her friend Danelle, love referrals! You can see more of Danelle's session first session here , and stay tuned for her most recent session coming soon to the blog. We had to re-schedule the Cheung family session due to weather the first time and then decided to move locations to Historic Stewart Farm the second time. Our session day came and it was pouring, I mean POURING! And out of the vehicle came 3 bright, bubbly, energetic, friendly and smiley little girls. Cindy and her husband Chapmann were equally as excited and the rain sure wasn't going to stop them! I love those who tackle the rainy sessions, rain never bothers me! Safina, Gracie and Lucy are the sweetest, most polite and radiant little girls (well Safina is almost as tall as me....). I love how different each of the girls personalities are, you will be able to tell in the photos. You truly can tell that this family is such a loving, open and welcoming family. I am honored to have gotten to know them, and looking forward to following their life's stories along the way.
Bear Creek Family Session
Shayla contacted me a few weeks back wanting to get some family photos done as she just had her first child only 3 months ago. She found me on Instagram, neat!! (follow me @hannahcumminsphotography) When deciding on a location we realized that her and Steve live 2 blocks away from me, too funny! Amongst many rainy days we happened to luck out with some great weather. Not too rainy, not too cloudy, not too sunny, just perfect!
Laila Turns 1 | Cake Smash & Birthday Party
I am the luckiest girl ever. I get to see this little cutie Laila several times a year. She LOVES the camera and I am not complaining one bit! She turned one on March 11th and we all celebrated with her at the Hyde Creek Recreation Center in Port Coquitlam, BC. Laila had so much fun rumbling and tumbling with all her little friends and family while the rest of us "bigger kids" got to watch the action unfold. Laila was loving every minute of it! She was glued to the camera and giggled every time I took a picture.
Then it was action time! Laila was all about the cake, especially trying to pick it up all by herself. She sure loved the icing ;) As much as she LOVED the cake, she also LOVED the pizza. She insisted on walking around with a slice of pizza everywhere she went, too cute! With all the playing, eating, cake smashing, modeling etc... when present time came she was not too keen. But her friends and family know her so well, she was blessed with such lovely gifts.
It was such a pleasure to celebrate with you Laila and all your friends and family. Looking forward to all your birthdays to come!
