Cake smash birthday portraits

April 28, 2011

Or – to put it another way…happy 40th birthday to me!! Yup. In a few hours I’ll be 40 years old…hardly seems possible. Anyway, to celebrate this achievement (many thought I wouldn’t make it) I thought I’d have some fun.

While in Toronto recently to present a seminar on wedding photography at the NoBS Inferno, I asked my good friend, Kelly Scaccia, to help out with something dumb for my blog. She’s an amazing baby photographer so she was the perfect choice for a cake smash celebration! This was great fun to do, but I’d not recommend any adults doing this…least not sober! Even after a good shower I was still finding chocolate in my ears and nose hours later!!

Thanks to my awesome buddy James Hodgins for videoing the fun for me, and of course to Kelly for taking the pictures.

Deegan – Portland newborn photography

April 7, 2011

Meet 10 day old Deegan!! I photographed his Mum and Dad’s wedding a few year’s ago. While shooting another wedding late last summer, and guess came to see me and said he recoginzed me as I’d shot Corinne and Spencer’s wedding.

“True!”, says I…”how are they?”

“Expecting their 2nd child” says he….!

Not long after, Corinne was in touch to sort out a newborn shoot for Deegan.

Love these guys!

Portland Children’s photography – Finny!

February 18, 2011

Yes. 2011 is proving as bad as 2010 with my blog updates!! Sorry readers. Consider my butt well and truly spanked.

Here’s a nice update. This is Finn. Or as we call him, little Finn. That’s because Henry has two friends called Finn, Big Finn, and Little Finn!!

Sadly, Finny and his family recently moved to California, so I grabbed Finn and did some quick portraits for them before they left.

Henry will miss his best bud… :(
