THIS. GIRL. NAILED. HER. SESSION. I know I say that every time, but she’s a literal goddess.
S told me she had found me on Instagram a few years back but she wasn’t pregnant and so she followed me, and waited until the day she would be. And I am so happy she did. Her and her little family were such a delight to work with.
As with my other mountain maternity work, S had her makeup and hair done by Sarah with S.Kay Makeup Artistry in Calgary. We came to meet in Banff and it was actually quite cloudy, a little windy, but not too bad. This session took place in early June.
Before her session was to take place, S asked if we could do a gender reveal for her family. She hadn’t told any of her family what they were having and she had the most adorable idea, using coloured flower petals! Of course many of us have heard about some gender reveal ideas that have been scary, or down right dangerous and so I am very careful what I will or won’t do - I said we can absolutely do this but we would have to pick up all the petals after the fact (they were artificial) because I wanted to guarantee that whatever we did, we left no trace on Mother Earth. So after this next photo, we did a real quick 100 petal pick-up hahah!)
SUCH A CUTE IDEA!
Then we moved onto just S and spoiling her with gorgeous images, in this gorgeous custom made gown by a lovely lady who lives in Calgary. Supporting local in every way I can is my JAM. This boho gown was made just for my clients and I love it.
Sarah’s work on S’s hair and makeup makes me swoon to this day <3 That red lip though!
Yep, I for sure was IN the lake to get this shot. It was absolutely worth it. And this is why I bring spare pants to sessions. Can’t do this in winter!
Cannot wait to post this lovely human’s newborn photos of her sweet baby girl!
