A Christmas Princess

6 months old - probably one of my favourite ages!
This little Princess was SO adorable in her Christmas Dress! Her fascination with the big ornaments and gifts was absolutely priceless!  She made silly faces (which Mom exclaimed "OH! That's SO her!" when I caught it) and sweet sincere faces.  She had us laughing as she slouched and relaxed in the baskets, and nearly tipped them from leaning back (Baby Safety: Mom's hands were right there to stop it from tipping!)
For a Mini Session, it was jam packed with variety!

Vintage Maternity - Steinbach Photographer

This Mama taught me something during her session, something I didn't even realize I was saying wrong.  If something is "Retro" it means it's from the 1980s.  If something is "Vintage" it's from the 50's or 60's.  If something is "Antique", it means it's over 100 years old.
Did you know that?

So my gut reaction is to call this a "retro themed" maternity session (which I think I did on Facebook - oops!) it's actually "VINTAGE".

And, while I'm used to working my creative muscle is coming up with original photos - recreating posts this Mom-to-be (for the 3rd time) brought in was a fun little deviation from the norm.

Steinbach Family Photographer - Hudson turns ONE!

Mr. Hudson came to see me for his first birthday photos ON his actual birthday!  How special is that?!  I simply loved photographing this little guy, he is just too cute!
