Pretty in Purple | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

Remember Erin... http://stephaniechriquiphoto.blogspot.com/2012/02/red-red-lips-montreal-maternity.html
Well, she and her family were all here at the studio just 2 weeks before giving birth to this wonderful little girl.

I photographed their first born almost 2 years ago already and now I get to be apart of their memories once again! I feel so lucky to have captured the whole family and this time around, they even brought Grandma to help :)

I think purple is my new colour !! :) I love it ... What do you think ?!?

Remember Erin?!?! She came a really long time ago... when Coby was just 8 months young.
Well... she came back to the studio last week for baby number 2 on the way!! And this time, it's a girl.
I had so much fun, catching up and seeing Coby again. He grew so much since, I couldn't believe it.
Ah... how I love being able to photograph growing babies and be apart of their most treasured memories.

So, just to make sure this would be fair and because I personally know some of the people that took part in this little contest, there were many different ways I came up with about selecting at random who the winner would be. Finally, after much debate I decided with my friend that we would put all the names in a hat (old school style) and she would pull out a name !! :) lol

The name on the paper was......

Angel Gabriel | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

The title really speaks for itself....

I don't have much more to say than that this little boy was truly an angel. He was so calm and relaxed, he fell asleep so easily, it was incredible to be able to photograph him :)
I can't wait to see mom and dad's face when they see these and more...

United | Montreal Maternity Photographer | Photographe de Maternité à Montréal

A few weeks ago, when Ismary was just a few weeks away from giving birth, she and her family decided to come in for pictures and already I couldn't wait to meet their little angel!

Daniel, vous étiez tous vraiment incroyable et j'ai bien hâte de rencontrer le petit ange!! :)

Glowing | Montreal Maternity Photographer | Photographe de Maternité à Montréal

Stephane and Vanessa's first baby is on the way and after going to another photographer for maternity pictures, she decided they wanted something more artistic and natural and so she gave me a call which made me feel really special.

She was glowing and looked so beautiful, especially in the blue 'flowy' material. I think the second time around I can say this matched her expectations :)

Chieu contacted me a little last minute, to photograph her daughter Sofia recently and good thing I said yes because mom did not want regular pictures for her little princess... And so we photographed Sofia in the more artistic, creative and slightly complex poses. It was so much fun and now we have amazing pictures of an amazing princess to show for it :)
Did I mention Sofia is my favorite girls name... :) and she was asleep for almost the entire session!! What a doll she was.

Sweet Girl | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

This is officially my last blog post for 2011!

Already a year has gone by... And this one was definitely amazing , filled with amazing moments.
Meeting all these great families and in some cases their new additions made me learn so much, made me meet new friends and certainly made me love my job even more. I'm not sure how that's possible, but it's true ! :)
I am so thankful for all my 400 fans on Facebook and all those who follow me on my blog and twitter and who have let me document their journey, liked my work, comment and support me throughout my journey. Without all of you, I'd probably still be working my old and boring full time job. Seriously, I'm not even kidding.
I get to do what I love doing because of all the support I get from everyone of you, so thank you !!
Keep on sharing my page because 2012 will be an even better  and bigger year !!

... So here is to a sweet girl and oh, how adorable she was ! ...

Daddy's Little Boy | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

I had already met Emily and James a few times before they even got married, before I even started doing baby and maternity photography. So, they were referred by friends of a good friend of mine and contacted me when Edoardo was already a few weeks young. They both looked so happy to be parents and even brought Grandma along for the photo session.
It was a last minute booking, but it was all well worth it. :)

Little Man | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

Oh how I love to be able to document mom and dad's journey to becoming new parents !!
You must remember this couple from a few months ago. Well, I finally got to meet their little boy Justin! :)
He had the most adorable little cheeks and looked so much like his daddy, it was unreal.

Baby Pax | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

It's been so busy here at the studio! I've been meeting so many babies from 5 days to 6 weeks, that I haven't had much time to post anything lately. It is definitely the best part of my job so I certainly can't complain!

Paxton was so tiny and sweet when he came to the studio.  Plus mom and dad brought their dog Lucy that day to be apart of the photo session. Pax's future best friend! :) She sat quietly next to him, for a few minutes and I got to snap a few shots.

M-A + C | Montreal Event Photographer | Photographe d'évenement à Montréal

M-A and C came for a pre- engagement session recently and it was so nice out that day that we decided to do it outdoors. They told me all about how they met and how they had decided to go live in France together...  All I can think of was how cute and so in love, they were.
I had such a great time photographing them!!

I hope you guys like your sneak peek! :)

Tiny Wonders | Montreal Newborn Photographer | Photographe de Nouveaux- Né à Montréal

It was interesting to hear how both Genevieve and Sebastien found out about me...  and my photography.
Just a little something to peek your curiosity; Genevieve saw my work showcased at Apso-bibi on St-Laurent and Sebastien was referred a while back.
Both came to realize I was the same person.

Either way, I'm glad they came to the studio with their daughter and finally met after planning for this session a while back already. We had such a great time in the studio talking and photographing this tiny little girl. She was so beautiful with her long lashes, I can't wait to see pictures of her when she grows. :)
