Oh so cute!! | Montreal Children Photographer | Photographe de Portrait à Montréal

Oh these 2 boys.... so adorable yet so shy!!

This didn't stop the photo session from being so much fun though!

After much laughing, crying, screaming, running and jumping around, these two brothers remind me of the amazing bond between siblings and of course, why I love my job!!

I hope you're enjoying them Audrey. They grow so fast.

   

Fun at the Park | Montreal Children Photographer | Photographe pour enfant à Montréal

This summer's outdoor shoot, with Emily and Dan, was so much fun... especially the running around with Luke, who was full of energy.

Saving a life | Montreal Pet Photographer | Photographe pour Animaux à Montréal

What a way to start the New Year !!??

This little Boston Terrier, after 3 years of living in a safe home, was abandoned and left to be euthanized. Scared, nervous and confused, he arrived at our house on Friday the 7th of January, 2011. It only took him a few hours to settle in to his foster home and instantly got along with his new friends, Bugger and Jazz. He has all of his vaccines and he is even neutered. He is cuddly, knows most of the basic commands such as how to sit, lie down, give paw... and best of all, he enjoys watching T.V !! He has a great temperament, plays well and isn't possessive with his toys or food. I don't know how anyone can let go of such a cute and well behaved dog, but we're here to focus on finding him a forever home, so please forward his picture and info to everyone you know...

Thank you in advance for your help!

His adoption fee is only about 400 $, through Eleven Eleven Rescue, which you can find on Facebook for more info:

Wedding | Montreal Portrait Photographer | Photographe de Mariage à Montréal

Joni, an old school friend, asked me to assist her to photograph her sister's wedding. We worked on many many projects together in and out of school, including weddings, and so I accepted. We make a great team, and I can't wait to show you more pictures from all the different photo shoots we've worked on together.
These are just a few shots from the wedding.

MOMO | Montreal Pet Photographer | Photographe pour Animaux à Montréal

Remember Momo, our foster dog from 2010.
I am proud to say we found him a home, after he stayed with us for about a month. It was hard to let him go, especially because he was soo cute! But ... good news ... he is in a good family now in Ontario with another Boston Terrier, a female, and they get along great! :)
We'll definitely be fostering other dogs in need this year through different rescues such as Paws for Life, the Montreal SPCA, Eleven Eleven Rescue and many more ... and of course I'll post pictures to up their chances of finding a forever home !!

Fit 4 Life | Montreal Portrait Photographer | Photographe de portrait à Montréal

I had a bit of time this holiday / new year, and decided to go through some older photographs I didn't have a chance to share on my blog.  Of course looking at these, all I could think of is what I could have done differently, or even better. This is what we do, us artists, we constantly get inspired with everything surrounding us, and re-think about past work and try and make it better. As the saying goes: "Practice makes better".
Chris trained for her competition, of course wanted memories of what she had achieved and contacted me for an outdoor photo session, before the big day. I loved working with her so much that I decided to tell her to come to the studio for Part 2. The in studio pics were taken after her competition, and a few slices of
pizza! (jk!!) I would love to work with you again, Chris. You are a great model but most of all an inspiration to everyone who can't get their butts to a gym!! :)

PS:  Chris won a few trophies and is still working hard for her next competitions.

Holiday Pets | Montreal Pet Photographer | Photographe pour Animaux à Montréal

Imagine being a pet lover and spending an entire day with dogs of different breeds.

Imagine loving the holiday season and sharing good laughs with Santa and his elf in your favorite pet store. 

Imagine being able to promote and raise money for a cause you truly believe in.

Okay, now imagine having all that under the same roof and being able to do what you love at the same time. 

Well... that's what I did last weekend! and I don't mean I imagined all of it. 

I created a photo- booth for dogs and their owners at Bark & Fitz, for a mini photo session with Santa, to raise money for the Montreal SPCA. 

I am now sharing these pictures to thank everyone that was able to make it to the event and donate. We raised $ 515 in just a few hours. So thank you!

  

 

Of course Bugger & Jazz came by!! :)
