I first "met" Jody when I ordered an adorable handmade hat from her shop for a newborn session over a year ago. We never actually had the opportunity to meet in person, so I was SO happy when she contacted me about a family session this past December. When I asked Jody to tell me a bit about her family, one of the things she said was We're a blended family who love each other. For some reason that stuck with me during the entire shoot. What a simple yet powerful description, and one that proved to be very true. The love and happiness in this family was tangible, and there was so much laughter. The boys of the family, Nick and Christian, were visiting home during the holidays and you could tell that everyone was so glad to be together again. Gabrielle and Paige are two lucky little ladies for having such caring and fun big brothers. Hope you enjoy some of my favourites from our Winter session in Springbank Park! xo
