London Ontario Family Photographer | Snowy Family Session

I’ve always been a huge fan of Winter sessions. The snow makes for such a gorgeous backdrop, not to mention a giant reflector. I’ve been lucky enough to work with this beautiful family several times now, and it’s always a blast. I love all the candid moments throughout this session, from snuggles to giggles to snowball fights. Here are some favourites!

London Ontario Family Photographer | Winter Field & Greenhouse Session

I loved photographing this gorgeous family. I had the pleasure of documenting Brian and Kristy’s engagement and wedding and meeting their little guy when he was just a baby himself. Now he’s a big brother, and I got to meet his little sister who is every bit as sweet as he is. It was a cold, snowy day, but we managed some lovely field photos before heading to a nearby greenhouse for shelter, warmth, and another beautiful backdrop.

Best of 2018 Family Sessions | London Ontario Family Photographer

I wish you could have seen me putting this blog post together. First of all, it took a very long time. But most importantly, I smiled from ear to ear the entire time. So many beautiful families. So many favourites. So many. Some obvious ones that I previewed on social media and were stand-out favourites from the very beginning, and some that I had completely forgotten about, that for some reason didn’t really grab me during the editing process but made my heart sing during this yearly review.

As always, I feel the need to point out that my initial selection was so large it was ridiculous. In fact, one might argue that this selection is ridiculously lengthy. But I can only narrow them down so much, ya know? At the end of the day, whether a session appears in this compilation or not, I am so eternally grateful to each family that trusted me with capturing their memories - some for the first time in 2018, and some for the 8th time. It sounds so cliche, and we photographers like to throw around phrases like “I want to tell your story” and “capture your milestones” and “document your real life”… but it’s the truth. It’s why I do what I do.

Looking through all of these images made me so excited about the upcoming shooting season. For now though, I’m still reminiscing about the incredible year that was 2018. Here are some favourites!

London Ontario Family Photographer | Karen's Snowy Maternity Session

I met up with this adorable family on a snowy afternoon last year to document maternity photos and capture some sweet family memories before they became a family of 4. Here are some favourites! :)
