We spent a fun morning with the participants in the first session of Mommy Connections this past week! We are one of the sponsors of the program, and took ‘Mommy and Me’ photos for all of the participants. They’ll each receive a free 5×7 at the next session.

We’d like to thank Carol, the founder of Mommy Connections, for giving us the great opportunity to meet these amazing moms!

Mommy Connections is a great way for new moms to meet each other, educate themselves about motherhood, and learn about great opportunities available to moms. Registration for the March session is open now!

Here is a sneak peek at some of the moms.

It’s a small world: we met Brittany when we presented to the October Wedding Planners Institute of Canada class…

…and we are a HUGE fan of Ailynn and her husband Ken, who operate Whimsical Cakes!

Baby Casey

October 29, 2009

This little cutie was an absolute joy to photograph. He was really chilled out beneath the warmth of our studio lights!  In his short 6 weeks on this earth he’s captured so many hearts, especially his Mommy’s & Daddy’s.  And yes, they’re the reason why he’s so cute.

I’m so happy to introduce you to Mommy Connections. Due to H1N1, Alberta Health Services has suspended the new mom’s sessions, and have been having trouble finding spaces for current new moms to meet with other moms and attend sessions focused on their new babies.

A wonderful new mom that we know very well, Carol, established Mommy Connections for all new moms on the Southside. It’s a fabulous program and we’re very happy to support it. We’re going to offer free photography at the first session of each course!

The first class starts January 7th, 2010. More information can be found at www.mommyconnections.ca, or you can email mommyconnections@gmail.com

And, this is a great excuse for me to post a photo of Andrew – he’s an absolute joy and I was very lucky to join a new mom’s group with him when he was little. An update for all of our blog followers – he’s walking everywhere now, climbing all over the furniture, and talking like mad!

Why is baby Lucas so adorable? Just look at his parents! This beautiful boy arrived on Canada Day with much anticipation from the whole family. We are so happy to have a new nephew.

I love his hat – what a cute little man!

 

Normally we don’t put pictures of people’s bums on our website (they don’t tend to show up at many weddings!), but I love this little bum. I just want to squeeze it!  Baby bums, toes, and hands are so precious.

Our little neice Cali is 5 weeks old, and Brody is nearing two! Proud (and busy!) mom Krista visited our studio with her two little ones.

This wagon was Michael’s when he was a boy. He received two and this one was left in the box since 1977. We opened it up when we started Shandro Kids, and Brody is the first one to use it!

This is SO cute. I love these shirts that Krista found (‘Little Sister’ and ‘Big Brother’).

Mom and her girl.

Cali is such a beautiful baby girl.

I love baby back wrinkles. So sweet!

Baby Sophie

Sophie has arrived! Her beautiful mommy had maternity photos done before her arrival, and I returned to their house to celebrate the arrival of this sweet little bundle.

Baby Alexander

May 5, 2009

We travelled down to Calgary to welcome this new little guy into the world. He’s only been here for a week, but has captured so many hearts.

Alexander was incredibly alert throughout the shoot, he wanted to be a part of everything that was going on.

This is one of my favourite images to date. It’s an amazing and fleeting contrast – those little hands don’t stay little for long.

Baby Lyndon

May 2, 2009

We met this beautiful baby boy when he was only four days old.  We were told it should be easy to get photos of him sleeping, he sleeps all the time.  We lucked out and arrived to find a wide awake little Lyndon.  He finally conked out by the end of the session. Such a sweet little face, to make your heart melt.  Lyndon is the first of the Shandro Kids babies, and we’re looking forward to many more in the future.
