Getting to Know Mrs. Markle

Tuesday, July 22, 2014

I thought it would be fun to do a little interview with someone, about their ideas and photography ideas.  What images they remember and feature them on my blog.

I've known Amy, for just over four years now and have always admired how she always looks so put together in all her pictures she posts.  So it's great to hear her thoughts on pictures she has taken and also pictures that have been taken of her and her family.  As my blog guest, I  asked Amy fifteen different questions about photography.

E:  Have you ever taken a picture of food?  If so, what was it and why did you take it?A: I took at picture if my yummy poutine and drink at south street burger. It was to tease my pregnant sister

E: Have you ever taken a picture of someone famous?  If yes, who and do you still have the picture?
A: I took a picture of Jeff Daniels and yes I have the picture still

E: What was the first picture you ever took, using your current cell phone and do you still have the picture saved on the phone?

A: I am not sure exactly what picture I took but I know it was one if my daughter and yes I would still have it. 

E: Have you ever hired a photographer in the past?  Explain why you picked that person.

A: Yes. I hired a photographer to do my maternity pictures and pictures of my kids. I picked this photographer for their prices.

E: If you have hired a photographer previously, what was one thing that stood out to you when they were shooting?
A: No clue 


E: You wouldn't ever wanted to be photographed doing?
A: Eating or sleeping

E: You wouldn't be caught dead in what kind of picture?
A: Nude

E: What is one picture that sticks out in your mind as the best photograph you have ever taken?  What type of camera did you use?

A: A pic of my niece and nephew sitting in a field of dandelions. I used my canon cool shot (I think that is what it is called)

E: The last family picture you have taken was?  What would you change about it?
A: Last family pic was one of my maternity pictures. I wouldn't change a thing


E: Take a picture of what is currently in your purse or pockets and then describe it to me and include it with your response.
A: Full of diapers, Kleenex, my wallet and soothers. Lol. I don't know how to attach a pic. Lol

E: Have you ever had your picture taken by higher authority?  If so, did you have a copy of your mug shot?
A: No

E: When you see people taking tourist pictures, what is something that stands out to you?  Is it a positive or a negative?

A: How many random people will be on their pic. Or how they hold up a crowd just so they can get a perfect picture 

E: The last picture you had printed was?

A: Pictures of my kids

E: If you could describe the perfect family photo, what would it be like?

A: Outside on a beautiful summer day in a natural pose 

E: If you could have your photo taken with just one person, alive, dead or even famous, who would it be and why?

A: My grandpa. Because he isn't with us anymore, and it would be a great keepsake and memory

Thank you for participating in my mini interview Amy.  On behalf of Corcoran Photography, I would like to offer you a free mini session, to be able to capture your 'perfect family photo,' in a 'natural pose.'

Please contact me directly to arrange this.

Thing 1 & Thing 2

Monday, July 21, 2014

I had the pleasure of working with Carolina & Jerry at the beginning of July, for their maternity photo session.  They are having TWIN BOYS.  Oh Boy, I say;)

I am always so HAPPY when my maternity clients choose a natural outdoor setting - - and I love the beach as it truly does represent summer.  I was even more excited when they showed up and were game for anything!  We hit it off from the start and they are just the cutest soon-to-be-parents!  Here are some sneak peak pictures that I promised to post for Carolina.  I can't post all of them as I have included the names of the boys in a lot of the pictures and have been sworn to secrecy.  But, once Carolina and Jerry see the additional photos, I am sure they will love them!  I have also included a little video too;)

Ayla Turns One

Tuesday, July 01, 2014

If you’ve followed me on Instagram or Facebook, you may have seen me bragging about “my” baby niece, Ayla. I’ve known Ayla since she was in her mom’s growing belly, and I’ve been photographing her for just as long. 

Jen (Jennie), Ayla's mom, should be an owner of an event planning firm.  Ayla has become my non-biological niece, and I’m pretty sure that everyone that meets this smiling, silly baby girl feels exactly the same!  

Ayla is a baby plan client.  Her older brother Cameron, has taken on the role too, with Corcoran Photography.  I have been fortunate, to see the two of them many times throughout their childhood, years.  Such a cool thing!  I have been able to photograph their gorgeous mama's maternity photos too.  

Jennie, is a Pinterest and Etsy fanatic – and hand-designed every detail from Ayla's party, just like she did for her son, Cameron, the last five years!
There were so many details for Ayla’s 1st birthday party!! To start with we were greeted at the door by Cameron himself, he was celebrating his sixth birthday the same day too.  Once you stepped inside you were delighted to see a beautiful colour scheme of purples and blues. 

To start with, there were black cutouts that hung on the wall and kitchen window in the Tully's house, that were covered in either purple or blue, for Alya and Cameron's birthday, swagged with handmade photos of each of them and adorned with a number for either the years or months, for each child.

Handmade cake tower/server with three tiers and different sizes, was the backdrop to the dessert table, which was also lined with purple and blue ribbon. On each tier, were homemade cupcakes, by Jennie's sister Pam, whom might I add, is an amazing baker and Pinterest lover too!

The dessert table was also accompanied by three different flavours of squares, homemade cookies, and a massive tray of fruit and watermelon too.  No one left hungry from this party!

Jennie, also added heart felt touches around their house. Including a collage of Ayla's pictures from each month of her first year. There was also a handmade photograph, with a pop out frame including three purple balloons that Ayla was holding from her hand. 

“No one else will ever know the strength of my LOVE for you! After all you're one of the few, who know what my heart sounds like from the inside.” 

I have posted just a few little photos from Ayla's One Year Birthday Session.  

Enjoy!!
