Meredith, Age: 10

Meredith and her family are some of my favourite and most rewarding clients.  Meredith is strong, beautiful, charming and has a gorgeous smile. She also has cerebral palsy as a result of a lack of oxygen at birth.  Her mom, Julie Keon, writes a blog about their journey at www.whatiwouldtellyou.com and she is writing a book.

I've photographed Meredith twice before: when she was five and when she was eight.

The love in this family is so very strong.

Olivia & family

Olivia is the tiniest, sweetest little kindergartener I've ever met.  She and her family are not afraid of a little cold weather. In fact, they love being outdoors, especially in the winter. When Olivia's mom approached me about a family photo session involving their snowmobiles, I thought it was a great idea! Mother Nature cooperated, giving us beautiful sunshine and blue sky.  Here are a few of my favourites from the day.
