Congratulations!

A big CONGRATULATIONS goes out to Lisa and Mike! Lisa gave birth to their first child, Adèle Rae Poirier, on July 27th. Adèle weighed in at 8lbs 2oz and she's doing great. I was lucky enough to visit them in the hospital this afternoon and Adèle is quite a little sweetie. I'm looking forward to doing some newborn photography for Lisa and Mike once Adèle is home and settled in.

If you've getting ready to have a baby, or if you've just given birth, I would be pleased to speak with you about newborn photography for your baby. I offer at-home portraiture of your child and will work with you to make the baby as comfortable as possible for the photography. I am located in Navan and am pleased to visit your home anywhere in Ottawa and the surrounding area. Of course, you are also able to stop by my studio for the photography if you wish. I can be reached by phone at 613-884-3355 or send me an email to info@blakephotography.ca.

William's cake

William will be turning 1 on August 5th, and I wanted to create a portrait to mark the occasion. He's having his first taste of cake in these photos (and so is KC!).

If you'd like to do something similar for your own baby please let me know, I would be happy to do a session like this for you. If you have a little girl I can photograph her on a pink background with a pink cake.

This was a lot of fun, if only to see his reaction to a very new experience.

Another K6 partnership

I teamed up with Tristan and Christian from K6 media to provide them with imagery for some vehicle wraps they're producing for the Ottawa Academy of Martial Arts. They'll be doing two more vehicles in addition to this one. Once everything is done, I'll try to post images of the real thing.

Stacey, Guillaume & Etienne

This is another recent maternity session with some past clients. Stacey & Guillaume are amazing parents and Etienne is going to be a fantastic big brother, he's already giving kisses to the baby. Here's what Stacey had to say after viewing the proofs:

"Oh my Gosh Pat, you've done it again. I have never seen so many gorgeous pictures. I'm really speachless and it makes me want to have another one just to have another photo shoot!"

Thanks for the positive feedback, Stacey. See you for the newborn session!

Lisa & Mike

I had the opportunity to photograph Lisa's maternity session before little Adele arrives. Adele is a couple of days behind schedule, so she should be here any day now. Can't wait to meet her!
