Family Photography: Jennifer, Craig + Kurt

July 24th, 2009

This family will always be imprinted in my memory as my first google family. Yes, meaning the first family that found me through a google search. When I received Jennifer’s email a couple of month’s ago asking about getting family portraits done I almost fell out of my chair.  Someone searched and found me?!  And she did, and out of the I don’t know how many people she contacted, she decided that I was the photographer for her and her family.  I was beyond happy…ecstatic was more like it.

Jennifer and Craig used to live in Vancouver, but now reside in Calgary.  They were coming to Vancouver for a mini vacation and decided to get some family photos done with their son and Craig’s mom.  Jennifer and Craig wanted a location that showcased Vancouver, but was also somewhere close to their heart so they chose Spanish Banks.  What a beautiful beach!  The Vancouver skyline in the back, sandy beach, and a park full of trees and running dogs.

This was Kurt’s first trip to the Pacific Ocean, so they gave him the chance to play in the water.
His first touch of Pacific Ocean Water!

I had updated my About Me page and said I am a redhead (which I am) and that I think redheads are beautiful (and do), so after Jennifer had read that she sent me an email say that I was going to love them cause her and her son have red hair.  Did I ever!  But we all know that having red hair usually comes hand in hand with fair skin so they came prepared with a cute hat for Kurt as well as a umbrella for a pop of colour!  Love it when client’s do that.
