Modelling session 4 – the add-on

As I mentioned, my daughter finally agreed to go out for a portrait session. I had hoped to do this in the summer, to take some great images of her in her grad dress (which might just be the first dress I would photograph her in since she was 2 and I had total control...

Kristina - WOW those fall colors are stunning! She really looks so beautiful, great work Julie!

Cheryl Johnson - very jealous that you have a beautiful & willing model :D too many fab shots to pick a fave

Joyce - What a beauty she is, Julie. And the colors!

Nina - What I love about this series is that in some you can see a more future grown up young lady, but in some, you can see the youthful (and beautiful) girl she still is.

CarmenM - What beautiful colors! The girl has the poses down too. Great variety and beautiful girl too.

Shellie - Wow! Your daughter is gorgeous! She sure knows how to work that camera too!! Great images!

daveen - What a lovely young woman -how lucky are you, mama? – and beautiful images.

Anna-Karin - She is absolutely beautiful and I love the fall colors you captured.
It does not look like she is suffering from the very comon photographer’s child syndrome, lol. I am sure it was a fun time for both of you to do this session.

Lisa Kelly - Oh wow, these are just stunning and your daughter is absolutely beautiful. The colours are all gorgeous and the one of her leaning her face against the wall is just perfect.

Heather Gibb - What a beautiful girl!! I LOVE the ones w/the purple shirt against the stone and the ivy. Also, the last coat shot w/the railing is perfect!

Modelling session 3

Oh, poor neglected blog…don’t worry, the snow will soon fly, the fall portrait season will conclude, and you and I will sit down with a glass of wine and share some stories.  In the meantime, here is the almost final in the model series I did during my September renovation-procrastination modelling sessions (I say “almost” because once my daughter saw these...

The lighting and the composition and the beautiful subject just really makes these photographs perfect.

Joyce - What a beautiful girl and such fun, edgy images. Lovely!

Modelling session 2

Here is the second in my break-from-painting modelling sessions in September.  I wanted to note that the girls who participated in these sessions are not “models” by profession in any way. I totally think they did an amazing job!! To all the Canadians…I wish you a happy Thanksgiving! (yes, I do plan to eat more than my fair...

Cheryl Johnson - what a gorgeous model she is & your pictures have captured her perfectly

Kristina - Wow, I love these images! You really captured her personality and beauty. Lovely! Great variety here as well. Nicely done!

Modelling session 1

Back in early/mid September, I was in the midst of renovations (up to my armpits in paint, dust, clutter and so forth…not such a pretty sight!). So I decided I needed to do a few photo sessions on the side, to break up the monotony of it all. And since I don’t often have a...

Lacia - I have to tell you, I am SOOOO in love with your photography. I have been visiting your site every so often for the last year or so I think, and I just drool over the beauty of all of your photographs. I hope someday I will be able to get you to do some family portraits for us, as long as I can convice my husband! Your style is exactly how I would love our portraits to be done, candid and fun. I have a 2, 4 and 6 year old so it it completely pointless, not to mention mission impossible, to get them all to smile, or even LOOK at the camera at the same time.

daveen - Love these! She’s totally a natural!

Anna-Karin - what a beautiful young lady and you got such a great variety of her from this session!
It will be hard for her to choose.

allie - These are stunning!!! Gorgeous girl, amazing images!
