Edmonton Family Photographer | Muttart Conservatory Part 1

I was invited to visit the Muttart Conservatory for the first time with these two friends and their babies.  They met in an Edmonton Moms Group during their first pregnancies and have become great friends and now they have two babies each.  I have a childhood friend that I've known since our Moms met in Lamaze class so seeing these babies playing together made me so happy.  That's such a special bond, especially when you're grown ups!  

It was so nice to experience all the plants and colourful flowers in this very cold Edmonton spring!

My favourite area of the Conservatory was the special exhibition pyramid featuring the Canada 150 Tulip--a beautiful tulip that depicts the Canadian Maple Leaf within its petals! 

Kelowna Family Photographer | Secret Session!

I was so excited for this secret session!  
We took these photos in the fall in the kids' traditional Japanese jinbei outfits and the plan was to make the photos into Christmas presents for all the family. It was all up to this little guy to keep the photos a secret from his Dad and relatives and he did!!  These two really liked sticking their tongues out for the camera!  KAWAII!
