meryl & brian || maternity session || vancouver photographer

let me think...i've known brian since 2001..and meryl a couple years after that.. meryl was in our youth group! wow..suddenly i feel very VERY old. :p

regardless..brian and meryl headed out to vancouver about 6 months after we did. and rewind a little more - i photographed their wedding in 2005!

they are so much fun..and when they announced that "franklin" was gonna be a part of their family in may, i jumped at the opportunity to photograph their maternity session!

i had fun..i giggled as brian remarked, something like, "trace, i love photo shoots with you, i get to kiss meryl lots in public." :)

here's a few from our session down in the heart of new west at the end of april...

seriously..meryl is so stunning!!!!!! i love the next sequence..meryl laughing at bri as i tell him he needs to squeeze in there with her, meryl anticipating and then brian IN FOR THE DIVE! :)

how cute, hey? :)

brian was lovin' me..MORE KISSES!! :P

could resist with the CLEARANCE sign above.. hehehe.. :)

 it took 3 tries but finally we got brian in mid-air at the right spot!

thanks guys for letting me be my cheezy self and allowing me to document yet another milestone in your lives. love you bunches...and can't wait to meet the little man. :) xoxo

amber & jason - downtown maternity session || vancouver photographer

maternity + urban downtown = my kinda maternity session!

i was thrilled when i found out today that jason and amber are actually related to ANOTHER client of mine who i did maternity & newborn photos for! how fun! and they are doing a home delivery - yay!! considering i was a midwife and doula and had both my kids at home, i was FULLY in awe of them! :)

with ginger, their adorable garfield look-alike kitty, following up with curiosity, we did some fun shots indoors, and then we headed for the great outdoors...RIIIIIIIGHT as the sun was going down - score!

thanks for letting me photograph you guys..you guys rocked it! and hopefully little babe will be here, just in time. :) (amber's due christmas eve!)

hugs,
tracey

mama, daddy & audrey PLUS baby! || vancouver photographer

last week i was down in portland and seattle..GOOD TIMES!

i also didn't expect to been as blessed with my sessions as i did.. can i just say hello i have AMAZING clients!??!

ya i do. :)

first up for friday, the day after thanksgiving, was patrick, leslie and wee little audrey. leslie is expecting very soon and so we did a family/maternity session with them all. fun!!

they were such troopers; i didn't know what sort of CHAOS the macy's christmas parade was going to do on them getting down to downtown portland for their urban shoot.. an hour on the train and they still had smiling faces! see? i'm blessed! :)

here's a few from our time together.. they were so much fun.. :)

so great meeting you 3..can't wait for the next one...i will have to come for a visit.. ;)

hugs,
tracey
