The McAfee Family

in , ,

We love our clients!

The following blog is all about the McAfee family session that we photographed a couple weeks back. Not only were they just such a nice family, but when we showed up in Rideau Ferry to take photos they had already staged this super cute set-up in the middle of a field, AND had bought adorably coordinating clothing for all the young ones.

Take a gander at some of the photos. More can also be found in the portraits section of our website. 

While it is not easy trying to get six young kids to all sit, behave and smile for the camera, we actually love some of the more candid pictures. From our own experiences, some of the best photos from our childhood are the ones of kids just being kids. The funny (or pout-y) faces just give more of a glimpse as to what they were like at that age.

Strawberry Summer Pt. III

Oh yes. Strawberry summer is still going. What else did you expect me to do with so many berries? PIE.  Fresh rhubarb from the garden with a little bit of sugar, cinnamon and cornstarch as my thickener et voila!

National Ice Cream Day

I've alluded to it a couple times, or if you follow Jon on Instagram you will have noticed, I (Katriina) am no longer working at a boring law firm - but instead a beautiful, adorable, yummy, boutique candy store. In fact, The Candy Store. Located in Westboro (350 Richmond Rd.), we do all sorts of sweets and goodies - whether just a little bit - or for large events (Hello wedding buffet). Yup - I basically live and breath wedding and photography. 

While I haven't been super immersed into the wedding side of things, I love being able to make and do cute things for a living - if not for weddings, then in the store. Today is National Ice Cream Day. We sell a couple different flavours of ice cream so in order to get people in to the store, I took a photo to post on our Facebook page. Check it out. 

Another project I worked on this past week... we have so much cotton candy product in the store. Pop Rocks, gum, Jelly Belly, Circus sticks, Carambar, salt water taffy - and of course - actual cotton candy. So please - if you like cotton candy - come visit me in the store and buy some! Even if you don't like cotton candy, we've got plenty of other things so come visit.

I didn't make our new store window, but isn't it beautiful?
