A Family Photo Session at Centennial Beach with the Vincent Family

Summer is an amazing time for creating memorable family moments. There's no better way to capture these special moments than through a family photoshoot. This summer, I had the pleasure to work with the Vincent family in Tsawwassen for a fun and exciting family photo session. It was a beautiful evening with this sweet family, and I want to share it with you in this blog post.

The Vincent Family was full of love and energy, and each member brought their vitality to the photoshoot. The photoshoot took place at Boundary Bay, where the family got to play on the beach and have fun while I took candid shots of them.

As a photographer, I love capturing genuine moments of connection between families, and this is exactly what I did with the Vincent Family. I got to witness a family who had a special sense of closeness and love for each other, which was a joy to capture. The kids were so adorable, and I could see the love between the siblings, especially in their playful interactions.

They worked together to make each other smile and make sure that every family member had a chance to shine throughout the session. The parents were also one of the most fun and loving couples that I have had the pleasure to work with, and their love and chemistry were evident in the photos I captured.

As the family played on the beach, and I snapped away. I could see the joy in the kids’ eyes, and the happiness on the parents' faces as they looked at their children. The family photoshoot ended with the sun setting over the ocean in Boundary Bay.

In conclusion, the Vincent family photoshoot was a special day filled with joy, warmth, and love. Watching them bond and play brought joy to my work, and it's precisely the essence of why family photos are so beautiful. The resulting photos of the Vincent family were stunning, and I'm so happy to have been a part of their cherished memories. I hope this blog post inspires you to take beautiful family photos this summer, knowing that you can create memorable moments that will last a lifetime.

Spanish Banks Family Photos | Vancouver, BC | Community Photography

I first met Jeannine and Kevin two years ago when I did their son’s maternity photos. When I met them the first time it was a beautiful mid-summer evening at Centennial Beach and we had a perfect pastel night to photograph. For their daughters maternity session, it was March, colder and we had a toddler in the mix!

 

We met up at Spanish Banks in the morning after already having rescheduled due to poor weather. Even though the forecast was calling for rain, it held off during our shoot and we were able to capture some really cool skies! It was a grey, foggy, morning and made for completely different photos from the last shoot which was great!

 

At the start of the shoot they let me know that their son loves to cuddle mom and dad – and so that’s what we did! I didn’t want to force anything unnatural for the photos and they were so happy to roll with it and so easygoing with each other. They were such a dream to photograph!

 

To the Shaw family, thank you guys so much for choosing me again to be your family photographer to capture both of your maternity sessions. I look forward to our next session together once and meet your baby girl once she arrives!


Centennial Beach Extended Family Photo Session | Tsawwassen, BC

Whenever I take photos with Kayla Ann I always know it's going to be a great session. I’ve bee lucky enough to take her daughters newborn photos and fast forward one year and her little girl is one! She's amazing at bringing together all the pieces to create a perfect photo session...outfits for the family, hair and makeup done, and most importantly, she’s ready to enjoy the session and her time in front of the camera! This was a super special photo session for a couple of reasons 1.) because it was her beautiful daughter, Emery's 1st birthday AND 2.) She had her family visiting Tsawwassen and this would be an extended family session, hurray for being able to travel in Canada again!

I met up with her family down at Centennial Beach an hour before sunset. It was another hot summer evening here in Tsawwassen but luckily it was starting to cool down a little. We began the photo session with Emery’s birthday cake photos. Following, we began with the family photos. The whole family was so photogenic, it made my job SO easy :) I loved capturing the grandparents with their granddaughter and all three generations together. We had a perfect sunset and ended up with our toes in the water..my favourite way to end a photo session!

Boundary Bay Family Photos with the MacKenzie's | Tsawwassen, British Columbia

The BEST family photos are when the parents embrace the moment with their kids and let go of perfection. This way, it allows for so many beautiful candid moment and your kids feel comfortable to be themselves. Their personality is what I want to capture and when parents go with the flow and enjoy the moment, kids shine so bright! And that is just what happened with Kristin from ‘Birth with Kristin’ and her husband Shawn. They embraced the beautiful chaos that 3 kids under 5 brings. Their patience and easy nature made for a memorable photo session. Kristin even made a comment that she was just happy her daughter didn’t wear her Spider Man costume to the session..but if she had..so be it :)

It was a beautiful summer night in August when I met the MacKenzie family in Boundary Bay for their family photos. Not a cloud in the sky and warm temperature, even after the sun went down. We started with their photo shoot with youngest son Ace’s cake smash photos. I had taken Ace’s newborn photos last year (you can check them out here!) and I can’t believe it was already his 1st Birthday! We got some great shots of him digging into his cake and even BETTER shots once his two older sister joined in the fun!

After his cake smash and a quick outfit change (the girls were wearing the cutest Rylee & Cue dresses from Buttercups Children’s Boutique in Ladner), we headed down to the beach in Tsawwassen for more family photos. The night had a perfect sunset and the family had fun with each other, laughing, cuddling and in the end climbing onto a log that had washed ashore.

To the Mackenzie family, you guys are seriously SO much fun to take photos with. Your calm and loving energy is so present it shows in all your photos. I hope we can do it again soon!

R + B Couple Photos Session | Centennial Beach Tsawwassen | Community Photography South Delta

Ray Win and Bruce are two of my kids favorite people. I’ve known them for 2 years now when I trusted Ray Win with the day to day care of my children at her daycare. As a mother, choosing a daycare is hard. Harder than I ever imagined. I went to check out a bunch when Tom was one and immediately when I walked into Ray Win’s I knew this was the place I wanted to send my kids. Georgia, will always reach for Ray Win when we arrive in the morning and is so happy when I leave her for the day. Bruce began calling my son Tommy Gun and now Tom insists that’s what we call him. Bruce, I’m not sure I’ve told you this, but when Tom see’s you at daycare, he talks about it, a lot LOL!

We planned their photo session originally in November. They had just eloped in Hawaii and wanted to do some local portraits. After our photo session was rained out 3 times we decided to wait for the summer and I’m so glad we did!

I met Bruce and Ray Win down at Centennial Beach. It was a perfect evening. Warm with light cloud cover, I knew we would have a beautiful sunset. We spent the hour we had together just having a good time. They were so relaxed and we just took our time capturing some great photos.

Ray Win and Bruce, thanks for hanging out with me at Centennial Beach for your photo session. It was such a good time! I really hope we can do it again soon! You guys are a dream to photograph!

Mom and Dad Alison and Nathan have had lots of adventures together. They met in Milan Italy and he proposed on a beach in Sir Lanka. They lived in Singapore before coming back to BC to start a family (what a life!). And now they are onto their next adventure of welcoming baby #2 into their lives this coming May.

I had met the family before at a Centennial Beach wedding I photographed last summer. The wedding couple were the sweetest, down to earth couple, so you could only imagine they had the sweetest guests! That’s how I connected with Mom Alison.

We met at Centennial Beach for their family photos/maternity photo shoot. It was a beautiful, clear evening, but right before the shoot started a super cold ocean breeze picked up! We headed down to the beach and sweet little Isla lasted a total of 5 minutes before she was cuddled up in her parents arms. It made for the sweetest connection in the photos. She had her head barried in her parents arms, and every so often would pop her beautiful little face up for a picture. We didn’t last on the beach until sunset because it was so cold. We moved to the back field for some shelter (which we didn’t really get) however it made for a beautiful spot to take photos for sunset :)

To the Camrie family: I had a blast taking photos with you! Regardless of the wind and cold, Alison, Nathan and Isla, your smiles outshone everything! I’m so looking forward to meeting baby sister this May. She is one lucky gal to be welcomed into a sweet loving home :)
