Baby D. Cute as a Button- Newborn

This weekend I had the chance to meet Baby D. She definitely is cute as a button! She decided not to follow her usual routine. I guess at 9 days old she is still a bit unpredictable. Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to meet her. Enjoy!







I am positive that there will be a few more sneak peeks coming soon.

Handsome Bachelor - Snow much fun!!

First session of the year was of a handsome bachelor. We decided to capture some portraits and then have some fun. Actually I was taking pictures and all of a sudden I was looking at a snowball that was about to be launched at me. I had fun during this session and am very pleased with the results.















Christmas Favorites

We had a great Christmas here at home. I hope everyone else out there had an enjoyable Christmas. Relaxing by the fireplace, toboggan ride down the hill, hot chocolate, eggnog, Christmas cookies, family, friends, parties and giving to others. I decided to experiment a little with my camera and have some fun.

Here are a couple of pictures of Santa when he made his appearance at the kids Christmas party.





The girls had a blast. I remember quite clearly how Ava repeatedly explained to me that she wanted to hide behind me and put her hands out to receive her gift from Santa. I don't know why exactly as she is not afraid of Santa at all. When it came time she very happily stood proudly in front of him and explained how she wanted Hungry Hippos for Christmas.

This is an image of the ice that was clinging to the trees around the neighbourhood the week of Christmas. I stood outside in -25 degree weather to capture this image.


I always love to capture images of the Christmas tree with the stockings placed neatly underneath on Christmas Eve. I decided to turn on the Christmas lights and turn off all remaining lights in the house. I am very pleased with the result as this is exactly what I was hoping for.

Candy Cane Kisses

These two girls love candy canes. They couldn't wait to eat the props I had for the Christmas session. Little B. ran around the house screaming "cane". A. kept repeating "open this now please, I'm hungry". I really enjoy seeing love between sisters and I could not divert them away from eating the candy canes to kiss or hug during the session. All of a sudden by surprise A. leaned over and started hugging and kissing little B. Then she said "We are all sticky. I want to go play now". Here are my favorites from the candy cane kiss session.

Christmas Card Session

In December I received a phone call and this family wanted a Christmas card session. I love including Morgan. I was shopping one day and found a new prop for Morgan to pose with. Sometimes I think she sees me and thinks "I better run!" but she always cooperates and greets me at the door.

Exciting News

I have been slacking since mid-December on updating my blog. I do have a Christmas session that hasn't been blogged but the clients fully enjoyed their photos during Christmas. Over Christmas I decided to fully engage in the enjoyment of having my family together full time. It was a great holiday full of family and I decided to not blog anything during this time. Now that the New Year is here I will be fully updating the blog over the next week.

I hope that all family, friends and clients had a great Christmas and are ready for all of the great adventures in 2010.

This year I will be mentored by a great photographer and friend, Hope Walls. This is a very exciting adventure for me and I thoroughly thank her from the bottom of my heart for allowing me this opportunity.

I will also be open for new clients. This is the year that the business will develop and I offer you to contact me for a session and enjoy a limited time offer on session prices. If you have been considering capturing your family, maternity, newborn, toddler or telling a story through photos this is the time to take advantage of a great deal. I enjoy getting messy with kids and would love to tell a story about their first birthday cake smashing or sweet stories of your daughter's daily tea party with her favorite bear. Perhaps you love walks or climbing a tree with the family and would love to capture the moment. You can contact me by email at knittigphotography@gmail.com for more details on the session building prices.

For anyone who has had a session with me already I will be offering a Referral Program soon.

Stay tuned for a bachelor session coming soon.

Happy New Year!!
