A Beautiful Summer Weekend Captured!

One of my favorite things about the blogging world are the friendships you create online, and what's even better is when you meet in real life and realize you have more in common resulting in an instant, lasting bond. I was introduced to Rose of SIMPLY ROSE Photography when we both were nominated as one of Vancouver Mom's Top Mom Bloggers of 2013.  One of my lasting impressions of the blog party night was receiving her beautiful letterpress business card (i mean come on, it's LETTERPRESS, who isnt crazy about it?), suffice it to say we established contact almost immediately afterwards.

Rose, is a wife, mom of 1, a fur mama of 1, a blogger, and a professional wedding and lifestyle photographer based in Vancouver, BC.  Rose was kind enough to whip out her camera and share her talents with us one summer evening to document my family in our neighbourhood. She is easy going, talented, and excellent with children. Max is almost always shy around new people, the fact that we were able to capture all these photos in an hour session really says a lot about her demeanor- kid approved! Furtheremore, as mom's of toddlers know, these kids like to have some sense of control. Rose was not only adapting, but patient enough to just go with what Max was feeling like doing and the ending result was all smiles for our session. Mom's get it, and in this case, mom-photographers get it!

Here are some of my favorite photos of the evening!

Thank you Rose for your hard work and patience!
