This beautiful baby boy, at 13 days new, came to see me for his first photography session yesterday. He was a perfect little poser, who actually preferred being on his stomach (lots of babies like being on their back better).
His 11 year old brother was a joy to photograph as well.
Here is a preview of this baby boy!
Look at those eyes and that curly hair!
Isn’t he absolutely gorgeous!
Big brother was happy to pose with his baby brother.
Yesterday I had the pleasure of photographing the family featured below. This family came from Toronto to spend Christmas with the kids’ grandma. I’m not giving away the age of this beautiful lady but you would be surprised! I hope that I look this good at her age.
Here is a preview of the session:
I will be featured on Groupon on Sunday, April 21st and also featured with the Mother’s Day gift ideas. Tell your family and friends! The deal is the same as the last one, which I shared in my last newsletter.
I will be available for sessions on Mother’s Day. Why not take the special mother in your life out for lunch and then come over for a surprise photo session? Email me at chrismcwilliamsphotography@gmail.com if you are interested. I am reducing the session free to $55.00 for this one day only. Don’t miss a great opportunity to get some photos of your family!
I had the pleasure of photographing this 6 month old along with his awesome sisters today. Lucky guy to have such attentive and wonderful sisters!
Here’s a sneak peak!
My last blog post was about the newborns of 2012. These are the kids of 2012.
It was time consuming to gather up all these images but also very rewarding. I love looking at all the beautiful faces of the children that I’ve met in this past year.
It feels monumental to me to have captured these moments and to see them all on one page!
Here are some quotes that ring true for me regarding my photography.
“Time will never stand still and those moments that bring us such joy become memories in an instant. To capture such a moment and record it forever is truly monumental.” – Joshua Atticks
Photography takes an instant out of time, altering life by holding it still.

What a great day for family photos at The Forks. I usually only post 2 or 3 images, but I have too many good ones of these kids and so, I am posting a bunch! I had a lot of fun with this group!
Have a look at this preview:
Funny what you notice.
I never noticed cars until I was looking for a car to buy. I never thought about breeds of dogs until I had a dog. The same goes for being a children’s photographer. I notice people taking children’s pictures and often cringe, and think “What are they thinking?” Obviously, I would rather be taking photos of these children myself, but the next best thing for me is to ensure that people at least are taking the best photos of their children possible. With that in mind, here are some tips:
WATCH YOUR CHILD AT PLAY:
Happy Canada Day everyone! And what a beautiful day it is!
I photographed 3 wonderful children at The Forks yesterday. The little 3-year-old brother was not buying into getting his picture taken. In fact, he had quite a sour expression! That is, until we had some fun and then he was all smiles, which led to some amazing images. That just goes to show you, that although you probably will get some good pictures when you pose children and engage them in singing or conversation, you are guaranteed to get great pictures when you get them to do something, have fun and forget about being self-conscious!
I got them to “play drums” with sticks on some rocks, run and jump in these pictures. It was hard to pick a few for my blog, but here are some favorites:
Today was my 4th session with this little sweetheart. It was wonderful to see her grow over this last year and I’m a little sad that the year is over. Her parents will receive a photo book of all four sessions from this past year; a wonderful memento of how their daughter has changed from birth to age one.
Ella started walking a couple of weeks ago! Have a look!
I had fun with a sweet 11 month old and her 2 energetic little doggies this morning. This little girl was so cute and good-natured that the session was a breeze. It was a bit harder to get the dogs to stay still and look at me, so I put them inside of a big box and had them looking up at me.
