5 Easy Ideas for Spring-Inspired Photos
It’s finally Spring! One of my favourite times of the year is Spring. The snow starts to melt, the sun shines a little longer into the day, and the weather is nice enough to start doing some fun activities outside with the kids. It’s also that time of year where you can play with some really fun photo ideas (perhaps even get some taken when your family is all together for Easter!)
Here are 5 easy ideas for cute Spring-inspired photos with your kids:
- Go to your local dollar store and check out their selection of umbrellas. You’d be surprised with the neat patterns you will find! Let each kid choose their favourite umbrella for some photos that are sure to produce some giggles.
- If you have girls, are they into tea parties? Find some fun dresses and sunhats at your local thrift shop and a cute tea set (plus some stuffed animals if you choose!) for some memorable shots of your girls.
- Pretty soon the dandelions will be out. Have some fun in a field of golden yellow dandelions and take advantage of this pop of colour for some bright and cheery photos.
- Check out a nearby park with trees, swings, and slides for some action shots.
- Paint some eggs or create some Easter crafts that can be used as props in a photoshoot.
From now until the end of June, we have some Spring mini photo sessions at Fish Creek Park. This package includes a 30 minute photo session and an 8×10 print or a set of 5×7 prints for only $79.
Take advantage of the long evenings and enjoy a photo session with your family in the beauty of nature. Our sessions are fun and relaxed and we aim to capture photos that reflect who you are as a family. Call Jana at 403 451 9769 to book.
Dandelion Mini Sessions!
With warmer weather melting snow, the ground is beginning to reveal the potential for new growth, new colours, and a refreshing break from the winter blues. Dealing with spring cleaning, whether it be indoors or outdoors can be a seemingly overwhelming task with dusting, painting, organizing, planting, and much more. However, we too often forget the fun times spring presents for kids. Puddle jumping, bike rides, sports, and sunshine are a few of the favourites, and let’s not forget, it is getting the kids out of the house. Win-Win!
Remember the days when you were a child and happened across those “beautiful yellow flowers” that appeared every spring which you truly believed were the most beautiful plants you could lay your eyes on, brought a bouquet to your mom, and felt that surely she would love them too? Of course, as you grew up you realized those over-populated yellow treasures were a weed, but we know that children enjoy them and you can’t deny how cute a child is when they bring you a big bouquet of dandelions. Kids love them, and as far as weeds go, they are some of the prettiest, and make for impressive, fun, and adorable photos.
This month we are offering a promo for dandelion mini sessions….. Only $99 includes an 8×10 and 2 5×7 prints of your favourite image! If you are interested in one of these sessions please give Jana a call as soon as possible at 
403 451 9769.

Dandelions were a lot of fun this year, everyone was thrilled to be there so it was easy to get lots of beautiful shots. …even in some kinda tight spots. Here are a few of my favorites…..
It was so nice to see Miss E again and how much she has grown up over the past year.

They are here. so far there is no snow on the ground so I think we might just be in the clear!
So… Yes, we are planning for dandelion mini-sessions.
The deal: only $29.99 for a 30 minute session! ….. special packages to be announced.
Location: to be determined. -although it seems like they are always around, these ‘pretty yellow pests’ actually have a relatively short lifespan so our location will be determined shortly before the sessions. (**if you see a great display of yellow please let me know. I’d appreciate the tip!**)
When?: Sessions are available this weekend, Monday & Tuesday evening and possibly, after I’ve checked with mother nature, next weekend.
Please let me know if you are interested so I can do my best to coordinate your schedule and my schedule with the forces of nature. 403-451-9769
Here are a few images from last year…..
