Carly and I were so excited to work together again after their Christmas session last winter. When Carly explained to me what she wanted for their maternity session, I knew just the place. She wanted to make sure their maternity session was fun and playful. She didn’t want the photos to be posed and still, she wanted them to be full of life and vibrant, and to showcase their family as they are right now, before the new addition arrived. I have wanted to plan a family session at the Edmonton Legislative Grounds for a long time, and this was the perfect family to bring this vision to life. We had a beautiful summer morning, and for most of the session not another soul around. What a perfect day for this Downtown Edmonton maternity session.

They played in the fountains, the girls laughing and running and chasing mom and dad. We wandered through the upper fountains, and then down to the big pools. We couldn’t believe no one else was around, it was just perfect! By the end of the session the girls were soaked, and mom and dad were too! A water fight broke out, and everyone had a blast.

Gareth captured their lifestyle newborn session soon after this maternity session – we’ll have that session up soon!

Thank you for such a wonderful morning!
