Daddy's Heart in Her Hands

A precious afternoon indeed at Tina B Photography today. Baby S is the star of the blog! And a star she was! She was asleep when she arrived and slept for pretty much the whole session with the exception of a few minutes right at the end so we could catch a glimpse of her beautiful, sparkling eyes. We couldn't have planned it better if we tried! Of course, when it comes to babies, planning is elusive. You do know they have complete and total control, right? I wonder if Daddy knows that yet? ;) This little darling has complete and total control over your heart, Chris. That was plain to see. I doubt you'll complain about that though.

And Amy, I have to say you are one of the most relaxed Mamas I have ever seen. And it's no wonder, Baby S is a joy! She actually seems totally relaxed herself. That doesn't come all by itself. I believe it is a testament to the wonderful job you're doing as parents. But, was there really any doubt . . .

Thank you so much for the privilege of allowing me to capture these moments today!

Here's your sneak peek! Hope you enjoy!

Cheers, Tina B

Just Because We Love You, Mom

This afternoon's session with Tina B Photography spoke to me about the love of children for their mother. This handsome duo is Jordan and Kyle. They agreed to do this portrait session for their mom, Karen, as a Mother's Day present. 

I don't know too many young men who are DYING to have their pictures taken on a sunny Saturday afternoon. But they did if for their mom. That speaks volumes in my opinion. I think it's fair to say that you and your hubby have done a great job in raising these two.

I'll continue to look for your advice regarding the challenges of raising boys! :)

Hope you like the sneak peek! It was the fastest portrait session in history. ;)

Cheer! Tina B


You've Come a Long Way, Baby! :)

I was sooo looking forward to today's portrait session. The star of today's blog post is the lovely Kim. Recently convocated social worker, mom to a cutie patootie little girl and all around fun person that anyone would be lucky to know! I can say that because I got to know her for three months while she completed a field placement with my team and I at Mental Health and Addictions.

Kim's parents had requested some photos to commemorate her recent convocation so we definitely did that today. I, of course, saw it as an opportunity to have some fun, too! And Kim was game. Remember those "glamour shots" from the 80s? Well, we've come a long way, baby! It's glamour with a modern twist today!

And a portrait session on location at Tina B Photography is an exotic spot to be! We were even treated to a stroll by a mama and baby moose through the back yard! 

Kim, I know you're going to make an awesome social worker. That was quite obvious during our time we spent together.

Hope you like the sneak peek!

Happily Ever After

What a gorgeous day in Newfoundland! And well deserved! It's been a long winter. Tina B got to spend part of her day with yet another beautiful family! It's easy to see they are a happy, loving trio. Musical, talented, and an oh so cute 2 year old. The most luminous blue eyes you've ever seen!

It was sooo special to finally meet T! I do believe you've found your happily ever after, Paula!

Thank you for allowing me to photograph your precious family. Believe me, before you know it you'll be looking back at these photos finding it hard to believe that T was ever that little! Cherish every moment. I know you are.

Here's your sneak peek! Couldn't wait to edit a couple of these shots!

Cheers, Tina B

It's a Small World After All

Another fun afternoon with Tina B Photography! I had the pleasure of photographing the Bennett family today and discovered what a small world it really is. Turns out Eileen used to teach at the elementary school I attended in Brown's Arm. And this family had a close relationship with one of my favourite people in the whole wide world, my Uncle Nelson. I heard stories today of how Uncle Nelson would rock the girls to sleep when they were babies. I, too, experienced that privilege. Uncle Nelson passed away quite some time ago, but what a treat to get to reminisce on a Saturday afternoon in Bowring Park with a beautiful family.

Thank you for the privilege of photographing your family today and allowing me to capture some memories before your daughter heads off to Houston after just convocating!

Here's your sneak peek, Bennett family!

Hope you enjoy!

Be Still My Heart

Be still my heart, indeed . . .
What a fun way to spend a Saturday morning on SUCH a gorgeous day! A couple of hours in Bowring Park with my bestie and her beautiful baby girl. Only she really isn't so little anymore I'm afraid, Taf.  I can't believe what a young woman she has turned into!

It was sooooo enjoyable Taffy! Bailey is beautiful, fun-loving and sweet as pie! I wonder where she gets all that . . . Don't have to look far! She gets it from her beautiful mama and her fun-loving daddy. 

I am truly blessed to have met you 10 years ago. OMG, can you believe it! 10 years! This morning's photo shoot was one more treasured experience I will add to the list. You have no idea what a privilege it is to create beautiful images and hear Bailey's mama say, "Aww!!! I'm gonna cry" when she stops for a moment to drink in the beauty of her child.

I had a terrible time picking out a couple of images for your sneak peek! They're all so beautiful! Hope you enjoy!

Little Sweeties

Today I had the privilege of photographing two little sweeties! Tiny Baby E and her adorable "big" brother who is almost 5 years old.  Baby E definitely knew something was up because she stayed awake for almost the whole session! And big brother was great entertainment telling his knock knock jokes and about his inventions as a budding scientist. What a perfect little family!

Here's your sneak peek, Megan and Gerard!









Thank you so much for allowing me the privilege of documenting this moment in time for all of you!
Cheers, Tina B
