Take a look at A’s curls, seriously every girls dream. Plus he has an adorable personality to match.

This little cutie is without a doubt loved.

Every single family member I got to meet yesterday just lit up in his presence. It truly is an amazing thing to watch, how such a little guy can bring such a huge amount of joy to everyone. Good things really DO come in small packages!!

This was a very special session with all of the family because they were celebrating a 60th birthday.

I hope you had a wonderful birthday with many more to come.

It was such a pleasure meeting your family … hope you enjoy your little sneak peek.

Girls Just wanna have Fun ~ Montreal Family Photographer

mell — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 19:57:27 +0000

Something about playing dress up reminds me of this all time favorite quote.

“Dance like nobody’s watching; love like you’ve never been hurt. Sing like nobody’s listening; live like it’s heaven on earth.”

I love playing dress up with little girls, it makes me feel young again. Reminds me how the littlest things can make you happy and how carefree kids can be.

It must be the freedom of being a child, and doing whatever your little heart imagines and not worrying about what others will think that draws me to children, I get right in there and remember as though I was 8 just yesterday (don’t I wish!LOL).

When I took these two sweet girls outside to play, we had an audience (no doubt with how cute they were in their red matching dresses and bright blue eyes!), something about kids playing in a busy park in the middle of downtown Montreal just makes you want to stop and enjoy.

I hope your trip here was a pleasant one, even if it was so short!!

I also love when mom suggests to give her daughter who is turning one soon a pastry to have fun with…and who in response to me asking about the pretty dresses getting dirty replies: they can be washed!

Boy did she love it too!

She didn’t stop until it was all finished…no joke!

Happy Birthday sweetie~

xoxo

New at Mellanied Photography ~ Montreal’s Family Photographer

mell — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 16:34:26 +0000

With the holidays around the corner, I thought I would bring out an all new favorite of mine…I actually finally got up a wall display of photos of the 5 kids…and decided to try the all new *LUXE* Floatmounts.

These babies are to die for! Honestly, or maybe it is because they really are taken of “my babies” but what an amazing combo.

I have canvas up on my walls and swore by them but I wanted something a little more subtle for my living room and these were the perfect fit…I love having a variety in my home and these just make me smile!

Take a look, what better way to get a feel for what they are that to see some photos.

Enjoy!

Fun Contest ~ Montreal Family Photographer

mell — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 18:48:58 +0000

In light of my upcoming birth I thought I would have a fun contest for all my fans and previous clients.

It is simple….just guess when the baby will be born in the comment field below.

You *must* enter a date and time.

A little background:

This is my third child.

My first son was late, and I was induced 2 days after my due date. I was in labor for 18 hours and had him at 3:41 AM.

My second son came 10 days early. I was in labor for 6 hours and had him at 12:05 pm.

During my 20 week Ultrasound the Doctor said he/she (it is a surprise) was measuring small.

At my Obgyn appointment last week she said the baby was neither small nor big and should be the same size as my last baby which was 7lbs 8oz.

I am now 28 weeks pregnant and my estimated due date is July 23rd.

Good LUCK and the winner will receive 50% off a fall session with me when I resume working.

Feel Free to ask any questions in the comments below..I will gladly answer. This contest will be open until further notice.

I am so excited to offer these limited edition Mothers day Mini Sessions. But it isn’t limited only to mothers…good for so many occasions, maybe to celebrate a child’s age, how about for some engagement shots, bridals, siblings, oh the possiblities!!

Everyone must know by now that I am expecting our 5th child (yes FIVE!!) and with that I want to squeeze in as many sessions with you as possible before it becomes impossible So what better way to honour motherhood and the miracle of birth by giving all of you a great opportunity!

Of course I do have limited space. The all inclusive fee does need to be paid in full in order for me to secure your spot for that day. I still haven’t decided where I will be shooting, but I do have a few favourite places in mind!

A little girl only turns two years old once…and what a cutie she is. She had all of her friends & family over and everyone had a blast. The weather turned out perfectly even though mom was so worried it was going to rain!

Recognize this next little guy? I can not get over how big he has gotten…he is still such a sweetie, and calm natured just little his mommy but identical to his Dad, yup it is mini moe!
