I keep imagining what it would be like to have this as my yard! Jody and Kent are so incredibly lucky to be building a brand new home here soon. I can honestly say I’m jealous. Check out the to die for backdrop that Jody will forevermore be photographing her beautiful children at. I think I want an acreage…
This is another Drayton Valley session, but I want people in Okotoks to find me on their web search because that is where I’m currently living and working. I do plan to go back to Drayton at various times of the year to shoot, but I will inform the blog and Facebook followers of that happening. Here’s a huge post to make up for my tiny post last year. I have had the pleasure of doing this family’s pictures every year for the last 4 years. We always manage to get something different. Thanks for having me again Amanda and Ian!
This is another sneak peek from a Drayton family session. You might remember this spunky country girl from her newborn session. I had the pleasure of taking their family pictures once again this year. She is getting around very well these days, a little too well;) Tough girl though, she had a couple of falls, where I thought she might be done but she never tired out, she kept right on going a mile a minute! I bet she keeps her mom and dad busy during this stage of her life. She is very cute! Here are some of the fun images we got. I think I was right about my prediction from her newborn session lol, but time will tell I guess.
Here’s the full sneak preview from the first session I did in Drayton:
Autumn, beautiful weather, & good friends was what this past weekend was all about! Here are the sneak peeks I promised by the middle of the night tonight. Hope you are all as excited as I am about these! There will be longer posts on each family to come. For now, feast your eyes on these images that I’m so thrilled to share on my very own photography blog!
and the last one is from our visit to our best friends’ home in Edmonton of their new baby girl.
This session was a test of perseverance. The forecast said rain, the people said no rain, it rained on the way out to the session, then stopped raining for about a half an hour, then some pretty mean storm clouds came our way but we just got drizzled on. Meanwhile, people in Drayton got hailed on pretty bad. So we were lucky and took a break during the short stint of rain and got back to work because this family traveled from Edmonton to their cute little cabin in the wilderness. I can tell that the children absolutely adore going out there because they allowed me to spend about 2 and a half hours with them. We got many more fun ones, but I thought I’d leave those for surprise for Christmas cards etc;)
Okay so this post took me 2 hours and 15 minutes to get up here! Holy smokes it’s like I’ve never done this before. Here is a session from the Sept 3rd weekend of Fall sessions in Drayton Valley. I just love them! I had such a hard time picking images to share because these people are so photogenic and we spent a lot of time at their awesome farm getting really cool shots. I really appreciate the whole Wood family for having me out, it was such a blast! What’s awesome is that people who booked me for fall sessions this year are getting the disc! Yes that is correct, they get all of their proofed images on cd because they bought collections. It’s very exciting for me, because all of my hard work will go into the hands of the rightful owners to be treasured forever!
Most people know by now that I am moving to Okotoks on July 30th 2010. But don’t freak out until you hear the good news, I’m coming back to do fall sessions here in Drayton on September 3, 4 and 5th.
There are 5 sessions available and you must purchase a collection. All of the collections include a cd of high resolution images, you can print as many as you would like! Collections start at $600 and a 50% deposit must be paid at the time of booking your session to secure your session time. Emailing is the best way to contact me at this time, jackiehutch@gmail.com. Thank-you to everyone for your continued support and I can’t wait to do these sessions! Fall in Drayton is the most beautiful time, not necessarily the best weather! If the weather does not permit, sessions will be rescheduled to the Sept 24th weekend. Here are some from one of last years family sessions:
Just wanted to share one more from the Carpenter’s session from a month ago while I upload files from Tara and Kyles wedding. Isn’t Jack adorable in every way? I’m designing a book for the Carpenter’s and I can’t wait till it goes to print. My favorite part of a session is seeing the images in gorgeous vibrant print.
