Little Smiles Photography – by Rachelle Hlaj

I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful little baby girl yesterday.  I just LOOOOVE newborn sessions and this one was so perfect!  She slept most of the time and only peed and pooped on my backdrop once – a record so far!  Thank you so much “N” and “S” for giving me the opportunity.  I’ve included one of big brother “R” as well, what a handsome little boy!


My Public Service Announcement

July 4, 2008

WEAR SUNBLOCK!!!!
While at the cottage we went for a nice long boat ride….sunny day, the wind in our hair- it was great!
Until we got home and realized how sunburned we were! OUCH! I now have blisters breaking out on my nose and forehead – painful enough that I’ve had to cancel a session for tomorrow because I can’t hold the camera against my face! So needless to say, I don’t think I’ll be forgetting the sunblock anytime soon!
Here is a picture of my poor sunburned face – please ignore the fact that I’m not wearing any makeup, its been a rough day!
Edited: I’ve taken off the picture..that was just too ugly to show the world..


Recent Session – July 1

July 4, 2008

While up at the cottage, I had the pleasure of photographing this beautiful family who has a cottage on the same lake as my family! Their twin daughters were so good that this session only took about 20 minutes! Thanks for a great (and quick!) session guys!




I’m Back!

July 4, 2008

Hi everyone!  I’m back from the cottage, what a week its been!  I promised pics, so here is a picture of my family cottage.

JUST KIDDING!!

Here is the real family cottage.  Its under construction!

So you can see above, the new house foundation is in the foreground.  In the background is the shop-where my parents are temporarily living in the front part.  Behind it is the shed, for more storage.  Here is a view from the lake.

So everything is just kinda messy with all the construction.  With all the rain we’ve had the black flies and mosquitos were still hanging around and bothersome.  My 10 month old developed a fever while we were there, cause unknown-most likely teething, but needless to say I didn’t take many pictures of my kids.   I ventured out with the bugs to get some required pictures of the construction project and thats about it.  I hope to get more when we go back for labour day!  I have lots of souvenirs from the cottage – bug bites and a very sunburned nose!
