I Heart Faces ~ We ♥ Tooshies!

This week's challenge is all about the tooshie! I instantly thought of this photo I took two summers ago of my two girls on our deck:

Priceless! Check out more tooshie images at I ♥ Faces, they are bound to make you smile!

Baby "O" ~ Ottawa Newborn Photographer

Little Baby "O" was born a strong little guy, at almost 10 lbs. At 10 days, he was already able to lift up his head, it was amazing! This cute little guy also wanted nothing to do with sleeping, so gave us a run for our money - but it was all worth it in the end, because I managed to capture some of my favourite images!

Don't you just love little baby toes!






I also got to try out my new boy elfin hat!

November Mini ~ Chelsea Children Photographer

On Saturday, I was treated to a fun little mini session with two awesome little guys! The sun wasn't shining, but regardless it was warm and just perfect for the shoot and for little "B" to get in some Bender time.

My Session and Print Prices ~ Ottawa Chelsea Children Photographer

I am often asked what my session rates are and what they include. I thought I should summarize it on my blog to make the information more accessible to those who are curious! If you would like to find out more information on the sessions and print products e-mail me at info at christinedenis.com


Standard Creative Session
Cost: $150 + tax

This session begins with a telephone or in-studio consultation to discuss your vision and how we will work together to create images that will represent that vision. We will discuss the shoot, how to prepare for it, clothing suggestions and ideas that you may have and how to incorporate them into the experience.

Once your date is set, your session will last a maximum of 3 hours at my home, or in my natural light studio in beautiful Chelsea, Quebec (about 15 min from downtown Ottawa).

Approximately 2 weeks after your session, you will be presented with 25 to 40 images in a private on-line gallery, this will allow you to preview your images and make some preliminary selections prior to the ordering session.

At your earliest convenience, we will book a private ordering session at my home where we will review the images together, discuss print and product options and select the images you wish to display in your home or album.

Precious Newborn Session
Cost: $175 + tax

This session also begins with a telephone or in-studio consultation to discuss the concept of newborn photography, the creative vision you have for your photographs and what particular details are important for you to capture during our session. If you choose to order my custom designed birth announcements, details of the announcement will also be discussed at this time, this way the announcement will be ready for order right after our session.

Once the date is set, your session will last a maximum of 4 hours at my home, in my natural light studio in beautiful Chelsea, Quebec (about 15 min from downtown Ottawa).

I Heart Faces ~ Autumn Beautiful

Before I post my latest entry to I Heart Faces, I wanted to explain why I've been MIA for the past week or so. My computer's motherboard decided it had had enough, and crashed on me! It could have been the hours upon hours spend working, or just a lemon or a glitch, which ever, I'm happy to report that I'm back up and running and nothing was lost. My hard drive was not affected so that was good, and I also have multiple backups to everything, so all my photos were very safe!

Thanks so much to Francois at Komodo Komputer for helping me out so quickly!! You are the best computer guy in the Hills!


On to my I Heart Faces. This week was "Autumn Beauty". Autumn is long gone here in the Gatineau Hills, but the season was as beautifully colourful as always - the highlight of the year is the fall season!

Halloween Mini-Sessions, The Highlights ~ Ottawa Children's Photographer

The Halloween Minis were a huge success! The afternoon at HUSH Clothes shooting the cutest little kids all dressed up in their Halloween costumes was really fun! Each session was a quick 30 min and with little kids, that can be pretty risky. However, I can honestly say each and every little tiger, piglet, pumpkin, princess , dog and Dorothy were amazing! I had a blast! Here is the preview video and images, Enjoy!

And a closer look at the images featured in the video:

Thanks to everyone who came and Angie and Allison for letting me move in for the afternoon! Off to work on your galleries!
