Yesterday I had such a great time heading out past Fort Qu'Appelle to the home of Melissa & Ryan & their brand new baby Griffin.  Oh yeah, I can't forget one other important member of the family and that is Stanford.  Stanford is an adorable 10 month old Boston Terrier. Hmmm, what else can I say about him.  He's gets wound up pretty easily and lets just say has some "odor" issues.  But even with that he and I hit it off right away.  Oh wait, this isn't Stanfords shoot so lets get back to the little man of the hour, Griffin.  He is such an adorable baby and was so good.  I have been waiting to take his photos for a while now.  I shot his mom and dads wedding, then mom's maternity photos and then was patiently waiting for his arrival.  So here are a few shots from the day at Ryan & Melissa's home that they have been working on since the day they got married, probably before, lol.  Its not finished yet but not much longer and you can sure see their hard work is paying of because its soooo nice.  Anyway, here's a few shots guys.  Hope you like.  See you soon.
IMG_7384.jpgThese first couple of shots were on a chair that was Griffin's Great Grandfathers and is over 100 years old.  In these shots he was also sporting my new "Munchkin" hat made by the lovely Natanis Davidsen of Natanis Davidsen Photography.  You can check out her work at

I love the colors in Ryan and Melissa's house!

IMG_7434.jpgThese next shots are all in Griffin's amazing nursery.  Ryan gets a lot of the credit as he did the painting.  Awesome straight lines there Ryan, lol.  And Grama made all the bedding.  So nice.

There was lots of laughter here and I can't remember if it was because I was taunting Ryan about making his lines look crooked or they could be laughing at the strange noises that I was making trying to get Stanford's attention.
