Sue and her boys......Calgary Family Photography

"Carly.....I need some school photos....can we squeeze a shoot in sometime?"
YOU BET!!!  We took advantage of a no school day and hit Fish Creek Park.  In spite of it being a dreary day Sue and her boys worked the brown grass, leafless trees and made it look amazing! Of course we expanded the photo shoot to a family shoot because everyone needs an updated family photo!!

Sue lives down the street from me and what started out as two moms walking to school in the same direction everyday has morphed into a great friendship.  We spend Tuesday mornings together around our kitchen tables working.  Both of us work from home and often spoke of needing some companionship while working. So we made Tuesdays our work day! It's been great, some work does get accomplished, but I think that working on our friendship has seen greater returns.  Laughter, tears, daydreams, ideas all shared over our laptops, sketch books, crafts and lots of coffee are all part of our Tuesday mornings.  I'm so very thankful for Sue and her boys, we are very blessed to have them just down the street. 

I had a blast with these guys at the park and so did Tys and Ry! Because it was a no school day my boys tagged along and did a great job of not being distractions, or they did a great job until we got to the river. Let's see....5 boys....a river that is half frozen and a bazillion rocks....what should I have expected?  Thankfully we left Fish Creek with dry feet, although I was worried a few times!

Enjoy the photos Sue....thanks for being such a great friend!!

Share some comment love!!!






This is sooooo a Jaxon face! Definitely one of my faves!!





There was a disagreement before we left....Roan wanted to wear this jacket, but Sue wanted something a little less busy.  They both won.....but I promised I'd take a shot or two of his coat.  This is Roan.




Classic Sue.  Crinkle the nose and huge smile!






I loved this shot of Aiden as he just wandered around the riverbank.




Sue and her boys.  A great great crew to hang out with!
