Doesn't get any better than this.
What a great session!
To change it up, I had the opportunity to photograph twin-teenage girls ... what a change from photographing babies. Now, don't get me wrong - I adore those wee little ones, but it was really great to be photographing this age, as well! C & P, thanks for letting me drag you around town, looking for different places to for the photos.
Here's your sneak peek as promised. Your full online gallery will follow as soon as possible.
Thanks to the The Riedel Needle in Orangeville for letting us use their awesome art work as a background.

Using random.org, the winner is #5 - Melissa.
Congratulations, Melissa! I hope you enjoy your classes! Just e-mail me and I will let you know how to sign up for your complimentary classes.

(It was really hard to choose which giveaway was next because I have such awesome giveaways all lined up ... but I knew you all would love this one.)
This week's giveaway is a complimentary set of simple earrings, made by South Street Designs.
These earrings are made with sterling silver tags and oxidized sterling silver earwires, hand-made by Julie Joliat, a stay-at-home-mom to the south of us. Julie has been designing and selling her jewelry online since 2005.
All you have to do is leave a comment on this post and your name will be entered in the draw. Easy peasy.
While you're checking out these beauties, shop around Julie's store - her items would make FABULOUS Mother's Day gifts! Send this link to your hubby as a hint! ;)
I've bought quite a few pieces from Julie's store and love them!
Thanks, Julie, for hosting this week's giveaway!
P.S. If your name is chosen as a giveaway winner, you will have one week to claim your prize. Please e-mail to get your goods! ;)
