Are you looking for my kids?
Nope, narry a kid to be found.
A while back I joined a few Photography Associations here in Montreal - and I'm always reading about all the fun shoots they go to but never got to one yet.
Till last Sunday.
It was suppose to be at this beautiful park but at the last minute the venue changed because rain was threatening. So about 25 photographers (United Photographer of Montreal ) met under the Jacques Cartier bridge (it's pretty big) and the models showed up. The urban setting was actually more in keeping with the style of the models anyway so nothing was lost.
And everybody brought yummy food. Someone made tandori salmon (oh mama that was good!!) and home made wine and plenty of good stuff.
After about 4 hours of shooting I had used up both cards (8Gbites each) so it was time to stop for me.
Take a look at some beautiful photography at Lisa's site today.
Of course, the best part of the day was seeing our car drive up at the end of the day, window rolled down and 2 little munchkin voices screaming...."MAMA MAMA!"
Yeah....it was a pretty cool day!
Hope your week is halfway to perfect.
Hi, I'm Wanda. I am a happy woman, wife to Danny for...oh....lots a years and finally Mom to THE most adorable little girl from Hunan, China - Dahlia. And now we have been blessed again with another daughter, Milana, from Zhejiang, China. (The 2 best things I've ever done!)
We live in the Montreal area. After a loooonnngg wait for Dahlia's little sister Milana (pronounced - Mee-lana, like banana), we finally brought her home in August 2009. Dahlia came to us in Nov 2004 (at 20 months of age)and a year later we began the application for another baby - at the time the waiting period was around 8 months. Almost 4 years later (say what!?!)we, at last, brought Milana home.
This began as the story of our journey to bring Milana home and life with her big sister, Dahlia. It now continues as we live as a family of four!

Oh my goodness Wanda! I am so glad you had such a great time! I am glad you are meeting so many great people and making all kinds of new friends! It looks like it was VERY fun : )
Girl,
I am SO jealous! CAn we come live up there with you? What an awesome opportunity. I wish we had an association like that down here.
Your shots are amazing.. as always, but I have to say that first B+W one took my breath away. Something about her attitude actually reminded me of your oldest daughter.
Well done, my friend!
That was quite a photo shoot....just fabulous pictures. I found the X's too. Pretty darn clever!
What Beautiful Shots!!!

These are Fierce, Wanda --with a capital F! :) What a cool experience. I LOVE that first shot.
Oh WOW!! Amazing shots Wanda!!!!
Those are very professional shots! Such vibrant colours - even the black and whites.
Xcellent work, though I think your 'normal' people are even more beautiful
