Introducing Your Cambridge Children’s Photographer…

Posted in Cambridge Childrens Photographer, cambridge maternity photographer, Cambridge Newborn Photographer, Childrens Photography, Family Photographer, Newborn Photographer, Waterloo Childrens Photographer, waterloo lifestyle photographer, Waterloo Newborn Photographer, waterloo region photographer

 

“ME”

I am a Mother of two – soon to be three.

I love my boys, my husband, my wiener dogs and my Canon.

My bed is not currently made, I don’t drink enough water and I occasionally enjoy a good big mac.

I love life – and I love seeing life through my lens.

 

I’m a natural light photographer based in Cambridge, Ontario and serve the Region of Waterloo and surrounding areas.  I specialize in newborn photography, children’s photography and family portraits.

For as long as I can remember I have felt more complete with a camera in my hand.  Even at a young age I remember always trying to get “the shot”.  The one that would be worthy of my little desktop frame.  Today my little desktop frame has been replaced with a more grandeur version of it’s former self.  My home is adorned with art.  My art.  Our art.  The art that my family has created in our memories.  My little frame has graduated to wall displays, canvases and photo books.  Each the perfect package for the moments in time that they preserve.

As your photographer it is my job to capture YOUR new moments that you are creating with your family.  To take those moments and turn them into art.  Your art.  To get all of those incredible memories off of your computer and into their rightful spot – into your grown up version of your own little desktop frame – to be presented to the world and loved and enjoyed as they should be.

Contact me at info@hulahoophotography.com to book your own photo session and create your own family heirlooms.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Cheers,

Nicola

Mom – Cambridge Family Photographer

Posted in Cambridge Family Photographer, Family, Family Photographer

I’d like to invite you in to my Mother’s Day morning:)

It started by being presented with a lovely breakfast in bed by my little ones and my hubby.  Delicious crepes, beautifully presented on spider man tray complete with card and a bag of mini eggs.   I attempt to sit down and enjoy, however Oliver and Eli climb up into the bed and are starving.  What’s a mom to do?  Of course the boys get the crepes – and at the same time get the lemon and seeds all over my bed.   I then suggested that we move the festivities to the kitchen.  Down we go.  Hubby cooks up more Mother’s day crepes. Oliver and Eli happily sit at the table gobbling them down while I attend to Miss Ivy who now also needs to eat.  I then take Ivy girl upstairs since she’s tired and try to rock her to sleep.  Twenty minutes spent unsuccessfully trying to get Ivy to sleep so we come back down stairs.  At this point now everyone has dispersed from the Mother’s day breakfast so I eat by myself standing at the counter, wolfing it down before Ivy becomes less than content once again.

Mothers.  You all know it.  You’ve been there.  Always everyone before yourself.  But you’d likely not dream of having it any other way.

To all of the beautiful, confident, strong, selfless Mothers out there.   I wish you a Happy Mother’s Day!

Revel in your children today.  YOU are their world

xo

….and now for my beautiful Mama’s day mini Mamas.  Muah!  Have a great day ladies!

Going Back – Guelph Family Photographer

Posted in Cambridge Family Photographer, Cambridge Photographer, Childrens Photography, Family Photographer

For any Mom that’s had to do it – you know how heart breaking going back to work after maternity leave is.

I recently got to photograph little Miss for her first birthday cake smash session.  A day that is so bittersweet for many Mamas out there.  Your little girl has just turned one, such a huge milestone, but it likely means that you’ve either just gone back or are getting ready to go back to work:(

The love in this family was evident.  And it was also evident that this Momma and her “miss” have had an incredible year together.

Hang in there, Mama.  You’ll be just fine – and so will she

Southern Charm – Cambridge Family Photographer

Posted in Cambridge Childrens Photographer, Cambridge Family Photographer, Cambridge Photographer

My first Momma mini – for a Momma that’s very dear to my heart.

She’s a Carolina girl and a real Southern Belle through and through.  I’ve trusted her with my children and she has loved them with all of her heart, as if they were her own.  In return they love her back.  She’s the sort of kindness that doesn’t stop giving, thinking and doing for others.

Her little man is lucky to have her and as you can see I think he knows it <3

Happy Mothers day Y’all!

xox

Nine – Cambridge Child Photographer

Posted in Cambridge Childrens Photographer, Cambridge Family Photographer

Nine.

I remember being nine.  I feel like I am STILL nine.

I was nine years old in 1986.  The year that Mike Tyson was named the youngest heavyweight champion in history.  The year that smoking was banned on all public transportation including buses, plaines and trains and the year that a full survey was carried out on Loch Ness, hoping to find the fabled Loch Ness monster.

I don’t remember any of these things of course, but what I do remember is this.

The way my mom’s perfume smelled.  I remember the room that I shared with my younger sister and the kite that hung from the ceiling, the endless games of “sleepover nursery school” that we played in the basement.  My dog, Trixie.  The puppet theatre that my Dad surprised me with after I had made some three billy goats gruff finger puppets at school.  I remember the little things.  The things that were my childhood.  I wish I could wrap these things up and put them in a box under my bed never to be forgotten.

I was so happy to photograph this beautiful girl and her family for her ninth birthday.  The year before she enters those all important double digit numbers.

I hope that she looks back on these photos and remembers how it feels to be nine, how it smells to be nine and how nine is fantastic and amazing.  I hope she puts these photos in a special box under her own bed.  Never to be forgotten.

I’d like to take a moment to thank my fellow photographer Mandy Blake for the inspiration to do a library session.  Our little birthday girl is apparently quite the bookworm.

Happy Birthday:)

Playtime – Kitchener Family Photographer

Posted in Cambridge Family Photographer, Family Photographer, family portraits

I think some families are surprised at the things I get them to do during their Hulahoop family portrait session.

I feel like my photo shoots often take on more of  a play date feel rather than a traditional family photo session where everyone lines up and smiles at the camera.  I think sometimes that people must walk away thinking…”well, I’m pretty sure we got nothing out of that.”

and to them i say…..

This.
