When we lived in Boston we had the privilege to be apart of the sweetest joy school group ever! Zack was thrilled to be doing school and it was so fun because everytime I got to teach Preston got to be apart of school too! It was so fun for the whole family really to be apart of! These sweet kids became Zack’s close friends and we sure miss them everyday!!!

All the momma teachers.

My sweet little joyschooler! Love this kid so much! Congratulations Zack for finishing your first year of Joy School!!!

Hey Everyone!!! Well I guess I have never officially made the announcement. We have moved back to Canada and are super excited to be back. We really really miss our Boston and truly fell in love with the area but we are really excited for this next adventure ahead of us!! Anyways I also have some news that maybe not everyone knew??? We are having a baby End of July! We are super excited and can’t wait to meet this little bundle of joy!! Now the next item of business is that I have decided to do 6-7 shoots before the baby comes. Now dates are sort of flexible but I will not be taking anymore bookings past July 7th. So if you are wanting to book lets get you in before the 7th of July. I am excited to see all of you again and can’t wait to start planning your shoots!!!!Please Facebook message me or email me at mandybakerphotography@gmail.com

This post makes me so homesick for our Boston Family! I remember the first time we met this adorable fun family. We were at a party Ken and I and Ken said to me, ” I really want to get to know that couple over there” So being the chatty girl I am I started talking to this girl! We instantly just fell in love with these two and then when we found out they had a daughter Preston’s age we couldn’t wait to get together! They have been such a blessing in our life! As we lived in Boston being so far away from family they just became our family! We couldn’t of asked for better friends. Thank you for everything. We miss you guys so much and love ya bunches! We can’t wait for you to come and visit us here in Canada!!! xoxoxo

Enjoy your sneak peak.
(Are they not the most photogenic family ever!!! Love me that little sweet girl!!!)

I love all of them!! Thank you guys so much for such a fun night we sure miss you guys and wish we lived closer to ya. Love you all! xoxo

Make sure to check the last photo. Its probably one of my favorite family pictures taken haha.

Best. Family. Photo. EVER….

I had so much fun with this cute adorable family! They were so much fun and so easy to get along with!! I had such a great time hanging out with them! Thanks again and enjoy your sneak!

So I have had a lot of comments and questions on what its like for real on a photo shoot with kids. I am not going to lie.  I LOVE MY JOB!!! Does that mean though that probably once in a session a child may break down and cry or get in a fight with a sibling? Does it mean that they sit perfect the whole time? They smile for every picture? hahahahaha I just laugh inside when parents say, “oh man I bet other kids are NEVER like this in other family sessions” This comment makes me giggle inside every time. Kids are kids and they are going to be funny, they are going to be “bad” they are going to not smile sometimes, and they may have the occasional melt down. It just makes me laugh thinking of every photo shoot I’ve done. I love my sweet clients and their amazing kids. I love kids! I have 2 amazing ones of my own and I know that they aren’t going to be perfectly sitting still for every picture. So (with permission of my sister) I decided to show you how a real session with me normally looks like. I take a ton of pictures but I don’t care as long as the kids are having fun and giving me real smiles. We laugh, we play, we jump, we giggle, we bribe (somtimes) and just generally have a great time. I love my job and I love to be able to hang out and get to know people and their cute families. It has been a pleasure for me this past year to photograph your cute families and thank you for letting me be me and play with your kiddos and have fun with you all too.

Here is the sneak of my sisters cute kids. This is how a session with me really goes…

I love these sweet sweet smiles and miss you kids so much!! We love you and thanks for playing with Auntie!!!

Rae, Raezor is what we call her. Meet my very best friend!! She has seriously been there for me through everything. She makes me happy, makes me laugh, makes me cry (in a good way) I love her so much and Im so extremely sad I will be missing this cute little baby boy’s birth. Love you Rae. You are going to be the best little momma and I can’t wait to meet him!!! xoxox

I can’t say enough how fun and awesome this couple was. When they asked Ken and I to do their wedding we were honored to be apart of their big day! We had such a great time being around them and their great family. They have so much love for one another and are truly an amazing couple who are going to do great things!  They were so calm and relaxed even when things didn’t go quite as planned or plans changed they were so awesome to just go with the flow. They are going to be a dynamite pair!!!

We are so excited to share their pictures! Thank you again for allowing us to be apart of your big day! Congratulations again and we wish you all the best!!!

You could defiantly feel the love they have for each other and it was such a treat to be able to hang out with them that night! I hope you guys enjoy your sneak peak! You are such an adorable adorable family! xo
