a little photoshoot

photography by Vincent Kember @ www.vincentkember.com

Well, as you all probably know the CCCWA (China Center for Children's Welfare and Adoption) requires a family photo to be sent with the dossier to China. And to be honest, we figured it was about time we got a formal photo shoot with the three of us together!

So we asked our good friend Vince to take a few pictures of us. Might I add he is a very talented photographer and if you live in the Ottawa area, he's the guy you want to take your picture. His website is www.vincentkember.com. He also attends our Church, so we know him very well and you'll see from these pictures that Lilah is comfortable with him. VERY comfortable. In fact, I think it would be fair to say that he is one of her loves, she still thinks she got married to Vince & Ciela when she was a flowergirl at their wedding last year!

There are many many more pictures, beautiful pictures... I'm sure I'll be posting plenty more over the next few weeks!

  1. OH my word... I absolutely LOVE these photos from your shoot! All of the family ones are gorgeous... how can you choose just one!?! I especially liked the ones under the tree and the lone one of Lilah Grace holding her teddy under the big tree...stunning!

    I'm so excited about you adopting again. I cannot wait to see the face of Lilah Grace's new sibling... she is going to be a wonderful jie jie!! :)

    And for the record, your blog is still one of my favorite places to visit... I always leave here encouraged in the Word and with a smile on my face!

    Blessings and Hugs,

  11. Hi Mary!
    I bought those cute little silver shoes in Old Navy at the beginning of summer. I doubt very much if they're available now.
