eye candy | Greater Vancouver Photographer

so I’m neglecting my poor blog again… but to say that it has been busy at Belle Meinerz Photography for the past few weeks would actually be an understatement… and this is what I’ve been up to:

each and every image shows all the reasons why I love what I do. Capturing the love… the connection.. the beauty… life as it unfolds.


I had the honour to meet new beautiful mommas and their adorable babies, chase toddlers in tutus and little boys running around with their cars and open smiles, couples in love and birthday parties… so much fun! I’ll try and dedicate a full post for each session, so be sure to check back for more beautiful images!

Love,

almost one! | Greater Vancouver Baby Photographer

It’s a delight to watch the “Belle Meinerz Photography babies” grow… Not so long ago, I was photographing him in momma’s tummy (and then at 5 days, 3 months…) and now he’s almost one year old and beyond gorgeous. I just love his eyes — the most amazing blue eyes I’ve ever seen!
Here is a sneak peek of this seriously cute boy, momma was so anxious to see a few images from our session! Enjoy!

it’s a girl! | Vancouver Newborn Photographer

If you were wondering why everything seems so quiet around here, well… I have great news: my first niece was born a couple days ago! And I had the most amazing experience documenting her grand entrance to the world! My sister chose not to document the whole labor (well and how could I do that if I was also her doula?) :-) but as soon as baby girl came out, screaming from the top of her lungs, I was there capturing every single movement of hers! Such a precious, perfect little thing she is!

It was the most incredible experience ever. And such a coincidence that she was assigned to the very same room where I had my twins a few years ago… and the staff at the hospital… just amazing… I mean, the most wonderful nurses ever! Even Roman, the *fantastic* nurse who helped me all the way when I had my twins, she was there to help my sister with breastfeeding and such. Happy coincidences.

All around one of the most beautiful moments in my life. And I will never forget it.

Now for some images to illustrate this grand event, the miracle of life.

proud daddy cutting the umbilical cord…

Isn’t she perfect? Actually, that’s the very meaning of her name. Perfect.

She was wide awake even hours after the birth, doing all kinds of cute expressions that I, of course, had to capture :-)
My brave sister (no epidural, folks!) and my awesome brother-in-law (we were a team supporting her through the loooong labor, and he was amazing) were able to sleep for awhile (after the almost 40 hours labor) so I had my precious niece all for myself for a few hours! If you know me, I *adore* newborns, love them, so this was extra special for me — I was in heaven. Pure heaven.

I was even able to capture her first bath (at the hospital)!

My sister was so into it that she didn’t even noticed I was photographing her bathing her darling daughter!
and here she is, all fresh and smelling oh so good (I adore their smell, newborns smell soooo good!) and bundled up by daddy. He did a great job, didn’t he?

I’ll be doing her “official” newborn session soon so expect a lot more images of her on the blog! :-)

Do you have any doubt this gorgeous girl is going to be the most photographed kid in the whole wide world? :-)

I would like to take the opportunity to thank my wonderful, supportive clients for rescheduling their sessions during my sister’s labor/delivery and for their patience and understanding on the delay of putting up their galleries, and for their warm wishes. Thank You, from the bottom of my heart.
And also and foremost my husband and kids, for being always so supportive – I love you!

Welcome to this wonderful world, baby girl! We love you so very much!

Love,
