Hello! My name is Pamela Macdonald. Welcome to my photography blog! I love to find images to photograph through even the tiniest details placed all around us. I also especially love gearing my work towards photographing babies, children, and families. It is extremely rewarding for me to be able to help others in this way. I've been told to 'do what makes your heart leap', and photography is one of the things that does just that for me. I have found it as one of my main creative outlets and I'm so grateful to have been given the opportunities to start this little photography business of mine. What inspires me? Plenty of things: the strength that is my husband, bright colors, a calm melody, Fall weather, babies, sunsets, laughter, rainy days, bright blue skies, brave integrity, elegant and graceful demeanor, and love. This blog is where you can see some of the products of that inspiration and my thoughts on them. You can read my ramblings, find out more about how I work, leave a comment, see how to book a session, and of course, view my growing collection of photographs! Thank you for visiting and taking the time to look around! Enjoy! [...Find Out More...]

[...MATERNITY: BEN & DENISE...]

I'm back from my vacation in Puerto Vallarta! It was so wonderful...I'll be sure to do a post and upload some pictures soon :) In the mean time, here is a post I've been meaning to do of a maternity session I did.

Denise & Ben are relatives of mine, and they are expecting their 1st child...a baby girl, named Sophia!...on April 3rd! I was so excited when Denise asked me to take their maternity photos. I've known her since I was a little girl, so it was a pleasure to do it for them...I've never told her this, but I still remember being about 7 or 8, and I helped her with a handprint painting project that she must have had as an assignment for school. Not exactly sure what we were doing, but I just remember a lot of paint & having a lot of fun :)

In any case, the 3 of us met up on a beautiful, yet windy, Saturday to take these photos. Despite the wind and freezing to death, they toughed it out and did an amazing job. I am so happy with these photos, and hope they can be a great memory for the 2 of them in the future.

Baby Sophia will be here in 2 days, and we're very excited for all 3 of them :) Congratulations you guys! Best of luck, we love you!!

Here are some of my favorites from their shoot:
