Tis the season.....to BELIEVE

This morning I had a photo shoot and things didn't go well from the get-go! It had NOTHING to do with the lovely Quinn family, it was just my camera was wigging out..especially my flash! Arrrrghhhhhhh!! I was absolutely mortified!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Especially since the family is best friends with my friend Alex!

It was grey and wet outside, hence not a whole heck of a lot of natural light. The house I went to was the most gorgeous house I have ever set foot in, but my flash would not cooperate and I needed it to! I call my trusty tech support (AKA - Cheryl), but it was hard to explain what was going on over the phone. Thanks for your help though Red :-)

As embarrassed as I was, the Quinn family was unbelievably patient and kind with me :-) I tried my best to get as many shots as I could given the circumstances, but was frazzled the whole time! Aye yiii yiiiiii!!

The house was beautifully decorated for Christmas. Can you believe it is in 2.5 weeks?! I CAN'T!!  My favourite holiday movie is the "Polar Express" and the message behind the story is to believe in the goodness of Christmas and good ol' saint Nick. Charlie and Declan...two total CUTIES ....posed with Grandma's gold sign "believe". I just love the moment I captured with these two brothers given the time of year :-)

Anyhoo....here are some shots I managed to capture from today:
