Pea Tree Photography bio picture

Hello!

Thanks so much for stopping by my photoblog. My name is Norma-ann and I am an on-location portrait photographer specializing in all things adorable (Newborns, Kiddos, Families, Baby Bumps, you know, that sort of thing). I am also a wife to one terrific guy, and a mom to three amazingly beautiful little girls. Our third baby was just born one year ago and, my goodness, she is growing fast.

Being a mom, I know the importance of documenting these special, and fleeting times in our lives. Nine months can go by in the wink of an eye. Babies don't stay babies very long. And, before you know it, the kids are on their way out the door for college. Now is the time to remember. Now is the time to celebrate. Now is the time to document.

I like to capture these moments for you, the way I do for my own family: in very relaxed, informal, and fun photo sessions. No cheesy poses or awkward smiles. That's not the real you. I love to see movement, and colour, and big ol' belly laughs! That's the stuff of life. And those are the moments you will look back on, and cherish, forever.

You. Your life. Your love.

Captured.

It’s Fix-it-Friday!

I used the “Darken/Lighten Center” command to bring up the light on this adorable little girl’s face and I used the...

Cold Hands, Warm Heart.

Well, we haven’t gotten very much snow this winter. At least not around here. At least not until today!
And once my big girl got home from school, the middle-sized one couldn’t wait to get out in the backyard to play with her…in all that fluffy snow. I thought Maddie’s purple hat and gloves looked so...
