Oh my. Every year we make Easter eggs I think to myself, “this is my favourite way of dying eggs”. And this year, I have to say it again! I LOVED the way these turned out.
To dye these we used raw eggs and boiled them in red onion skins and red cabbage. We used the flowers Julian and Adelaide brought home last week since they were starting to shrivel up. I have a bunch of tulle because of course I do, and we used tiny hair elastics.
As we were doing this we discussed ways to make these more natural. Audrey suggested washing the tulle afterwards, which we did and now we can use it again next year instead of throwing it in the garbage. And Adelaide suggested we use thread instead of elastics because it’s more environmentally friendly. We also love that they are natural because they are edible! So tomorrow night we are having homemade soup and egg salad sandwiches for dinner!

Thanks for stopping by!

Oh did I ever have so much fun with this family! I loved being able to document this family with a new baby, 6 year old twins, and two teens. I love the vibrant garden and the vibrant energy this family has! The love and silliness and beauty shines right through. I love how excited their pup even is to have a new baby in the house! Of course baby Gia pretty much just slept and smiled her way through her session. She even rocked her posed shots! She flashed her bright smile, she stared in to the camera with her beautiful eyes, and she also slept and gave us some sweet sleepy expressions.
In-home lifestyle newborn sessions are wonderful! If you want this kind of newborn session, but you also want those posed studio shots, you can definitely have both! I have an add-on where I can bring the natural light studio to your home. It’s the perfect way to end a lifestyle newborn session!
