Baby Oopies – baby models!
Baby Oopies is a new home-based business on Saltspring Island, run by an amazingly talented mother of two who creates some pretty fantastic and unique products including some REALLY GREAT cloth diapers, clothing, toys and play food. So, she just got a awesome opportunity selling her wares at West of the Moon toy store, located in downtown Ganges. If you haven’t had the chance to visit the store, you’re missing out on some pretty fantastic toys. There are very few boutiques that can come even close to the diversity you’ll find there.
So, I made my way over to Saltspring Island last week and we set aside a few hours for a commercial shoot for her new line of products.
I was able to work with some pretty amazing models: beautiful, giggly, happy…. drooling.
Here are some of my favourites.
Nom nom….
Om nom nom.

A beautiful rose dress and crocheted bananas.

(And what are bananas without a monkey?)


One gorgeous little blonde boy who really liked his trains.

… and his pretend chips!

Some of the models were real monkeys.

…Others just loved to play with them.

Strike a pose!

(Baby Alfie was quite the little ham.)

Jonah preps for his shoot with some baby yoga.



Two little girls have a tea party (with a complete crochet tea set!!).


Look at how cute this set is! Oh, be still my heart! I wish I had stuff like this when I was a kid.

The babies loved their diapers as much as the moms did. Colourful, soft and so sweet – from little ones…

…To bigger ones.


Thanks to everyone who made the day a success! Working with a roomful of babies can be pretty loud, and sometimes a little fretful when they’re playing near the lightstands… but man is it ever a lot of fun.
