perfectly pregnant.

Michele was kind enough to give me a call and ask me to come along for her most recent shoot. Since I have zero issues playing "donkey" I was happy to tag along and even able to get some fantastic shots! So thank you Michele.

As for our beautiful model. She is due in a few weeks and looks absolutely stunning. Talk about the perfect baby belly...what a beautiful mommy to be. Yes her belly is truly that perfect! Sigh. Okay, maybe I have a touch of envy...hehe. Thank you mom-to-be for allowing me the opportunity to be a part of your session. I had a wonderful time being a part of these moments before your latest addition arrives and of course capturing photos of your little girl Miss "A" (she is too cute for words). I cannot wait to hear all of the details on your new arrival...

jellybeans + monies

A few more from our little shoot last night. I have been working tonight, so I selected a quick few that I had the chance to edit last night. I must say, both Michele and I sure are fortunate to have such wonderful little ones. Not only are they adorable [slight bias]...but they are even somewhat co-operative. Hey, you can get a wee one to do a lot for the promise of jellybeans [in Si's case] and "monies" [in Nevaeh's]. Whatever it takes!

I hope that you dont get too bored of these...I have more that I know I am going to love!

On a side note...I know Mama thinks she looks a little stunned in the one of miss "N" solo...but I adore how she looks so angelic! Its art...its subjective...hehe.

love?

Maybe one day! As of right now, getting these two near each other can be quite a challenge. Getting them together and looking at the camera...good luck. Although, I may have one or two that can pass...we will see.

Michele and I took the kiddies out to Summerland this evening and let them run around for photo ops. The light was not our best friend, although beautiful...we were chasing it. Luckily, Michele knew where to drag us all and I believe I was able to get quite a few favs. Tonight I will share one that makes my heart melt. Just a moment of peace...who knows, maybe one day it will be love. Don't worry...I will raise him right!

mike + robyn :: wedding

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Mike + Robyn's Wedding. They were married at Linden Gardens in Kaleden and I must say, everything about the day was beautiful. Not only was the location stunning, but the love that these two share for each other and their beautiful daughter is inspiring.

Mike + Robyn it was an honor to be part of your perfect day and the love that you so obviously have for one another.

Wishing you nothing but the best.

my models

I have been so busy with work [weddings, new logo, re-vamping the blog...the list goes on] and daily life that I have neglected to share any new photos of my favorite models. Of course, those would be my kiddies! They are way down the line in the way of processing, but I had to post something of the miss as she is growing way too fast...

Michele and I are hoping to head out to Summerland this week and have a shoot with the kids, so I will have loads to share and get caught up on.

Til' then...

mike + robyn :: sneak peek

I have been working away on your photos and thought I would share one of my favs so far...

Here is a little sneak peak to hold you over!

[I love how you can sense just how much Mike adores Robyn from this photo.]

getting organized

Sorry the blog is looking like a bit of a mess at the moment! I am working on getting my photos to display larger (thank you to my husband for being such a brainiac)...but in the meantime it is making previous posts look like a bit of a disaster. I will hopefully have things cleaned up in the next few days...

If anyone is having problems viewing the site properly please let me know!

dave + ali :: wedding

When first meeting a client, we never really know what to expect. Everyone is unique in their love story! Our first meeting was with a solo Ali and although Dave was not present, we were given a good sense of who he was from the way Ali beamed when she spoke of him. A second meeting only confirmed what we already knew. When we met with both Dave + Ali just before the big day, it was easy to see the deep love that they shared.

Thank you Dave + Ali for allowing us to be a part of your special day. Thank you for your patience in the heat and your outgoing personalities. We had a fantastic time!

Here is that long awaited sneak peak that I promised. We should have a gallery open for you very soon.

Wishing you nothing but happiness as you move forward in your lives together.

ryan + sharelle :: after

When I received a phone call from Michele [my lovely "ex" partner], I knew this was a session I could not miss. She was contacted via the internet and was excited to find out that they were looking for a Trash the Dress Session [TTD]. Now, often times this is an idea that is tossed around by a couple, but never comes to be. This time around, we quickly learned that they fully intended to take things all the way...

Thank you Michele for inviting me to snap some shots during your session and of course a huge thanks to Ryan + Sharelle who were just way too much fun and were truly up for anything. I hope that you enjoy your images as much as I enjoyed taking them.

fresh. modern. bright.

All the things I was looking for when I was designing my new logo...

Its been a long work in progress but I am loving the new look. It is simple and clean with a bright, sunny feel that brings a smile to my face. Don't get me wrong, I loved the last logo as well...but this is just more "me".

I have focused on one image for my header...I am going to go with this idea for a while. I intend to showcase a photo from a session and will likely be switching things up between 2 weeks and 1 month. To debut the new logo I chose Miss "A" from a recent session. She is just way too precious and I am very grateful to our friends for allowing me to photograph their little beauty.

So bookmark and keep checking as I have some sessions in the works and will be posting more later today.

Tomorrow I am off to photograph a wedding and can hardly wait to share...

thanks much
