Ok… I admit it. I’m totally biased but this little one is so delicious. As if I wouldn’t already be completely smitten, she had to go and be the perfect baby model. Twist, turn, flip… she slept through it all. Amazing. My brother and sister in law were also brave enough to let me have […]

I was so excited when Lisa approached me to photograph her vow renewal. It was her and Anthony’s dream to go back to the beginning of their marriage and celebrate the changes, the good experiences, the challenges overcome, and the fact that they are still very much in love. Weddings are truly wonderful, to be able […]

And we loved it!! What an incredible setting to begin a new life together. A beautiful gazebo, constructed by the groom and his Dad, handmade benches, a warm fire, friends, family, and so many special touches. This wedding was unique, not only in it’s location but also in the way that the couple and their families […]

We’re excited!!

We had so much fun running in the park with this beautiful family. Vibrant kids, a warm sunny day, adorable outfits (the LACE!!) and we had a winner. These children really captured our hearts! Keep an eye out for the photo bomb….

WHAAAAT?? Reboot the dress…..? You bet! Remember that beautiful dress you bought and loved and wore for one short day? Why not haul it out and give it new life?? Thanks to my lovely sister in law’s suggestion, that’s just what we did. Advantages to having a photog in the fam… photo sessions. Disadvantages… waiting […]

Little girls are a bit of a specialty for me… I hate to brag but apparently that’s all we do in my house… LOTS OF GIRLS!! My poor husband… I just loved this little wee girl! Her hair! Her lips and those CHEEKS!! She is a stunner. And with a personality to match. No way […]

Thanks for your patience everyone! It’s been a LONG time since my last post so I’m hoping to do some catch up in the next few months. This little guy just about got photographed twice. His Mom contacted me for a session and so did her friends. I was happy to let this little coincidence […]

Welcome to the wild weather of the wet (?) coast! Despite Heather and I planning thoroughly… we booked two dates… and feeling like we were prepared for all eventualities… except for blizzards… the weather almost got us. However, being the tough, get-er-done women that we are, we dragged our men out into the weather and […]

Okay… so this.. was… fun.. Two beautiful people (yes.. you guys are… in and out), two amazing locations (grandparents’ properties), a lovely evening = a successful engagement session. Boats, forests, streams, we had it all! This session should definitely have a behind the scenes follow up… you should have seen Orlando in the paddle boat […]

Happy Family Day! It’s been a quiet but somewhat perfect day around our home so far… a little sleep in, a little snow, some french toast and a family snuggle on the couch while we cheered on the Canadian Olympic Women’s Hockey team! Lovely. We hope you are enjoying a relaxing family day as well! […]

What a day, what a DAY!! A good old fashioned, west coast wind and rain storm decided to show up to celebrate Jackie and Mario’s day! From windstorms threatening to blow away wedding tents, to pouring, driving rain the weather was NOT going to cooperate. No matter… this was a day to be enjoyed, a […]

Was it really ever this warm?? This time of year I tend to forget! Caleb and Julia had an amazing warm September wedding. Lots of family, loads of friends and everyone working together to make sure all the details were perfect.

But she beat me! The little princess made her appearance 3 weeks early (her momma was relieved and grateful)! However…. I still have to share some of their beautiful maternity photos. I think her big sisters are trying to steal the show! Stay tuned for newborn photos!

One thing I love about our business is that most of our clients are people that we have direct connections to. We feel so blessed to be able to work with people who are so kind make our “work” so enjoyable. This wedding was incredible. There was such a peace about the day. Ryley… you have […]

I love urban photography sessions!! Buildings, sunlight, railroad tracks, sidewalks, brick buildings, bridges… yikes! I could have gone on and on and on during this session. Nothing like a “new” location to get creative juices flowing. Thanks for the laughs Jackie and Mario. Bring on the hats! We can’t wait to shoot your wedding in […]

Ever wonder why we photographer types like to shoot in the evening?? There is something beautiful about the golden hour, just before sunset. Skin tones are warm, creation glows and we are able to use the light for creative effects! Caleb and Julia took us to Mill Lake for their engagement shoot… to the place […]

When we moved to Mission I was a little bit hesitant… to say the least. I love big cities. I love the vibe, the busy-ness, the always seeing new people. I love the access to the arts and culture and the ability to walk out your door and find something to do. However… I have […]

Tis the season but NOT for Christmas. Although… there were a few rainy days this spring that made me dig out my warm sweaters and have a little pre-summer pity party! 🙂 Alas! That is forgotten! Bring on the sun, sand, green grass and… family photo shoots! For those that follow my blog and facebook […]

What an honor to photograph these two wonderful people! I know Stephanie through our work as nurses (YAY Peds!) and it is such a privilege to be entrusted to photograph someone who knows me in a different role/life. 🙂 Stephanie and I worked briefly together in Abbotsford and we kept up our relationship through email […]

I had the privilege of taking these two gorgeous sisters out on a beautiful warm evening and fun was had! Their closeness and bubbly personalities definitely resulted in a lot of laughs!

I love music. It has always been in my blood and although my days of taking lessons and playing regularly are over (for now), I absolutely love hearing world class music played in my home! Who wouldn’t?? One of the wonderful things about having a violin luthier living on the property is being able to meet […]

What a sweet little guy he is. Now that my babies are growing up, it is so precious to spend some time with the brand new, tiny variety! Baby Keatin wasn’t so sure about the whole photo idea but once we got him settled in all cozy, he quietly drifted off to sleep and we […]

As a photographer, I love trying out new locations. It brings a sense of urgency to the shoot that causes me to be alert to new possibilities. As we were driving to meet Ryley and Liam, Orlando and I were watching the unsettled weather and as we got closer, we could see the rain pouring […]

This was another beautiful fall wedding! They are sometime risky where the weather is concerned but Danielle and Bryson were blessed with sunshine at all the right times. Just as we were wrapping up our outdoor location, it started to POUR! Thanks to some helpful strangers and a quick thinking groomsman (thanks Aaron!), the couple […]

You know those glorious fall days? Right before it gets cold? I love it when the leaves are starting to turn but the sun is still warm on my skin. This was the kind of day we met Darren and Kristie to photograph their beautiful family. Thanks guys! We had a great time with you.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Family, friends, cooler weather and some moments set aside to remember how much we have to be thankful for. We are really very blessed.

Have I said this before? I LOVE witnessing unfolding love stories. We know Bryson and Danielle from our church, before they were interested in each other (I assume….) but not before their story began. You see, Danielle and Bryson have known each other for quite some time. Don’t you love that? I can see them […]

Engagement sessions are some of my favorite sessions to shoot.

You might remember my beautiful colleague Stacey and her husband Brian. We had an amazing maternity session with them and now…. HE’S HERE!!!! Despite a sweltering photo session (remember those super hot summer evenings?) and a stranger loving him up, this wee guy was great. I love when families add personal touches to their shoots. […]

Waiting for a new baby is such an incredible time. There is so much unknown but so much hoped for and anticipated. That long waited for baby is already a part of your family, in your hearts, already loved. Having been there three times, I remember the joy of waiting and but I’m also empathetic […]

Jen is my fabulous massage therapist and I was so thrilled when she commissioned us to photograph her family. One of my favorite moments…. Jen’s son, Noah says to me, “So.. if I were a model I’d be making money right now?” Gotta love a future business man and entrepreneur! It was great to meet […]

On a cool, crisp day what is better than chasing twins to keep warm? These two monkeys ran and ran while Mom and I made complete sillies out of ourselves to get just the right shot. We laughed and enjoyed the energy and curiosity that comes with being two.

When I think of this couple, two words come to mind… Outdoor Adventurers! These two take “active lifestyle” to a whole new level. Mountain biking, winter camping, hiking, you name it, they love it! Ever since I’ve known Mel, the outdoors is where she loves to be. When she told me that Jason proposed on […]
