Crystal & Floyd Say I Do

This pass weekend I travel to North Bay, Ontario to capture the wedding of Crystal and Floyd. I had been emailing back and forth with Crystal for some time but had never met for or Floyd for that matter, Crystal had found me through the internet. Upon meeting her she was exactly as I had envisioned- full of life, funny, excited, and nervous. We met at The Terrace Suites a hotel just outside of North Bay were Crystal was getting ready with her matron of honor Linda. After taking some photos there we headed into Linda and Don’s (the best man) house were Floyd and Don were waiting. The wedding was a beautiful sunset ceremony on the beach. The sunset matched the ceremony- absolutely beautiful. Crystal and Floyd congratulations once again and thank you for letting me be part of your wedding day.

Baby E

Well I got to meet a really great family today. There was so much love in their house and I felt it when SC welcomed me at the door. As I walked in I was greeted by PC holding a very happy baby E. As we chatted we discovered the our worlds cross over a bit. SC is from an area that I have visited many times an love and PC is involved in a sport that some nights makes my chest hurt (my husband hates when I can't watch and he need to shout play by play to me upstairs). What can I say I'm a freak and proud out it.

I soon discovered the E likes the game peek-a-boo and I have a feeling Mommy and Daddy play it very often and quite well with him. At some points it was me getting peeked around. It provided lots of laughs and giggles. Something else I discovered while I was there this baby can bounce and has the coolest bouncy seat I have ever seen. Anyway I know you don't want to hear me ramble all you want are the pictures. I could go on and on about these three but I won't.

SC & PC thank you again for having my into your home and giving me the opportunity to capture your beautiful family.

Enjoy the pictures.





With tomorrow being Canada Day I just had to include one of E in his team Canada Jersey.

Happy Canada Day everyone!

Who's the Boss

With that sly little smile and twinkling eyes H promptly said- H's the boss! To that Mommy quickly replied- noooo and H laughed and went on eating her lunch. When you are around you can't help but smile when you look at this little girl. The cheerfulness pours out of her. I have a feeling that the Terrible Two's will by pass this house 'cause I couldn't imagine her being "terrible".
This little girl is so bright and full of life. I can say that I don't ever recall having a conversation with a two year old that where I could completely understand every single word and it all made sense- that is until today. Let's just say it has been decided that we are going on a picnic and there are a lot of people coming as well as some animals. It will be a blast and I can't wait.
What a fun time we had today. Little H jumped and bounced on the trampoline, ran in the yard, played a little soccer, sprayed some water, went on her swing, and than had some cake. The reason for the photo today is that ~H~ will be turning 2 very soon and well it just had to be captured. I could take pictures of this little girl all day long and not get tired of it.

Look for yourself at all the fun we had.

Sneak Peak- What a Gem!

I had the chance to do a family session on Saturday night for my cousin Jessica, her husband Denver, and their beautiful baby girl Ruby. What a sweetie she is. She has this most amazing laugh, you know the one where they laugh from their belly. Her whole face just lights up when Mommy and Daddy come into view. Besides meeting this little gem I also had a great time catching up with Jessica and Denver. It had been far to long. I have to admit they fed me this fabulous dinner on top of everything else and man-o-man can Denver cook. He made these brussels sprouts that were to die for- yes brussels sprouts with a coconut oil on them mmmm.

Jessica and Denver have been pretty busy themselves lately. Besides raising this beautiful little girl and being completely in love with one an other both have started new business lately. Denver doing financial planning and Jessica is helping people live a healthier life. If you want to know more check out Nature's Sunshine. After doing a health analysis with Jessica I got some supplements for myself, I've only been using them for a couple days now and I am already feeling a difference.

Enjoy the photo's

Miss P. Playing in the Dirt

So yesterday I had the chance to go into Ottawa and shoot one of my favorite little people- Miss. P! She has grown so much and doing so many new things. It's funny when these little people are put into a new environment and everything is just so new to them, they are curious about everything. I think it is a good reminder for me that there's something special in everything around us- you just have to look for it. This is a big weekend for Miss. P's parents as well, Today is her Daddy's Birthday, Happy Birthday Mike I hope it's a great one, and on Sunday her Mom is running the 1/2 marathon in the Ottawa Race Weekend, run safe and good luck.

Here's a slideshow with some of the pictures from yesterday, I hope you enjoy it.

Have a great weekend everybody.

Wedding Albums

I have spent some time lately researching wedding album suppliers. I didn't realize that there were so many choices out there. I have narrowed it down to two companies- Finao and Asukabook. I have heard nothing but good things and have had the chance to take part in webinars for both companies. I am in the process of putting together a couple of sample albums and will hopefully have them order within a couple of weeks. Both companies offer lots of choices as to size, page type, cover style, and creative design. I'm looking forward to having them in my hand and being able to share them with my customers. And as my girl Jasmine says "Everything is better with pictures" here are a couple to wet your appetite.
