My Favorite Husband

This weekend I had the honor of having a mini session with my wonderful husband of 10 years! He was a good sport and even though we stuck around the house to take the photos, we got some stunning head shots. And, you know, he's a pretty handsome guy!
Recently, he's made some huge changes in his lifestyle and I couldn't be or proud! I am so thankful to call him my husband and the father to our three wonderful children!
He was quite proud of all the compliments he's received from his session and he's already talking about his next session. I think I have a happy customer! :)

Shining Star

This is my daughter. She makes me smile every day, always doing things to make me laugh or catch my attention. She recently started to actually want me to take pictures of her. After all, when your Mom takes pictures of every little thing, one kind of gets tired of the cameras.
Yikes. I kind of feel like the paparazzi.
Luckily, they all still love me and let me snap away and I hope one day they will appreciate all the moments I have captured. <3 p="">

A Little About Me!

I think I've filled this blog with a lot of information about my work, my prices and packages and information about what I do. What I realized is that I haven't told you anything about the girl behind the camera!

I have been married to my high school sweetheart for 10 years, he is a wonderful father and supportive and loving husband. Together we have three beautiful children who make us laugh and smile every day! Quite often they inspire me and help me in trying new props, backdrops and ideas I have for future sessions.

Because at the moment my photography is a part time job for me, I also run a day home. I enjoy helping kids learn and grow with imaginative and creative play. Sometimes I think I have more fun with the projects and crafts that we do.

I am a shy person, even though in the past 5 years I have become quite a bit more outgoing than I have ever been. I think I am pretty funny, I love to make people laugh. Since I was about 14 Marilyn Monroe has been one of my idols and pretty much anything to do with old Hollywood and the glamor of that era. I don't get to sit down and watch too much TV, I'm kind of a busy body but my favorite show is Saturday Night Live. I am hoping late this year when I travel to New York with my best friend I will get to cross watching SNL live off my bucket list. I also love hosting parties and get togethers!

Most of all, I love photography, but I think that's a given. Since I was a kid I had a camera and took so many pictures but it wasn't until about 5 or 6 years ago where I really started to think about it as a career! In 2008 I bought my first SLR and it's been a learning experience since then. I've taken Basic Film and Digital and Intermediate Photography courses at SAIT and I plan to keep growing and learning as photographer. 

This year, I turn 21.....just kidding....I am actually celebrating the first anniversary of my 29th birthday ;) (sshhh, let's just keep that between us!) I believe that 2013 is going to be a great year and I look forward to creating beautiful memories for all of my fabulous clients! Thank you all for the support, it means a great deal to me.
