A stolen kiss between newly-weds on their wedding day. A quiet moment between mother and baby. The inside jokes between people who have been friends forever.

These lovely ladies allowed me to capture true friendship. They were very in-tune with eachother and they made my job so easy. Here are some more images from our session last week....

Emilie surprised her friends with a photoshoot as both a keepsake to remember their years together at UVic but also to celebrate their friendship.

The girls know how to rock a photoshoot and they looked absolutely amazing! They came prepared with four different outfit changes so we could have some variety and we took some photos not only around the campus but also around Victoria! I loved how well they connected with each other and how much fun they had all day.

Thank you Ladies, you rock!

Love this one:

Here are a few of my favorite images!

It certainly wasn't the best day for a photoshoot but they braved the cold and we got some good photos. I had a lot of fun with this family, here are just a couple of my favorites!

I photographed little Ethan last year and was very excited to meet his family at Fort Rodd Hill for some new photos. I have never photographed there before but it was magical, lots of little places to photograph as well as some amazing colorful leaves!

I had a rained out photoshoot this morning so I took the time to design a few Christmas cards. Every card is customizable with the photos I take for you and specialty designs can be made for you if you have a specific idea.

These first few designs can be a flat 5x7 size or they can also be a foldable card with a 5x7 front and a blank inside.

These designs are meant to be flat, but could be made to be a folding card as well.

Of course it rained the day we went out, so I took some last week instead. I finally had some time to edit them and here are a few....

He says he looks "goofy" in this photo. But I guess it is hard ot look normal in a jumping shot!

It can't be easy being married to a photographer who takes your photo all the time! Thanks Babe!
