Merry Christmas to me!!!

I spoiled myself! hee heee
I just went and picked up a new lens... 85mm 1.4. Whoo hooo!
I have wanted it for a bit and it finally came in! Now I am just waiting on my D3. OK enough with the technical talk...For portrait's it is kick a**.
Here's a few picture's of Echo in my office. I had just picked her up from the groomers and she looked sooooo pretty I just had to try my new toy out! Excellent results!




If anyone is looking for a dog groomer you HAVE to use the Bandbox. They are located on 17th ave and my dog LOVES going there. Michele is a professional dog groomer and really knows her stuff. I highly recommend her and her staff!

Matt and Megan..

I had a blast with these two!
This was the first time they had their picture's taken by a professional photographer and they were great! We had a ton of fun and they looked fabulous whatever they did. I may have to call these two out in the spring to have a fun shoot "for me" and drag them around the city to a couple of spot's I have been dying to try out.
Thanks for trusting me..the results were awesome!!!




Rachel & Tapan

Rachel is the sister of Lianne who's wedding we shot in October. We were so excited to hear that they were going to get married also! Here we did some engagement shot's for them...Rachel even had her henna done.
These two are so in love and they enjoy each other so much...it was so fun to photograph them! You guys are perfect for each other and I wish I could be photographing your wedding in India...congrats to the both of you :)





A sad day.....

A couple of weeks ago we sadly had to put our furry child Kane down...he had a degenerative spinal disease and he was no longer able to get up. His antic's will be missed...he was always up to something. Good or bad.
This Christmas... hug and kiss your loved ones and don't forget what Christmas really is about and how much everyone means to you.
I am sure glad I have so many wonderful photo's of him to look back on..I am sure as time goes on it will get easier.

CHRISTMAS DEADLINES

The cutoff date for all enlargements, cards and album prints is December 12th.
Anything after that date I cannot guarantee it will be ready before Christmas.
Thanks everyone for a fun and successful year!

GAP ad or what??

Kaila is such a little cutie..we had such a great family shoot but this is all I am going to show..hee hee!
I loved her outfit and when her attention span ran out we pulled out the lolly pop!
That's what I do...get them hopped up on sugar then send them home :)
I love the colors and I had so much fun, thanks guys !!!









Brayden...

It's hard to post picture's this time of year because so many of them are Christmas gift's...
I did get the go ahead with these one's though!
Brayden was such a great guy to photograph, he was always smiling and doing whatever I suggested ... I couldn't believe my luck!He could recreate a monster truck sound perfectly, I kept asking him to do it because it sounded so real! haha
He has got the most amazing eyelash's...that's what I want for Christmas...Hear that Jeff ???





Kids will be Kids!!

While we were doing a large family shoot we gave the kids a break and they had a great play in the leaves...I love how carefree kids are!!!
Doesn't it make you want to get in there??

Sweet little Bailey

Last time I saw Bailey was about a year ago and she is sure is growing up and turning into a beautiful little girl.
She has such a sweet nature and I just loved photographing her while she played...
Rumor has it she's about to be a big sister next year!!




Finally...The O'Neil Family

How adorable is Teagan?
She is the cutest little girl ever!I LOVE LOVE this first picture of her...
We had a great day at Confederation park, the weather was beautiful as was the fall colors!

My best friend..




Here she is...Kari-Ann. I took her picture on Friday night and this one just jumped out at me. This is her in a nutshell...
fun and thoughtful... I thought this picture captured her spirit.
We alway's laugh so much when we are together ( and get into trouble!!) and I am so proud of her for working so hard to meet her goals!
You look fab and I love having you in my life!
Keep going girl...I know you will get there:)

The convention....

I had a great time out at the PPOC Alberta convention in Canmore...we had some wonderful speakers and I learned so much and came back sooo inspired and full of new idea's. I also had a lot of fun hanging out with my fellow photographers/great friends. I love the fact all these uber talented photographers come to inspire and teach you all the things they have learned!
I bought a little point and shoot camera ( ..wow is it small) to take with me. It's the size of a deck of cards so it's really handy to catch some embarrassing shot's of people...including myself! I thought I would be nice and not post some of the really crazy one's because I know they would take revenge upon me :)



Our view in the morning... Taken with my point and shoot..

We got a little skiff of snow...I had flip flops on! brrrrrrrrr

Claire Cocheme and the blurr is Stephanie Cragg....STAY STILL!

At the bar! Me, Kat, Claire and Steph..relaxing after a day of learning!

Linda, Steph and me! Looks like we had to much coffee!

All I can say is YIKES! Someone must have spiked my drink with Red Bull. Who knew my eye's could go that big???

Hear no evil, Speak no evil, See no evil!

How pretty Claire is!

....and finally...ET go home!!! ha ha
