I have loved a good walk in the woods for as long as I can remember. The sights, smells, and the peaceful feeling of being immersed in nature… it never grows old, never loses its appeal. Hiking is one of my favourite things – on top of a healthy love of photography, crafting, creating, and...
Marsha and Stephen’s winter wedding was nothing short of a fairytale. From the smallest details to the magical moments that unfolded throughout the day, every part of it was pure perfection. Pre-Ceremony Location | Fairmont Hotel MacDonald Dress & Veil | The Model Shop Florist | Funky Petals Sherwood Park Hair & Make-up |...
Cape Spear. Rugged coastline, the most easterly point in Canada, home of the oldest standing lighthouse in Newfoundland and Labrador, hiking trails, military history, and the perfect front row seat for shows put on by breaching whales. This photo, captured within the remains of Fort Cape Spear, was taken just moments before we watched humpback...
There is something special about a place that has such a varied landscape. Towering mountains, thick forests, rolling hills, endless fields, and those big Alberta skies. It all makes for an amazing backdrop for a photo session at sunset. This location was chosen by the L Family… a beautiful spot to capture one of most...
As I was editing M & S’s engagement photos, my thoughts wandered to what this year has in store for them. I thought about the anticipation, joy, and excitement that unfolds as you plan and celebrate your wedding story. It is an amazing time and it all culminates in one wonderful day. One of the best...
Spring is unfolding here in the mountains. The landscape is transitioning from a palette of wintry greys and browns to more vibrant colours. It is a magical time of year. It feels fitting to be here, in this time of change, to capture this beautiful couple as they celebrate their engagement and upcoming wedding. I have more to...
Years ago, I had a little series where I shared images from my adventures. Glimpses into places that I have been. Landscapes that have tugged at me to pick up my camera and capture their beauty. That series was “Wanderlust.” I’m dusting it off and bringing it back. This place. I have wanted to stand...
Spring is here and with it comes beautiful blooms. These beautiful tulips in pastel shades have their colours swirled and painted using my photographic paintbrush… my camera.
It has been quiet in this little space for awhile. I’ve been soaking in the littleness of our newest family member. Immersing myself in all the beauty of a new life unfolding. I’m talking some time to enjoy this time because — as we all know — it goes by so quickly. I have missed...
This year was filled with big and exciting changes for my family and my business. We moved to a new town located about 650 km from the place were we had made our “home.” A place where we had created connections and woven ourselves into a community filled with amazing friends and family. It was also...
There are things that a photographer brings to a session: knowledge, equipment, experience, their shooting style, and their own way of interacting with people to encourage connectedness. The most important part, though, is something that a photographer cannot bring with them. It is the spark that exists between a couple, a family, or siblings. That feeling of...
When we met for this session, it had been about six months since I had seen the S Family. So much had changed in that short time and now we were meeting again to celebrate sweet and adorable E’s first birthday. We went to one of my favourite places for photos and captured their family...
This session was very special to me. I have been photographing L since he was just a few months old. I’ve watched him grow from a newborn to a little boy. Captured his early moments, his first Christmas photos, turning one, and then two. Shortly after these photos were taken, L celebrated his third birthday. With...
I’ve made a few trips up north for sessions since we moved. I’ve been back to capture newborns, children, families, first birthdays, a graduation, and new babies on the way. I’ve connected with families who I have photographed multiple times and also met some new ones, like the L Family. Fun facts about this family: they...
This session for the Z Family was the last session that I captured before my family and I moved to southern Alberta. When I took these photos, we had recently found out that our home in northern Alberta had sold and we were thinking about making a big change. At the same time, big changes...
Oh how I love newborn sessions! Photos filled with beautiful new life, hope, wonder, and a family overflowing with love. So magical! And, I am incredibly thankful to capture the early memories of such a special time. Meet beautiful Baby R. He is welcomed by an older sister and two older brothers and a Momma...
This session holds a very special place in my heart. My little brother is getting married this summer. Very, very exciting! But, what’s more exciting is that our family has grown by two amazing people. My brother is a lucky guy! My sister-in-law to be is incredibly sweet and they make an absolutely perfect match....
