What an awesome way to start Easter Sunday than with a beautiful Spring Session with the Meek Family.
Cindy contacted me as soon as the Spring Sessions were announced, she had been following my photography for years and she was excited to finally round up her family for family photos. Little did I know that this wonderful family had known me since I was a small child, they had attended the same school and church as my family.
Steve and Terri are the amazing parents of three wonderful women, Cindy, Rachel and Alicia. Rachel is married to John and they have the sweetest children, Tula and Nigel. It was definitely a session full of laughter and beaming smiles, at least when the kids didn’t have to take off their jackets.
I hope you enjoy this session as much as I did!
Have a blessed Easter Sunday!

I adore photographing off the beaten path, pulled into the wild, and inspired by my surroundings. Though Chilliwack River Road may not be far off or exotic, it definitely satisfies the itch to photograph someone in a beautiful setting. The mountains enveloped around us and a forest of tall beautiful green trees complimented Nicole and her dynamic beauty.
With a dark Red Vamp lip, and smokey eyes, Nicole came to life in front of the camera. Her personality in general is unique and those who have the pleasure of knowing her know the joy she is, her humor alone had us both laughing between shots.
It truly was a pleasure photographing Nicole, and I hope to work with her again in the future!

“All that is Gold does not glitter, not all who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost. From ashes a fire shall be woken, a light from the shadows shall spring; renewed shall be blade that was broken: the crownless again shall be king” – J.R.R.Tolkien
When the warmth of her golden glow sets fire to the winter snow, she comes alive with the power in her eyes.
I had an amazing time collaborating with Jennifer Marie last week, and in the midst of rain and snow she nailed an exceptional portrait session!
I have been watching the “Once Upon a Time” TV series, and this golden goddess felt like a page out of the old leather book full of folklore.

There are people you meet in life that are infectious; their laughter, stories, and personality invite you in and you leave feeling as if you have met your newest best-friend. From our first dinner consultation Christina and I had a blast, and when their engagement session arrived the same beauty and pure joy shone through when Kyle held her in his arms.
They floated effortlessly around the engagement session; an honest giggle turned into a warm embrace, and moved into a tender kiss that was like a delicate dance between two intertwined souls.
Their Spring wedding is going to be amazing, and I am so excited to document it for them, they may just be my favorite!

I had such a great time photographing Henry and Joka’s engagement pictures; constant laughter and a perfect afternoon glow blessed the session, and their hearts. I am so honored to photograph this lovely couple’s 2016 spring wedding, their love is a sight to be seen, and I cant wait for May!
I am so incredibly in love with this session with Kirsten, the little Disney princess inside me is gleaming from ear to ear humming “When you wish upon a star” as I pressed the shutter.
Show your little girls images like these, ones that inspire them to believe anything is possible!
Thank you Kirsten for being a spectacular subject to photograph!

The sun was high in the city of the midnight sun. Yellowknife was a buzz as the weekend was fast approaching the Folk on the Rocks music festival, but the Thursday evening rendered some spectacular light and an equally amazing family.
Mellisa and her troop of boys came to the session in matching blues and matching smiles. I remembered the trail well and we talked and laughed from each spot we stopped to photograph at. I adored this session for the amazing connection between a mother and her sons.
Thank you Mellisa for inviting me to photograph your family photos!

Two days into my Yellowknife Vacation and I have felt so much love and support. There have been deep conversations with friends, laughter, and moments of intense creativity.
Last year I worked with Erykah on two creative portraiture projects, one was regarding Mother Earth and the second was a Levitation portrait.
Erykah is a true creative, she is an exceptional nail tech, Jagua designer, dancer, and model. Not only was it a joy to photograph her in the heart of Yellowknife overlooking Frame Lake, but it was refreshing to reconnect and spend some quality time together.
I brought my bolt of tule and lace with me in my carry on and I fashioned a dress from a white bed sheet and used the tule to create shape and an ethereal movement to the fabric as well. It’s creative sessions like these that revive me as an artist.
I hope you all enjoy this new series!
