I'm blue...

I can't believe how bad I have slacked in the blogging department!! Actually the picture taking department also. I am still here...don't blame you people who have left....I have gone through a very rough time over the last little while. I don't get very personal on here and feel I need to save this blog for the business aspect of things. But what I can tell you is that my wonderful grandfather passed away a couple weeks ago after a very short battle with cancer. On top of this I am also dealing with some other things so it has made for a very poopy month or so. I have no urge to pick up a camera right now....it stares at me everyday though...lol. I am hoping once some time passes I will start feeling better and get back into the swing of things...but as of right now I need to take care of myself:)
I hope everyone has a safe and Merry Christmas!!!!! See you in the New Year!!!!
XOXOXOX

Takin er' easy...

OK, So I just realized today that it has been A LONG time since I posted. I have fallen behind with this blog thingy but still super fast with the turn around of my pictures!lol. Not too sure if anyone even reads this...if you do then sorry I have been MIA. I am trying to finish up what is on my plate right now and I am going to take a break from being so busy. NOT from taking pictures...just being sooo busy that I feel like all I do is sit in front of the computer:) I am super tired lately and hope that it will pass soon:) Hope you all understand:)
(I will try posting some pictures.....I think I have some to post from a couple weeks ago at least..my bad)

Client Albums

Ok, I have now caught up with some of the technology on here.lol. I have posted a link to my clients albums. (on the right) From now on this is where your pictures will be!! I will still post some on here but it takes FOREVER to upload....so this is my solution! Enjoy!

Stephen and Melissa family...

I went to elementary school with S!! And here I am taking pictures of his beautiful family! Small world! It was another awesome fall day outside. I tried to coax little E with candy but didn't work so well. Note: E doesn't like Mike and Ikes!lol. All in all it was another successful shoot. I got to meet another great family! I love this job!
Here are a few from that day:) Enjoy!

Sweet kids.....

These kids are super awesome!!! I had so much fun photographing them!! Some of these pictures are the due to the power of candy.lol. It is amzing what you can get kids to do for 5 cent gummies:) I am so glad to have gotten back in touch with their mom...thanks to wonderful facebook. Your kids rock Suz! Thanks for a fun day in the leaves!
Here are a few from that day......hope you like them:)

I can't.....

Upload any pictures!! The last 2 days it has told me the site is experiencing some problems...hopefully they will be fixed soon!!


I braved the cold today (so did a brave,brave family.lol) to take some pictures. It was the fastest shoot I have ever done:) It is getting too cold out.... and I don't have an indoor studio. What will I do this winter??I hope the weather holds up for another couple of weeks...so I can get all my bookings done!!
Pray for nice weather!!!

Meet Charlie!!!

Isn't he the cutest little thing?? I love him! My sister and brother in law decided to extend their family this past weekend and I don't think they could have picked a cuter dog:) I went over there on Saturday to take some pictures of him playing...here a a couple I got of him actually sitting for a split second.....did I say that I love him yet?

untitled...

I took this picture today.....I don't know if its because its so late and I have been super busy all day with pictures but when I went through the pictures I did today I absolutley fell in love with this one!! I think it is hilarious!! I love the smile on the baby's face and how everyone is looking at him. Just something about it makes me smile:)

(here is a little peek M&S.heehee)

Robyn,Owen and Austin

What a great family!! They were so much fun to photograph...it made my job super easy!!
We had a great evening,once again,and I think they turned out really well:) Robyn is a friend of mine ,(my friends are the best customers!Thank you for all the support..btw.lol.)You have a beautiful family...can't wait to meet the newest addition!
Hope you enjoy them!!

*sigh*

Today was not a fun day. Stressful to say the least. I tend to stress out about things waaayyy too much. I have fixed my sizing problem but feel not so good about it:( Live and learn I was told today. So true.
I just got home from an awesome shoot and think that I have redeemed myself.(hope so anyway.lol) Stay tuned and you shall see:0)

Graham,Diane and Family.

What a beautiful family. Diane is a great friend of mine (so happy to have you my life girl!!) and such beautiful person,on the inside and out:) This was my second shoot that evening so I was on a role! Despite the loss of light half way through they turned out great:) I tend to gravitate to this park but I love it and find there are so many photo-ops ,every where! I hope you enjoy them!!

Beautiful Family....

Jay,Shawna and Hailey

This was my second time shooting Hailey. She is much bigger now and has the sweetest personality.Her parents are so much fun which made the shoot easy...and fun! Shawna had some great ideas ( I LOVE when people give me ideas...just a little FYI) These are your pictures:)
On a side note.....
I am going to call this shoot "The Poop Shoot". I showed up to the park beforehand to scope it out. I set my camera bag down and within seconds a bird came by and pooped on my bag. I didn't notice so I went to pick my bag up...you can imagine the mess.lol. So later while I was taking some pictures I noticed a foul smell....I had stepped and kneeled in dog poop. I couldn't stop though and miss my photo op:) The things I do..sheesh.lol.
I hope you enjoy your pictures!!!!

What a cutie.....

I am BUSY!!!!

Oh my Gosh...am I EVER!! I love it though:) Just wanted to let you all know (there I go again with you all.lol...I know of only a couple people who read this) that you will be getting pictures back in 1-2 weeks. To me it seems like an eternity(heehee) but I just can't edit them fast enough:)
Thanks for understanding!!

Michelle,Andrew and clan.....

What a perfect day for fall pictures!!! The weather was awesome......the leaves were falling. What more could you ask for? This isn't the first time I photographed these little munchkins....back in the day when I was amateur(LOL) I took pics of them:) (they are my family...really they are) I loved how these turned out! I hope you like them guys!!!

PS.....

Ok, so it has been a couple weeks since I got Photoshop CS3. It is not my best friend. We fight often.lol. it is driving me insane!! I look at some of my pictures and think I could do something to that...but then am I a photographer or a graphic designer? I know,I know, I should just suck it up and learn all these wonderful things PS has to offer me and my photos....I am just trying to find excuses not to use it. Everyone's doing it,right?
The set of pictures I am slowly working on will have some PSCS3 pics(lol) I can't wait to see if there really is a big difference....there should be with the amount of time I am spending on them! OK, vent over....back to the grind:)

Emma the "the dancer"

I made Emma a TuTu today......This is now her new favourite outfit!! She danced in it all afternoon!! She wants to spin and spin....

This evening we watched Dancing with the Stars and every time they danced she would throw her tutu on...and when it was commercial she would take it off.lol. Then on again when they started to dance. What a girl. And just to clarify...she isn't a ballerina...she is a DANCER! (according to her) :)

Laura and Family....

I have just recently met Laura, I can honestly say that this is the start to a great friendship! We always have so much to talk about and we are always on the same page:) Her kids are a riot!! They are so full of personality!! I had a great afternoon with you all!!! Here are a few from that day! Hope you like them:)
