This was a bittersweet moment for me…my last session before I head up to Washington. I warned Margaret, the mom of these stunning girls, that things may be a little chaotic but there was no way I wanted to miss the opportunity to photograph them. Fortunately, she was game to board the crazy train with me! Thank you for your patience and trust in allowing me photograph your sweet daughters.

The ‘C’ Family
Meet the C family. I’ve known Yanti and her family for 4 years and she’s got be one of the hardest working women I know. As the owner of the local Pizza Guys, she knows how to make a mean pizza which makes her one of the best kinds of friends a stay at home mom could have;)
Our family has enjoyed spending countless hours with her and her kids and they hold a special place in our heart. You could even go as far as to say they hold a special pizza our heart…
Canada day
In Canada, when July 1st rolls around we get all patriotic and stuff. Painting our faces red and white, eating poutine for breakfast, lunch and supper, and tuning into our favourite radio stations to listen to the most requested song of the day, “Oh, Canada.” I’ll have to say that while all those things get my inner Canadian rage on, nothing beats dressing up your best friend in a red and white flag, stamped with a maple leaf to show true authentic Canadian pride.
Big thanks to my partner in crime Jec Graham for being a good sport and an amazing model. Add a, “I double doggie dare ya” and she’s game. Another big thanks to Momma Graham for the donation of the flag, because even though we are super patriotic and all that, let’s face it, two broke college kids can’t afford a $60 flag. #shouldabeenagolddigger
the ‘N’ family
Just a few weekends ago we headed out to the Reno area to visit some of our good friends and to fit in their annual family session. Much to my excitement, I managed to convince them to pose in the sage brush, a landscape that fascinates this prairie girl. The irony is that her family runs a landscaping business!
But whether it’s a beautifully landscaped yard or a hills of nothing but sage brush, this family brightens up any location!
Noah turns 9
This year Noah made the difficult decision between having a party with his friends or going to Safari West, a wildlife preserve located in Sonoma County. Much to my relief he choose the latter. Safari West was the perfect gift for my animal loving son, not to mention an easier event to organize than a boy’s birthday party at our home. Hah! Take that Pinterest!
