East Coast Fall

I was privileged to get the chance to visit Peggy's Cove this past week. It truly is one of the most beautiful spots in Canada.

This time I came prepared! I packed up my gear and headed out with a good friend. We grabbed a Tim Horton's coffee and went for a drive.

The view was something else. It was the first time I have ever experienced the East Coast in Autumn. The colors were unbelievable. I usually only get to experience seeing yellow (maybe some orange) leaves in Calgary, but in Nova Scotia it was a beautiful array of Yellows, Oranges, Reds and Greens.

We arrived at the lighthouse on Margaret's Bay, enjoyed our Tim's and the view. The lighthouse had just recently been resurfaced and it looked spectacular. It is so majestic, a sight I would never get tired of looking at. Just look for yourself.....

Hope you enjoyed checking out my quick little adventure :)

Three Amigos

"Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of friendship, you really haven't learned anything." -Muhammad Ali" 

 These three amigos joined for some photography fun. They were all so full of energy, sass and they sure had great style. Loved the boots ladies!

Angelic April

 Ms. April could not look any better pregnant, so radiant and angelic. She is going to be an incredible mommy and I am so excited to meet the little misses or mister.
Here are a few of my favorites from her photo session

Ms. Heather

With Valentines Day fast approaching, Heather decided some boudoir photos would make the perfect gift for her husband. She met up with me, the very talented make-up artist Sheri from Sweet Cheek Make-Up Services, and a wonderful hairstylist named Aylah. We had a few laughs as Heather told us her husband was growing concerned someone had stolen his favorite basketball jersey. Heather had hidden it so she could wear it in her photo shoot.

Thanks Heather you looked stunning!

Oh Canada...

I recently made a trip out to Halifax, NS to see two very dear friends of mine, Kara & Catheryn. What a welcome I received! They are always so accommodating and go out of their way to make sure everyone has a fun and enjoyable stay. 

We had a most delightful lunch followed by a jaunt down to Peggy's Cove, one of Canada's most magnificent sights. It literally left me breathless. The air was unbearably crisp but the sunset on St. Margaret's Bay was one I will never forget, it completely warmed my soul. Peggy's Point Lighthouse stood there so tall and stately, and reminded me of our national anthem. I felt proud to be standing there, and sharing that moment with my two friends. I was a little sad I didn't have my camera with me, but I was fortunate enough to capture a few shots from my iPhone. (Thanks Kara's for the wonderfully unique photograph of me beside the lighthouse, photo seen below.)

If you haven't had the opportunity to visit this wondrous place, it is a must see!!! I will for sure be returning, and this time with my camera gear :)

Lihue, HI

Mid January I got my first taste of Hawaii. What a spectacular place it is. I stayed at a remarkable hotel in Lihue on the island Kauai. The scenery was unbelievable.

A few of my fellow crew members and I decided to pitch in and rent a car. We wanted to see what this island had to offer. A wrong turn lead us to the opposite side of the island we were planning on visiting.
None the less, it was still beautiful. We ended up finding a little hole in the wall diner and having a decent breakfast. We eventually made it to the North side of the Island where we stopped at Anini Beach and then down to Hanalei Bay. I have never seen such beauty! On the way back we stopped in Anahola for the best fish tacos EVER. This certainly won't be my last trip to Hawaii...

It's a...Bump!

I had the privilege of shooting Erynn's maternity photos. While anxiously awaiting to find out the gender of this bundle of joy, the nickname "Bump" seemed to stick around. Erynn has discovered she will be welcoming a "Boy Bump" this April. What a lucky guy he is to be joining such a wonderful family, with a very anxious big brother and sister awaiting his arrival. Thank you Erynn, I can't wait to meet him!!
