Announcements & Giveaways...

I'm sooooo excited to announce that my website is officially launched and ready for viewing!! I can't thank my graphic designer enough for her vision, and all the hard work that went into creating it. We decided a few months ago to scrap all previous ideas and start fresh with a focus on representing MY STYLE and 'flava'....and I have to say, it looks spectacular and is sooooo me.

Thanks Ms.Keshia, you KNOW I love ya.

And cause I'm just so dang happy about my website, I will be giving away TWO lifestyle sessions plus 2, 8x10's of your favorite images for you to cash in any way you want! Whether it be baby, family, maternity, fashion portraits of YOU, whatever you want, the session will be on me. ( $250 value)

So here's what you gotta do to enter-

If you already follow me, just recommend me to someone who doesn't and have them follow my blog. Leave me a comment of the person's name, and you will be entered too. And if you're new, well then all you need to do is become an official follower and leave a comment about the draw!
And IF you aren't a blogger then just send me a quick message on face book, and you'll be entered as well!! The draw will be made on March.1st- so there's plenty of time to get your name in.

Again, thanks Keshia and thank you to everyone who believes in me and my talent. I'm fortunate to get to do what I love, it hasn't been an easy or short road but soooo worthwhile. I am growing as a photographer with each session, and always aware of what a blessing it is to be the one you're trusting to capture the authentic you.

No ordinary woman...

When Keshia and I talked about her upcoming maternity shoot we both agreed that there would be NO baby blocks or hand hearts...nope, none of that for this girl. Keshia is a dynamic woman and so it would only stand to reason that her session should reflect that. So we combined some soft window light & gorgeous angles to show off her sensitive side and then headed downtown to throw in some rockin' urban as well.
Thanks for the opportunity Keshia, you're a perfect example to all women that pregnancy can (should) be sexy & fun....xoxo

Cupcakes, Sunshine & Tears??

It didn't start like this, in fact we couldn't have asked for a more perfect day...


Photobucket


We started our session at the most delectable cupcake joint in town- Crave...yummmy..and they were even kind enough to let me take my camera behind the counter for some delicious shots.
Afterwards we made our way down to fish creek park- the sun was shining and little Ms.Chloe & her gorgeous mommy were vibrant. It was such a treat to photograph the ever so creative & talented Bree- you truly are an inspiration to me. Many of you know her well, but in case you don't, here's some adjectives that pop in mind- stunning ( obviously), genuine, real, strong, and driven. Love ya girl.
We ended the session with some colourful studio shots, and where little Ms birthday girl decided that we were the meanest people in the world for taking away her (fifth??) cupcake...
Which made the PERFECT last image, don't you think?
