I'm here to tell your story...the joy, the laughs, the tears, and the memories along the way.

Long-time clients, Steve, Melissa & Hudson, joined me at the Estevan Public Library where I photographed them during a lifestyle family session.  They have lots to celebrate…Hudson just turned two and Melissa has a ‘bun in the oven!’  I followed Hudson around as he discovered the books, trains and dinosaurs, what a cutie.  It was […]

Santa Barbara

I’ve just returned from an amazing week in beautiful Santa Barbara, California where I attended the 2014 UNITED Photography Conference! When I signed up to go a few months back, I didn’t know how impact-full it would be.  It was more than workshops and hands on training…it’s was all about community!  And let’s just say […]

Now that 2014 is underway, I’ve had a chance to look back and reflect on the past year…. 2013 was a challenging year for me personally. It was a struggle, hard-to-talk-about and heavy, with more than I thought I could handle emotionally. 2013 was successful, but I saw myself overwhelmed in some areas and had […]

You’re late, you’re late, for a very important date! We threw Scarlett an Alice in Wonderland Party themed 8th Birthday Party!  I had so much fun pulling it all together and surprisingly it wasn’t much effort.  Called in the help of Nana to bring over Papa’s pocket watch collection, bronze lawn rabbits and decks of cards. […]

Hoping you all had a chance to ring in the new year with someone you love.  We celebrated the beginning of the new year with some fabulous friends! We are 10 days into the 2014 and I haven’t broke any resolutions yet….that’s because I didn’t make any.  Nope, this year I’m just going to keep […]

I always look forward to a fresh start with the NEW YEAR! I have a good feeling about 2014. After a recent computer crash, even though it’s a major inconvenience to get a system back to what it was before, I feel like I have been granted a clean slate.  Looking forward to a brand […]

2013 was my year to step back and take a look at things…what a blessing! After tremendous growth in my photography business during 2012…my head was spinning (in a good way)!  My photography business was flourishing and I knew it was time to focus in on defining my style, creating a website and developing the […]

I loved this session with Britt, Alan and their little bump, to arrive February 2013!  Thanks for being up for trying anything.  And Britt looks AMAZING as she expects this new little one!  My vote is it’s a BOY!

I love how the Buchanan family has grown.  Lee & Jen, you should be proud of your fun-loving little family!
