Then and Now
Remember this beauty?
She's getting bigger, but she still gives me the same look ;)
And, I loved this one of her looking up to her big sister...
I love seeing families grow.

PS--a note about availability. September is filling fast. Weekend spots are nearly full. Please contact me soon if you are hoping to get in to my calendar for a session with the beautiful fall colours. Also, a note that I'll be in Edmonton the first week in August and have room for one more session while I am there. Thanks.
Kicking Horse Family
This is a Kicking Horse family. They were married at Kicking Horse...they have a cabin there...a place where they love to go with their friends and family to do the thing that you do at Kicking Horse--SKI. So, it only made sense to have their session there.
We started out at the cabin...typical pre-ski morning before we headed up the gondola for the boy's first trip down from the top. Then, we came home for some lunch(macaroni and cheese from the crock pot). I decided that one thing is for certain--I have NEVER had such a good workout at a session ;) Before I do the next one, I have to practice getting up on my snowboard with my 20 pound backpack on. Thank goodness they all skied and were kind enough to carry the bag for me.
As a family that skis, I look at these pictures and think how nice it would be for us to have some like that. I never take the big camera with me up the hill...but, we are headed out this weekend as well(off to Panorama--our kids love it there). Think this time I'll take the big one with me. Especially if it's sunny. Love that snow and blue sky :)

Hot Off The Presses
I like real life.
Often people ask me how I get my clients to act so real. This was literally the scene as I came in the door. I am lucky enough that my clients trust me enough to just keep being real even when I start taking their pictures.
Fourth picture I took...I saw this girl once when she was wee. She wore a pumpkin hat and had the cutest expression. I bet some of you remember that picture. Well...she has grown up quite a bit since then and was so lovely to visit. She even made me a sandwich. It was a bit tough to chew(made of wood), but tasty none the less.
