Why I love photography

Sylvan Lake

  This past weekend I went out to visit an amazing friend and spend time with him and his boys.  They live in a town about two hours from the city and this town is right on a lake, it's stunning!  To be able to go out for a walk five minutes away and see this, just wow! 


The first night when I arrived I learned the carnival was in town and away we went.  I went on a few rides and then the ride to end all rides for that night, one which made my stomach extremely queasy but I said I'd go on the Zipper the following day, what was I thinking?  I know this next photo is a blur, but this is how the guys looked when they got off this ride, yup... I wasn't thinking and looked the same when I got off the ride the following day!  Lesson learned. 


Abbie found some new training wheels while we were away...


And here are the guys who opened up their home to me, thanks guys I had an amazing time while I was down for a visit.  I appreciate your hospitality immensely, you're all remarkable people with hearts of gold!

Just Dance

I am still laughing about this one my oldest son Shayne sent me...
I think many of you can relate! 

EXTREME PHOTOGRAPHY



And one photo from the 25th anniversary I shot photos for on 
Saturday night, this was way too cute! 


Yup... just dance!

A Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss

It's interesting how busy my life has been, with taking this summer off after 
completing my degree I thought I'd have tons of time on my hands...
nope, not by any means.  I've been so busy but doing things I want 
to do which is fantastic and I'm having tons of fun! 

Hmm lets see now, two weeks to catch up on...

I spend time with a girlfriend I hadn't seen in ages, I met her 
when we were in our early teens and reconnecting with her 
after not seeing one another was absolutely amazing!  She was 
my maid of honor when I got married the first time so I have 
photos from way back when, the bottom photo is us last weekend. 


I've enjoyed spending time with my precious granddaughter as well...
I went with her and her daycare on two fieldtrips this past few weeks 
and had tons of fun! 


The first one was to the Telus Science Centre...


Then Elyssa spent a night with me, I wanted to take photos of her with 
her sunflowers I've planted for her and as you can see they're way taller
than she is!  We also went out to the splash park and had tons of fun!


And a few days later the next field trip was back to the same 
splash park, twice in one week which Elyssa loved! 


I've done one photo shoot for my cousin whose sweet precious 
baby girl is only two weeks old...


I spent an afternoon with friends out at a lake not too 
far from the city, a short 20 minute drive and now that I 
know this lake is there I'll be visiting more often.


A few of my friends and me out at the lake...


And today was a 25th wedding anniversary photo shoot which 
I've decided not to even start looking at the photos tonight, 
if I start now I'll be up the entire night... I know myself and my 
photos so tomorrow's another day. 

I'll try to get back into my blog so I don't post two weeks at a time, 
and this isn't all I've been up to... yup, as they say a rolling stone 
gathers no moss and no moss growing here!
