Since I've Been Gone

I have recently updated my blog and since I haven't been around for quite awhile, I hope you'll take a look around.  Since I've been gone, I've learned more and more about photography, my style, and editing.  Things are coming together for me and I hope to make this passion a much bigger part of my life.  I went through some periods of doubt, thinking I would never be as good as so and so professional photographer, but I finally realized that it's not about comparing myself to others, but to do what I do and enjoy it!
So as I continue to learn and grow and come into my own, I'll keep on posting from sessions I've had, share things I'm learning and just enjoy photography!



Love my little sweetie's toes!

Baby Number 4

My sister in law Tanya has just had her 4th baby girl!!  I am so excited for her and their family.  I got a chance to go over and take some pictures of baby Taryn when she was just 3 days old.  It was so fun and I feel like I got to try some new things.  I want to learn more about newborn photography! 
Here are a few of my favorites!!

Baby Boy Cake

I got to make this cake for my friend Erin when she had her baby boy Miller. 

Trish and Allan in Grande Prairie

My mom and Allan came up to visit this week bringing with them tons of stuff for the baby and while they were here we thought it would be fun to take some pictures!  They got here on Friday and the weather was so beautiful but we didn't have time to get out.  And then Sunday came and we had such strong winds that most of the amazing leaves were blown right off the trees!  Despite that, we went out on Tuesday and found some pretty great venues for photo oportunities.  I think they turned out lovely.

The Smiths

The Smith family came over to my place for a little photoshoot.  I don't have very good light at my place, but we still had a good time and got some pretty good shots.  Thanks for coming over guys, your little family is so cute!

Nick and Sarah

I got the chance to hang out on a beautiful fall night with Nick and Sarah.  They are wanting some pictures for their Christmas card, but I think we got tons of cute pictures for many occassions!  It was lots of fun guys and you are too cute!
