Hope all my fellow Barrie residents were able to get out and enjoy the day; we had a great evening at the downtown festivities & Promenade Days. Gavin thoroughly enjoyed the rides and games, and the rain actually held out until 8:30. It was a little soggy for us to stay for the fireworks, but we made our own fun with sparklers at home! Lucky us too, that we were able to view not only the main Kempenfelt Bay firework show from our bedroom windows, but also the ... Read Full Story
Just a little dose of daily life. It's very rare that I have to wake my chipper little early bird up in the morning, but it was a school morning and getting late. Amazed he was still sleeping after I opened his blind, I just had to grab my camera. I'm glad I did, because I also captured his latest "wall art" - a throwing game with points taped to the wall that we worked on together for a good hour, me drawing the circles and filling in the points, hecare...

I couldn't be more happy with the Mini-Sessions I held for the Momstown Moms yesterday! The turnout was great, the location, Downtown Barrie's hidden gem, The Richmond Manor B&B even dreamier than anticipated. To top it off, I was blessed with a perfectly overcast sky -to a photographer, this translates as no harsh shadows and lush, saturated colours. The whole experience was worth every one of the 23 mosquito bites I received (seriously, they love me!)... Read Full Story
I fell in love with this huge maple as soon as I drove up to this house. I had the instant idea to shoot the baby laying underneath it and hoping the parents would be game. Lucky for me, they were more than game, and loved the idea! I love open minded clients -you make my job so much easier & more fun!
First-time Mom, and couldn't be more enthralled with her new little man.
Baby S was a sleepy little guy; he didn't give me much in the way of e... Read Full Story
It's plastic, it was in my neighbour's garage sale, and it's now one of the most precious items in my whole house. This is the first thing my son ever bought me with his own money. When I saw that my neighbour across the courtyard was having a garage sale, I could see the rows of kid's toys and tried hard to keep my little guy occupied indoors for as long as I could. I envisioned him going over there & falling in love with at least a dozen items, his f... Read Full Story
How *not* to pick up a cat:
1) wrap arms around cat's belly
2) yank upwards
3) repeat step 2
4) repeat step 2 a few more times, laughing so hard you can no longer hold on to said cat
5) follow cat as she loses patience and tries to walk away (notice paw braced against the couch?
I must add a disclaimer not to try this with just *any* cat; Sam is an unusually tolerant and patient little thing. Btw, he never was successful in picking her up. Read Full Story
I couldn't wait to go through these; it was a great event. A little chilly, but definitely a success. Thank you to all the families that took part & thanks especially to all the great, exuberant kids who make my job so easy & so much fun!

Introducing Baby J; my youngest client ever. This session was a gift for the parents from good friends located all over North America -what a great gift! They were more than excited to use the gift certificate -so much so, they called me to shoot the morning after they brought Baby J home! Lucky me! And, lucky them to have such a beautiful little girl.
Show me the bling! We had a lot of laughs getting this shot; proving Baby J will be rais... Read Full Story
Thank you everyone for the quick response to this special event! I'm happy to say the event is completely booked up. Fingers crossed that we still have some yellow heads blooming -if not, it will be fun to capture all the little ones blowing the seeds around! Might have to rename it "Dandelion Wishes"!
I was so overwhelmed at the response to this offer, that I'd love to make available to you the opportunity to host a similar themed, (or non... Read Full Story
