Category Archives: Blogroll September 1st – fall really seems to be in the air! I have an outdoor session scheduled for later today and one for tomorrow, but it is threatening rain. I always encourage my clients to book early – because once this time of year comes around – it seems like we run out of days...

What a gorgeous self-portrait Marlene! You look so glamorous!  On August 13th I had Kas, Lorraine, Blake & Kaylee come in for a family portrait session. Kas is my ‘go to’ guy for all things computer related! I’ve been using his services for over a year and couldn’t be happier. Whenever I have a problem I just have to call him and he takes... by admin 2 comments

You don’t! You take them all! Now some people might call these ‘Lifestyle’ photographs, but these are MORE than that! You have control of the lighting and posing even though it doesn’t look like you have posed this family. Now THAT’S what professional photography is all about – making it look unposed when you have actually guided people into position. They’re NOT just ‘snapshots’ like all the ‘cheap and cheerful’ photographers out there claim are ‘Lifestyle’ photography. You have captured the relationships in this family perfectly, and I can feel the warmth among the family members. How lucky are they to have had you as their photographer!

Thank you Inge. It takes years to learn all the rules of composition and lighting and how to use your camera – and once you’ve perfected that – you can break the rules! You’re right – these photographs didn’t ‘just happen’ – I guided each and every ‘pose’ and know how to use window light to my advantage!  On June 28th I braved the sodden grass and mosquitoes to photograph the Oswald’s on their yard out in the country. Erwin & Norma and family came into the studio for family portraits on their 25th and again on their 45th wedding anniversary. Now they were celebrating 50th years together and they asked me to... by admin no comments  I’m not much of a cook – I used to be – when I was growing up in a family of 7 siblings and my parents. I was the second oldest child, and at age 12 my job was to bake a batch of dinner rolls each Saturday – about 6 dozen at a time!... by admin 2 comments

It all makes my mouth water Marlene! … and what do you mean you aren’t much of a cook?!? You have cooked for me and I’ve been blown away! Keep up the experimenting… that’s how you create new and wonderful dishes. On a scale of 1-5 yums, this dish looks to be a 5!  Last weekend I made a whirlwind trip to Vancouver to see my nephew. He’s been living and working there for about a year and absolutely loves the views in and around Vancouver! He asked me to come out and photograph some of his favorite views for wall decor in his home and office. I... by admin no comments |
