three months old... {personal}

{and oh, so loved}

{I can hardly believe that one quarter of her first year is already past}

{she flashes us the best smiles all day long...except between 7 and 9pm...then she's a beast}

{I think Halle is her favourite person these days...don't tell Maya...she's just a tad too aggressive}

{and, I must brag on my own baby sis, who made each of the girls their own dolly for Christmas}

{Yay Auntie Em!!! You're amazing!!!}

{that's it for now...more real sessions coming...stay tuned!}

tony + cherilyn {granville island engagement photography}

This is one of those sessions that came together so nicely, when it had the odds stacked against it. The odds being 100% chance of precipitation. Not my favourite conditions for meeting one of "my" couples for the first time and documenting their engagement days. Cherilyn and I chatted back and forth  and decided to go with Granville Island as a location, simply because there are more covered options than some of her other choices. And guess what? The weather was perfect for us...no rain during our time together...the drops only began to fall as they donned their Canucks jerseys for the final photos :)
Tony + Cherilyn ~ It was so great to finally meet you both after so many back and forth emails. I am honored that you chose me to photograph your wedding. Until then, I hope you enjoy these photos and that they fondly remind you of your afternoon as supermodels ;)

snow falls... {personal}

We had a snow day today. Beautiful white flakes fell on and off all day, and we had nothing on the agenda, except to enjoy it.  My little gals were 'through the roof' excited...they went to bed last night with fresh snowflakes on their tongues already anticipating what tomorrow would hold.  Mostly they played...attempted a snowman...made snow angels...threw snowballs...got cold and wet. They let me take a few photos of the fun and I rewarded them with hot chocolate and whipped cream!

{and then it was time to go inside...which is just that much cozier when there is snow outside}
