sheldon + karen {victoria family photography}

This was such a great session for me! Firstly, because it finally happened. This was one of those sessions that just got rescheduled over and over and over and....you get the picture. Thankfully, Karen + Sheldon were as determined as I was, and a couple days before Christmas we got blessed with this beautiful day. And when I say beautiful, I mean perfect: bright, with just enough clouds to prevent any troubles. I met up with the family in the morning, and they brought me to this fabulous location: an abandoned railyard! The mix of brick, and wood and history was so awesome. As is this family! I have totally enjoyed getting to know them a bit through our church, and their beautiful daughter has even babysat for our girls.

So, to all four of you, thank you for being so patient and also for being so fun! It is obvious that there is a lot of genuine love and laughter in your home and it was a privilege for me to take your photos!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

bryce + ali {love story: winter wonderland}

I love these two. Bryce is Steve's youngest brother, and Ali, his wife is our sweet sister-in-law. A few years back, when I was in the early days of our business, learning and practicing, Bryce + Ali volunteered themselves to be my guinea pigs. And, they faithfully gave me the pleasure, once again this past week. Steve's folks recently relocated to their new home, a beautiful property on the outskirts of Vernon. As we drove there through the winter wonderland on boxing day, I knew I must have a chance to play with my camera and these two in the snow.
Bryce + Ali ~ thanks for helping me get my fix, for being so adorable and being such great friends and family! Love you!
