Miss New Caledonia

This was the first shoot I did in my new studio for my gorgeous sister-in-law, or should I say she did for me LOL! I wanted to practice some high key shots, but I really love all of these! We had a super fun time and took so many amazing pictures! I had more than I could edit at the time. So here are some previews of my favorites from this collection that I'm just popping out now :)

Firework Mania!

Happy Canada Day to you too! Decided to get out of the routine of spending July 1st in Steinbach and drove down to Vita, Manitoba with my Dad. We heard there was suppose to be an excellent firework show there this year.

We parked a ways away as with any party-ish event. We loaded up our gear and began scouting for a good location to shoot from. We found a spot on the edge of the field, but were soon chased away by the mozzies, who didn't care one snit we had deep woods on. Plus, we calculated that we may be under the fall out according to the direction of the wind anyway. So we packed back up, and moved to the pavement where we met some friends. They had some citronella candles burning so we decided to join them. All this took about an hour until the show started.

The fireworks began and there were cheers from all around. Oooo's and Awww's abundant. It was a great show and I was glad to try my hand at collecting some good firework shots. I took about 100 photos and these were my favorites.

Driving out to Vita was definitely worth the trip!

Grad 2011

Wow! My little brother is graduating this year, time flies so fast! We had a fun photo shoot in the park today as the sun went down and then finished in the studio. Thanks for letting me attack you with a camera, bro!

Gettin' Down

Delivered my first set of child portrait shots and what an adventure! Dumb summer construction! I had to walk 3 blocks in high heels to get to their house; that'll teach me, next time I'll suit up with some Sketchers for my deliveries!

It was an awesome fun shoot! The one year old was a bit shy but had big gorgeous blue eyes! The two girls were totally into it and loved creating their own poses for shots. Caught a few nice candid ones too during the mischief. They loved being in front of the camera and I loved taking the shots.

In fact, Jenny told me they were asking to come over again the very next day. I love my job! Here are a few of my favorites!
