Action Cures Fear. I’m still learning this! I made plans for a big exciting project months ago that I’ve been thinking about for awhile. I broke it down and created a list of action items and a timeline. And then I did almost nothing about it. Oh I had good excuses, like, […]

Ash & Twig | Brand Photography: Joylynn is the founder and maker at Ash & Twig!  She loves keeping everything earthy, grounded, simple and natural as she can. One of the reasons she started making soap was because she hadn’t found a soap scented with essential oils that actually smelled good and worked well. And […]

Meet Alyssa: Alyssa is a fun, energetic Zumba instructor and she wears and sells Zyia activewear. As a busy mom of 2, she wanted photos for her Instagram feed to show off her lifestyle and products. Our goals for this lifestyle product shoot were first to show how inclusive Zyia is – that they have […]

Love these two! I went to Boston Pizza a couple of weeks ago and thought of them – they have a mutual love of the place! 🙂 These two lovebirds have been together for 11 years. They went to  junior high & high school and graduated together! They started dating in grade 9, have been together […]

When I was young, we didn’t get off the ranch much. My dad was a workaholic, for one thing, and he loved being home on the ranch. Also, hundreds of cows, a dozen horses, and dogs and cats and chickens all need looking after, so getting away for a family vacation was pretty hard to […]

You’ve booked your family photos! The date is on the calendar. The stars have somehow aligned and you have managed to get everyone’s schedules coordinated to be together for a photo session. Now, what on earth is everyone going to wear?! The most-asked question I get! We all want our family photos to look as […]

Kyle & Kiersta at the outset may seem like an unlikely pair – a Southern California girl and a Southern Alberta farm boy. But these two are pretty perfect for each other! Kyle is definitely a farm boy, who is passionate about what he does and we wanted to incorporate that into some of their […]
