The Most Beautiful Family, EVER!

I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph a family that I met at The Good Shepherd Ministries. We met at 10am on a very chilly Saturday morning...the coldest morning it has been so far, I believe. I could go on and on about this family and how wonderful and beautiful they are, both inside and out. I just hope that I captured that on "film". That is my goal and purpose...I walked away from this session feeling great and very accomplished.

This picture shows the true essence of their family. I had just finished up taking some shots of the mom and we turned around to see this...all the kids playing and horsing around....with the younger two ganging up on their big brother and he was just loving it. I told the mom that I wanted to come and hang out at their house as it seemed as though they have a lot of fun together. And her response was, yes, we do laugh a lot....there is a lot of laughter in our home. This may not be the most perfect portrait, technically speaking, but to me...this photograph is priceless! This is WHY I do what I do. I can not express in words at the moment what this family did for ME! I came home with a renewed sense of hope and peace.

REACH Caregivers- Taste of the Town

Last Sunday, October 5th, I had the wonderful opportunity to photograph Taste of the Town, a fundraiser for REACH Caregivers. Check them out Here.

I had a print in the silent auction that was sold for 70.00 (it's the flag with the cannon one) and 2 of my luminary prints sold as a set in the live auction for 150.00. It was neat to see the SMALL bidding war going on for my prints.

I am just grateful that I was able to use my talent to give back to the community.

Not the Bride of Frankenstein

I had an awesome opportunity to do an E-Session (engagement session) for a super young (compared to me) couple!! They were so much fun and were willing to appease me and some of my quirkiness.

We lucked out before we left Renfrew and got to use a bus. To you and me, it's just a school bus, but to them...it's where it all began.

Here is an out take from the session...and it will explain the title of the post. I literally laughed out loud when I saw this pic!

And a few more serious ones....
