Jennifer & Bill

Another image of Jenn & Bill from a couple of summers back. The day threatened of rain but it managed to hold off all day & it eventually cleared for a fine afternoon!

Brodee & Sarah

I have been itching to get to this site for a long while to shoot a portrait session. Luckily Brodee & Sarah fit the bill perfectly. I did however, feel like rookie. From slipping into the cold frigid water & getting wet feet & dropping flashes in the fresh powder & icy waters. Everything beyond that went smoothly.  

The reflection of the light in the water gets me – it looks like it could be moonlight – the starburst behind her knee tops it all off. Check the image out in a large format to appreciate all the details – thanks, CPie.

Maddex

Keeping away from & keeping up to Maddex was super fun & there is no better way than to spend a care free evening in a serene environment.

This is going to be such a fantastic event – looking forward to the games & the closing ceremonies – good luck to everyone!

Sarah & Brodee

A fun shot, but serious looking, with Brodee & Sara. They allowed me to stretch my legs in a bit of creative freedom. This is by no means an original idea or concept; I have seen many versions of this with all sorts of different variables. I was attracted to the symmetry of the scene & the serious expressions only lend to the overall mood & tone of the day. If it had been a blue bird day I may have asked them to say “cheese” for a toothy grin. Their smiling faces would be an interesting juxtaposition against the dark run down building.

Maddex

Beautiful blue eyed boy.

This was one of the few times he wasn't chasing me or moving about.

Burnt River

I squeezed in a walk the other sunny afternoon on a great piece of property known as the Dahl Forest here in the Highlands. The Forest is a 500-acre private conservation area and has waterfront on the Burnt River. here for more details of the property: http://www.haliburtonlandtrust.ca/dahl_forest/dahl_forest.php
I have been hatching out the minor details of a canoe trip on the river this summer – thinking it will be the first one I take my son Parker on - can’t wait!
