About Me

Hello and welcome to my photo blog. I am Karen McKinnon, a Vancouver Island based photographer - a gal fortunate to be living my passion. The blog is where you can see recent sessions, keep in touch with what is new around here (and I promise you it is never dull) and get a better sense of who I am, what I love and how I show it. 

Thanks for visiting. Please leave a comment and let me know you were here - it really does make me smile!

One:
There's a lot of people I want to be when I grow-up and the writer of the Simple Mom is one of them - check her out, she has good things to say about living green, living love and family life - and does it all in a down to earth non-preachy way.

Two:
I was floored by how many people read the recent McKinnon Photography newsletter, and how the enquiries for the photo courses and Bella Sessions flooded in. Exciting! Thank you! 
I just booked Bella Sessions for a woman in her late 50's, a mother of six, a woman whose husband is serving for the military overseas and someone surprising her fiancee on her wedding night -  each person brings with them their own story - so inspiring.

Three:
Bethany and Luke : Bright eyed. Adorable. Warm. Interesting. Outgoing. Engaging
I photographed Bethany as a babe and it was wonderful to have her back in the studio with her little brother. This was a very special session as I adore seeing the same children again.
I was drawn to these two classic photos. Simply beautiful.

Beth is as lovely as ever and still looks like her mom. Luke is adorable. They both look like they were having lots of fun.
