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!

This, right here, was my last session of the year. Fitting, as it is a sign of what 2011 will bring -

F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S-N-E-S-S

January is pretty much booked with fabulous family sessions, newborns and maternity and the summer wedding season is incredible. I mean, really incredible, with great variety in people and locations.

Justine and Phillip scooped my last summer wedding date (note I still have a few spots available in the fall and possibly the spring.) and like finding their location of Strathcona Lodge, it all fell into place perfectly.

While they were here visiting from Nova Scotia we managed to squeeze in an engagement session and get to know each other a bit. I adored Justine from the moment our disjointed phone calls and phone tag started and when I met her in person she was just as fantastic as we thought she would be (nice move Justine!.)

Both her and Phillip are doctors who met while in med school, with the way they laugh together, I can see how their senses of humor helped them survive the trials of med-school and will take them far in life. They are both crazy nice, fun, stunning and ever so patient while I ran them around in the rain.

I collaborated on a little special project for this engagement session, but it won't be done until the new year, so check these two out now, and you can see more of them in January.
