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!

I don't know what was with me the week I photographed the Walker Family, but I was super emotional. Maybe it was the kids heading back to school, or well hormones (can I write about that on the blog, or is that a classic over-share?) However I think have good reason to feel a little deeper when photographing this family. Natalie and Jeremy were one of my first clients here, I photographed their wedding. Then, I photographed Jeremy's sisters Richelle's wedding to Joel. Then I photographed Natalie's sisters Steph's wedding to Bob. Then I photographed Bob's brothers wedding. Then I photographed Jeremy and Natalies's children and Natalie's work photos and some Bella Photos. Then Steph's pregnancy and their daughter Olivia's newborn photos. 

Do you follow? 

So, when Joel and Richelle recently moved back to BC, Natalie took on the task of getting everyone together, including both her and Jeremy's parents.

This family means so much to me. Not only have they been great supporters of what I do, which I always appreciate beyond words, but they are a family that role models taking care of each other.
 So, when I had them all together, with their beautiful growing families, how could I not be a little emotaional? 

xoxox walker and clan - you are well loved around here !
