Gavin is one of three brothers that I have photographed for their high school grad - he's the last one to graduate and I felt a little nostalgic while I was with him - not just because I have had the opportunity to watch him grow up, but because heading out to his families business every two years to meet the boys, is always a shoot I look forward to it. d
I don't know how they did it but this family raised three, very different, exceptionally interesting and wise men all while running a fabulous growing business.
Gavin is full of grace, he has this effortless charm and kindness. He manages to radiant confidence and a down to earth quality. Gavin, I enjoyed our session and immensely - I l left with a big smile. Thank you, and thanks to you fabulous friends! A huge congratulations to all three of you.

Oh, engagement sessions - how I love you. Let me count the ways.
- it's romantic
- you get to put on adorable outfits and cuddle
- you find your mojo in front of the camera, I know you have it, together, we make it shine
Engagement session with Lindsey and Tony? Let me count the ways I adore you.
- the muddy cow filled barn (scent included) didn't scare you away
- you radiated togetherness. I could tell by how you looked at each other, how you laughed, how you finished each others sentences, and listened to each others stories that you were sharing, even when you knew how they ended
- even as you plan a huge wedding, you are seeing so much beyond that, talking about your future and working on creating it
- Tony brought a blue ruffled 1970's suit
- Lindsey is full of adorable sass and beauty
- Together you are just right
Thank you for the fabulous evening, I am so excited to be your wedding photographer. If I had to step in a foot of wet manure (which I did) there isn't any other couple I would rather do it with!
and I had to share this one, because Lindsey is STUNNING!
Lindsey:
LOVE these!! Can't wait to see the rest! We had a blast and can't wait to share our wedding day with you - there likely won't be any cow manure puddles for you to frolick in, but I'm sure we can find something just as exciting.

When friends book portrait session I get a bit nervous - excited, yes, but also nervous. So, when Booker and Twyla, who are new friends of mine booked their session I had a million ideas swirling through my head. We needed to capture their edgy side, their natural side, their love of each other, their commitment to their family and their love of rollerderby - yes, rollerderby!
Twyla and Booker have been married 26 years and still are learning and adventuring together. From raising their two boys, to renovating, road tripping, and enjoying day to day life they are strongly connected. When Twyla (aka Ruby Whipper) fell for the sport, rather than become a derby widow, Booker (Book-'er) took a lead roll in organizing reffing for the new North Island League.
I admire them, for their commitment to shared experience and for making their relationship the heart of their family.

Carrie and Denny celebrated their relationship with a TENder Session. We met in a field and then headed out to enjoy the evening. Within the first three frames it was easy to capture their nature as a couple - it is obviously one of trust, adoration and friendship.
There were so many moments when Carrie was stealing a glance at Denny, and when Denny looked towards Carrie his eyes lit up.
These photos are just a snippet of our session, I had WAY to many favourites, so it was hard to choose - these two are so fabulous in front of the camera!
This year, photographing our TENder sessions (which were part of my Ten year anniversary, Ten months of celebration,) has been a highlight. It is wonderful to see couples, married, with children, taking time to celebrate and record their relationship. It says a lot about who they are.
