Little Taylor turned one in May, and her mom and I have been trying to arrange a session ever since. Between cold weather, colds, naps, and other such things, it took us a while to get it together! Finally, one beautiful evening in July (Canada Day to be exact) we were able to meet up for some fun pics around town. We ended the evening by watching Taylors daddy play baseball, and then us grown ups, my hubby included, were able to enjoy the evening on the Ginters patio to end the night. These guys will be moving to B.C at the end of the summer, and though we don't visit nearly enough as it is, I am going to miss them like crazy!

Alicia and BJ

July 15, 2009 // Wedding

The morning of Alicia and BJ's wedding I was afraid to look out the window as I rolled out of bed. The weather in June had been undesirable, to say the least. All I wanted was a day with no rain. I covered my eyes as I pushed the blinds away, peering between my fingers, with just one eye open, I was so relieved. SUN! Amazing.

I started out this gorgeous day with a nice drive and a cup of tea, excited to be out on the open road, with a wedding before me. I had a great day with Alicia and her bridesmaids, and later on with BJ and the rest of the wedding party. Alicia and BJ didn't seem to be the overly emotional types, so it was extra special when they teared up during the ceremony. A little tug at my heart...

A special thanks to my friend Amanda for coming out to be my second shooter for the day!

Here's the long awaited sneak peek of Alicia and BJ's big day!! For a few more photos, a short slide show can be found here.

Brandon - Graduation

July 8, 2009 // Lifestyle

Brandon's mom Irene contacted me to do some grad photos of Brandon around their yard. I don't think he was too thrilled about more photos, after having some that day with another photographer, Janet Haslem, in her studio, but he went along with it anyway. I had a fun time with him and the rest of the family. They apologized for their craziness at the end of it, they must have forgotten my husband is one of them! I'm used to it!

Brandon will go on to school in the fall for diesel mechanics, and further more on to great things in life. Dwayne will miss having him to go snowmobiling with, but at least his dad Vern will still have Dwayne to keep him company out on the trails. His mom Irene can cook for Dwayne too... if she needs someone to mother, 'cause I'm sure not very good at it!!

Congrats Brandon, and best of luck in school and your life ahead!

Go here for the complete slide show!

I was planning on posting more photos, but my website doesn't seem to like me tonight, so you'll have to check out the slideshow!

The Hamm Family

July 7, 2009 //

This family is as beautiful on the inside as they are on the outside. These are some of the most well behaved children I have ever photographed. I sometimes come home from photo shoots and tell Dwayne we are never having kids. After an evening with the Hamm's and their 7 children, I left with a completely different opinion. Thanks to all of you for making my job so easy.

Thanks for the session, Kara! I am having a hard time deciding which ones to get. Decisions, decisions! You did such a great job...I love how you captured the "feeling" of our family. BTW, I never even wanted children before becoming a follower of Jesus Christ...He is so good to have changed my mind and blessed me beyond measure. What a treasure I possess in my husband and children :)
