Planning for Summer – A Trip to the Greenhouse!

Today we spent a good part of our morning searching out the best plants to grow in our garden. We visited Bradford Greenhouses in Barrie and found a great selection of plants. We also found that everyone else thought that today would be a good day to plan their gardens as well! Despite the busy crowds we found some great plants and had a blast.

On our way to Barrie we took a road we hadn’t take before and came across a forest of trilliums. For those of you not native to Ontario– these are the provinces’ official flower, this means no picking them! I have never come across so many in one spot. When I was a young girl I do remember coming across a few in our hike and remember feeling like we had to be so careful around them because we weren’t allowed to pick them! This forest was simply beautiful and they smelled amazing!

All in all we had a great time together this morning and I took my camera out to get some greenhouse shots. The greenhouse was filled with so much colour it was amazing to see. I am definitely looking forward to summer now. (warning there are lots of images!)

The Dosso family brought out their A game at their family session this past week!! 🤩 They were an awesome family to photograph and went along with playing all the fun games we play at sessions!

One thing I try to remind my families is that these sessions are meant to be fun! You get out what you put in. You get to just be present with your loved ones and get pictures taken while doing those things!

While we do still get the look at the camera photos, the real joy comes in just being present with one another. And that’s when the beautiful as you are photos happen!💗

These summer nights really don’t last so if you would still like to create some new joyful family photos, send me a DM!

Here’s some of my favourite images from our time together, as always, there’s more to come!🤗

I have a couple more recent sessions to share here! First up is this awesome extended family session! 🤩

Two days after travelling altogether in Europe, this family journeyed back to Lethbridge and met up with me to capture some memories together! They are all separated a bit by distance so time together is something to be cherished and grateful for!

Here’s some of my favourite images from our time together! 😍

Hey!!👋 I’ve been procrastinating on this post! Why?! It’s my 2500th post!🤯 When I started this account however many years ago, it was to share cute pictures of my kiddos and what was going on in our lives.

Never did I think that this is where those cute pictures would bring me! ☺️

From weddings, joyful moments, sad moments, growing families, graduations, engagements and all the important events of your lives, you have graciously invited me to play a small part in it.

When we moved west almost 3 years ago, it was a huge leap of faith. God had placed on hearts a call, or in this case, a push. We knew he had more planned for us. We knew he had healing and restoration promised for us.

But at the time, it was hard to trust. Everything was new. We didn’t know anyone!!

Time and perspective are tricky words. In my experience, they have been painful words but also words that hold blessings. We have been in #alberta now for almost three years, and looking back I would do it all over again!

We are continually grateful and continue to be stretched and I’m glad we leaned into the unknown and the hard!

My business has grown and it has been all thanks to this wonderful community out west!💗 I love hearing each story, spending time with you all, capturing so many joyful images!

So here’s to my 2500th post 🤗🎉🥂

The rain did not dampen Jean and Ryan’s wedding day!! The joy could be seen and felt all throughout their day!!💗

Earlier last week I reached out to them asking if we had a rain plan, to which they quickly secured the @lofteventslethbridge for all their formal portraits! What a great place for some beautiful portraits safe from the crazy sideways rain!

I experienced a first at this wedding! I’ve photographed dozens of weddings over the years and I have never seen a more dedicate group of groomsmen! Ryan’s guys agreed to shave their facial hair in exchange for monetary gifts to the bride and groom!😂 When the threshold of $1,000 was reached, they upheld their end of the bargain and the facial hair was removed! 🙌 Be sure to scroll through to see before and afters!

It was such a great day filled with love, joy and laughter! I’m so excited to share more!💗

I was fully prepared to share way more than 20 images from Natalie & Brock’s engagement session, but Instagram won’t let me! So here’s my favourites (but I have more!) of our time together! 😍

June 19th is an important day for these two and so we scheduled their session on this date and their wedding next year is also planned for June 19th! It was such a joy to spend time with this lovely couple and to find new favourite spots at #popsonpark And this time no rattlesnakes were spotted!!🤗

As always, there’s more beautiful images to come! 💗
