Barefoot on a Goat’s Path

This summer has been full of adventure. And I couldn’t be a more lucky girl for the people I meet and the things I get to see and do.
Yesterday, I was on Saturna Island, photographing their stunning vineyard and winery. It is a site to see like no other: overlooking the ocean, surrounded by rock...

Ironic

Despite August being the busiest month ever, I am finding time to stop. Set up my tripod. And take some photos for me. Slowly and with purpose.
I am getting to places where I normally don’t get to with all the shoots this month. From Saltspring to Saturna to Pender. And lots of time in the...

I’m lucky…
This week, I’ve hung out in commercial kitchens with uber-creative chefs, with people who are following their dreams, opening their own restaurants, and established places that are showing me their best work in between cooking for a full house.

Treya is three.
So we celebrated!
Happy Birthday Princess Girl. I love...

A Drive to the Country

Today was an actual ‘day off’. Which was so great and far too infrequent it seems! I played tennis, I hung in the sun, and my friend Deb and I cruised in her hot convertible just to see the fields of lilies at a teeny church in Metchosin. Just for fun. Just for the sake...

Quadra Island, Reconnection, Chocolate Eggs.

One of the greatest things about having a blog is that it serves as a wonderful diary.
This post is as much about documenting the weekend for my family as it is about sharing with friends and clients. It is a ‘weekend in the life’ type post, so it’s a long one!
Quadra Island is a great...

For all those April Fools

Every year, I try to come up with something funny to do for April Fool’s Day. And every year I fail. I just can’t get it together before noon!
But no worries.
My 10 year old nephew took care of it this year.
He had an orthodontist appointment that morning. He greeted the staff, sat in the chair,...
