Once again, I can’t express how much fun we had at this wedding and it didn’t matter that it rained non stop for 12 hours or that it was foggy and freezing out, everything else disappeared and what remained was the love and the joy and the happiness of these 2 people and their precious family.
As they are in Africa right now, they are scheduled to come back for vacation and we plan on doing another shoot then, and I for one can’t wait.
I had a fun but busy weekend and it ended up with me being sick as I think I got sun stroke from being out in the sun all day Sunday.
I got together with a couple of my fave photog friends on Sunday and we had a fun shoot with a sweet gal Aimee. Young and beautiful and up for anything, and oh so pleasant to photograph, as you’ll see. Wanted to say thanks to Bon and Shelly and a special thanks to Ricky who gives the best directions and got me to my next shoot super fast and with no problems, thanks Ricky!!
I have many to edit but as I get busier and busier I’m afraid I’m going to get slower at posting images. I will try not too though.

It happened, I knew it would, it was only a matter of time before my little one slid along the ground and scratched up that heavenly face of his. His brother and him managed to collide and Nik somehow kissed the ground with his nose and elbow. Poor lil thing, he looks like some experimental halloween makeup gone wrong,lol. I’m thanking God that it wasn’t worse though.
As I tried to take pics of said scratch, he kept making funny faces, and I then turned those into a collage,lol. He’s going to love me when he grows up. Oh and on a side note, I purchased a magnet for the car with a different image than usual, as its usually Lily, my lil muse, but this time I decided to put George on it. I told him, thinking he would be proud and he quickly turned red and squealed in horror and begged me never to drive by his school as God forbid any of his friends should see the magnet, I didn’t expect that already, he’s only 6. How could he be embarassed yet, that doesn’t happen til they get older, does this mean, he’s getting older??? Say it ain’t so…… Guess that means my lil one is getting older too, they grow up way too fast.
and the middle pic again, cuz I love it, but I took his scratch away.
Just one, I really like this shot and wanted to post it.
My thought for today…. Soar as high as you can, eventually, you’ll get there.
I love to cook, and I bet I’ve said that before on here, but its my blog and I’ll say again and again I’m sure,lol. So here are a few treats I’ve cooked lately. Rice pudding, french toast, and oooo so yummy funnel cake!
What a week, the germs have hit our house with a vengenance, its been crazy. First hubby had it and then our oldest got it and then our youngest and then me. It was really horrible and the house suffered too as I got nothing done with everyone being so sick. We are all finally better, I just have a nagging cough still, I hate coughing.
I even had to reschedule 2 shoots this past week, and I’m itching to get out there and shoot again as I’m bursting with ideas and feel like I’ve been held back with this nasty bug in our house.
I’ll make up for it in the coming weeks, there is so much going on and I know as the summer gets closer, it will get crazier and crazier but I’m looking forward to it, as I think it will be a fun, crazy, but definitely a fun summer.
Leaving you with just one image today, as I go back and start editing the images from the wedding I shot. The happy couple are now living in Africa and we had such a nice chat while going over their order the other day. It was my first time using skype and I even got to see her for a bit on screen, I must say I love skype, it was so wild and very cool to talk to someone so far away. They get to jump in there pool daily and we are still freezing over here, I need to go visit them for a vacation,lol. This is one of the bride’s fave shots and I’ve been playing around making new logos, let me know what you think of this one, and I used colour cuz I wanted too, not that it goes with my branding but because it looked purty,lol.
Really sick this week, will catch up soon, but here are two shots from Enza’s shoot, first one is of Enza being Enza, and the 2nd is of her beautiful sister Giulia.

This is the last of Lily and Anita’s precious lil family. I’m already anxious for the next one, even though it may be a little while as they live in Ottawa,lol. Until the next time Anita, thanks for letting me take pics of your cute and smooshy family,lol. Will be sending out the images soon.
What a fun filled day. Our lil boy turned 3 and we had a nice little party for him with some friends, food, and just the most awesome looking little einstein rocket cake (made by Claudia from Cakerific http://www.cakerific.blogspot.com/).
My husband freaked out when he saw the cake and I even took some pics of his reaction, it seriously was awesome, the detail she put into it was beyond amazing, but of course Nik kept grabbing towards the cake and eventually he got Anni’s arm and her pigtail too,lol.
Here’s a few shots from our day.
