The only reason I get up at 5am…. Ok, truth, I’m an early riser…..but that means 6 or 6:30am. Not 4:45am. 😬 So why then, was I up at 4:45 a week ago with my laptop turned on and coffee brewing? Mother loving camping reservations!!! In Ontario. 7 am reservations in Ontario means I’m up […]

In my world, people who can complete a 12 hour road trip in one day are my literal heroes. I don’t know how it’s done. My limit is about 4 hours/day. After that, I am a mess. “Whhhhhhyyyyyy is this road never-ending?” “How are we already out of beef jerky? Seriously, it’s not pretty. In […]

Want to know something sort of funny? (Maybe it’s not ha-ha funny, but still funny.) I’m a newborn photographer who isn’t really a baby person. Ok, not entirely. Your baby? I LOVE your baby. I am super into capturing all the details for you and I truly love each and every single minute I get to do […]

Ok, ok. It’s not a bar. It’s my house. But! What happens if those things walk into a house together? (Let’s be honest, they don’t walk – they arrive in my mailbox and I bring them inside with glee, but let’s run with this little joke, shall we?) Well, they become COVID faves. My very best […]

Do I dare say that it is starting to feel like a semi-normal state around here again? Yes, things are still very different. No indoor playdates, no restaurant dining, masks all the time and so much time at home. We’re still being extremely careful, but, once summer break hit and once I was able to […]

It was the last week of June 2011 and I was approximately 8 million weeks pregnant. (Or 37 weeks…but, I swear her head felt like a 10 lb bowling ball that was seconds away from dropping out of my body, so it felt like 8 million weeks.). It was a sweltering day and I’d been sitting in my […]

Camping season is finally upon us! We headed out for the first time this past weekend and after being in our home for the past 12 weeks, driving just a few hours north felt like a major vacation. New trails! New ice cream shack! New sunrise to wake up to! It was magical. We’ve camped […]

On the day Alberta announced in-school classes were ceasing (March 13, 2020), I decided that this momentous time in history needed to be documented. For years I’ve photographed my family daily, but as my girls grow, my daily shooting as slowed. They spend more time away from me and more time with their friends, which […]

Ok, so we’re all home and we’re all creating day after day, after day! Crafts and drawing and paper airplanes and paper houses. It’s all great and is keeping us occupied with our kids, but also, it can become OVERWHELMING! If your house is anything like mine, the paper and miscellaneous craft junk is overtaking […]

Every single year February and March roll around and before I know it, I’m having to think about booking camping sites and summer camps for the kids. It’s hard to do while we’re still in the depths of winter, but the reality is that if you wait too long, the good summer camps for the […]
