My little furry family.



 This is the love of my life. He supports me, encourages me, and has my back through thick and thin. It may sound cliche but he is my best friend and I will always love him. Christopher you are my everything. And your not that furry... I promise!


The is French Fritz. He tries to talk to us ALOT but we never know what he is saying. He yells at us when we are eating Tuna, and he steals chicken off our plates.  He tries to rule the house and loves to chase Louie around.  Although he ruins our furniture with his claws, we still love him to bits!


And may I introduce you to King Louie. Even though Fritz chases him around the house and he is the definition of a "scaredy cat",  I still think he is majestic like a king. He loves feet and we tend to trip over him in the morning. Louie is sooo furry and probably the biggest cat you will ever see... well besides the fake image of the man holding his 50 pound orange cat that everyone got over e-mail in 2001. He is my love bug.


  And last but not least its my little kickstand, bum thumb, cinnamon bun, Silvia. I have never had the chance to raise a puppy until her. When she came home with us, I immediately understood why people put pictures of their dogs on their desks at work and why people talk baby talk to their puppies and refer to themselves as "mommy" and "daddy".  She is obsessed with her tennis ball, loves to walk on her hind legs,  and we spend almost every minute together. She is my baby and she makes my heart swell.

  My family is super important to me. Though some can't speak as well as others, I get cuddles all around and each can melt my heart with a bat of their eyes.  I love you guys!

Hello Naveigh Clara Grace!

This is my cousin Amanda and her husband Steve's first baby. Amanda and I grew up so close to each other. I still remember playing barbies until we were in grade 9, but we would never admit it at the time especially when our Dads teased us in front of cute boys.  We have had so many great times over the years and she feels like a sister to me. It is lovely to see her growing as a woman and starting a family now. Naveigh is adorable and I love her so much!












Is it strange that I love to photograph a baby crying? Its not that I love seeing a baby in pain or discomfort, but I think its the emotion and "life" that is captured with a cry-filled scream.







One more scream!

The Wigelsworth Family


I love watching families grow and I feel especially special when I get to follow their growth. I photographed Kyle and Brandy's wedding a year ago and I was so happy when i got the call that they had a baby and wanted to come back for more pics. Because it was so cold, we were stuck indoors in my studio but they brought some fun props and cute outfits and it was great to re-connect with old friends. Heres a few of the shots:

Erica & Gavin

These two kids made me laugh!! Gavin is such a coy ladies man and loved running around my studio with his endless energy. Erica is a polite, young model in the making. I love photographing kids.
