pacey

my pacey dog was sick on his birthday...in fact he had to go to the vet and be put under to clean out a brutal ear infection, on his birthday.

the kids were quite distraught about the ear infection..and the fact he had to do this on his birthday , feb 20.

just letting the world know that "maker" is back to his lovable self and has finished his drops and pills as prescribed.

thanks for your thoughts and prayers for the pooch..and us! :)

photographers making a difference

0 comments
one of my dear friends in the industry, elizabeth soergel, who moved to the okanagan a year ago, has taken on an incredible project.

for every portrait sitting she books, she is waiving the sitting fee ($200 value) and asking parents to donate $100 to the kelowna general hospital kids ward project. what an amazing gift to the ward and to families..the gift of portraiture while giving to an incredible cause.

here's a link to her site to find out more... - children of the okanagan.

if you are in the okanagan or have friends and family in the okanagan, please have them contact elizabeth. she does such amazing work and captures family and children with such magic.

again, you can reach her at her website - www.okanaganphotographer.com

below is the article she was featured in, in okanagan life magazine.

some watertime for caleb :)

0 comments
so on friday night after our rad MB potluck together, caleb was going to get baptized.

he had told j monday that he thought it was time he get baptized. j asked why and caleb said to him, well cuz it said so in my bible reading today and i want a new life.

so fast forward to friday.

caleb shared why he wanted to get baptized then we all prayed for him..then upstairs we all went to our ensuite tub. :) j baptized him and caleb decided he needed to go back down again..such a funny kid.

and i guess after we all went back downstairs, caleb said to j, "dad, high fives...i have a new life".

pretty much i cried when j told me that.

our kids rock. sigh.. :)

erin + pete

8 comments
this last weekend one of my best friends got married.
funny thing - i introduced them to each other.. giggle. :)

it was such an amazing day..everything was so lovely.
my dear erin was absolutely breathtaking..i was in tears
for a better part of the day.. i was so very happy for her.
pete did awesome during the shoot - he can, at times, be
a little apprehensive in front of the camera..but with him
totally into his new wife, it was not hard to get great shots
of them both!

and of course, i couldnt' wait to post pics so here they be!
and i couldn't just blog a few..i blogged a bunch.. :)
so grab a coffee and enjoy some highlights of their day!
