Welcome about

I'd love to hear from you, so please click HERE to get in touch. I look forward to hearing more about your wedding day plans and details.

You have just arrived at my blog, and I welcome you!

This blog is just a place where I write about my journey as a wedding photographer, as a mother, wife and friend. 

I am an illustrative wedding photographer, located just outside Windsor Ontario.  I have a huge love of photojournalism, black and white photography, and weddings that make me cry! I don't like the ordinary, I love being different, and I put my heart and soul into everything I do.

My kids are my greatest treasure and my hubby my greatest love.

I feel that this quote summarizes me and my outlook on business....

"Always hold on to the truth. Don't let others sway your heart. Don't compromise yourself for the sake of temporal groovyness. Be Deeply Funky. Be separate from the crowd that's awash with normality, by standing on a firm foundation. Never waver in your love or faith ...." - John Fluevog.

DISCLAIMER~ normally i don't post family portrait sessions on my wedding photography blog, but this is my family, so i hope you don't mind.


this past weekend, my sister-in-law and her family, drove to Kingsville (where we live of course) for a visit and a portrait session.
normally, i don't do very many portrait sessions, because i have been mainly focusing on building my wedding photography business. when a family member asks for a session, you give them a session, no questions asked.
Leanne and i, have known each other for what seems a lifetime. i started dating her brother when i was 14 (ummmmm.... Darryl was 14 too) and Leanne was the little sister, at 10 years old. 
we're all grown up now, Leanne is married to Paul, and they have 2 beautiful little girls.
it was pretty insane having toddlers in our house again, and the mischief abounded! my dogs didn't know what to do with themselves, especially since Anika (the little one) kept trying to ride poor Simon ! HAHAHA!!!!!
the weather on Sunday was a bit cool, but we headed into Kingsville and to Lakeside Park. i love photographing families at a park or outdoors, since the kids can run off all their energy.
there definitely was no shortage of energy.
i think my nieces are pretty adorable, if i do say so myself!
Brianna is 3 1/2 and Anika is 1 1/2, and they are quite the pair.
I'm thrilled that Paul and Leanne trusted me to take their family portraits, and i hope they like them LOTS!

i do have to take the time to say, that i have the best in-laws EVER!!! i couldn't have asked for a better family to marry into, and the amount of laughs and euchre over the years, has been wonderful and truly a blessing.
you can just feel the love when we all get together. it's pretty spectacular.
