A Contest — Favourite Scripture
Posted on July 12, 2010
I just love traditions and each year I get to combine two of them into one! Every year in May I go out to RBG and local orchards to photograph flowers, my Mothers day gift is that they come with me! I also create note cards from the image each year.
This year I am asking for some help in picking not only the image but a scripture that will go with the image on the card. So leave your favourite image number along with your scripture suggestion in the comments, the winner will get one package of 25 note cards featuring their selection.

Floral’s & Decor
Posted on June 21, 2010
Just sharing a few from a recent shoots. The first set of images were taken at the Queens Landing in Niagara on the Lake. Angelica from Simply Beautiful described this wedding on her blog MUCH better then I could have. Here is an excerpt from her recent blog post;
” The bride chose olive green crushed satin linens, which fit well with our chocolate brown chinaware chairs and the stunning gold napkins. The flowers for the wedding were designed by Pauline and Mandy from My Bouquet and were made up of vibrant green hydrangeas and a beautiful mixture of cream flowers. The enchanting canopy was also designed by My Bouquet, the bride and the groom sat under the canopy during the reception, with their family tables close by, I absolutely loved it!”
I loved the canopy too. Very unique!

The following beautiful wedding decor is again by Angelica and team from Simply Beautiful Decor and very talented Jennifer from Vintage Design Company. Club Italia in Niagara Falls was the venue for this wonderful combination of floral and decor talent. Champagne linens, satin napkins and the silver charger plates were beautiful alongside the stunning floral arrangements.
The backdrops provided by Simply Beautiful always blow me away;

Another recent visit to Prins Grow Greenhouses, this time to shoot the statice for promotional material and a image (or two) for the truck. Shooting flowers just never gets old

February 27th Wedding – Florals & Decor
Posted on March 15, 2010
The following images are from the wedding I recently shot. When you have such stunning florals and decor – it gets its own blog post! The floral decor in the images below were created by Pauline Vanderkuip, Mandy (the bride) and the team at My Bouquet. The ‘Simply Beautiful’ decor (IE linens) were provided by Simply Beautiful. The location was Covenant Church in St.Catharines and the reception was at The Old Court House in Niagara on the Lake.
Stunning……









Wendalane Farm
Posted on September 10, 2009
I enjoyed a wonderful morning the other week up at Wendalane Farm. Part of the farm is dedicated to ‘God-Grown’ (organic) flowers. I love flowers, I love colour, I love shooting – needless to say I enjoyed myself (too long perhaps?).

Wedding Florals and Decor
Posted on August 20, 2009
I’ve really been enjoying my work with My Bouquet and Simply Beautiful this summer. We’ve captured some of the most beautiful florals I have ever seen and gorgeous linens and elaborate decor at some of the finest Niagara venues! (I will add that the owners of these businesses and their staff are the BEST people you would ever have the opportunity to work with!)
These images are from a wedding at Chateau Des Charmes in Niagara on the Lake. Florals by My Bouquet and decor by Simply Beautiful.

This wedding reception was at Inn on the Twenty in Jordan Village. Florals by My Bouquet.

Prior to the reception the ceremony took place in the vineyards at Cave Springs in Beamsville. I thought it was stunning! Total elegance!

Smithville Christian High School – SDCH
Posted on May 18, 2009
I’ve been shooting at Smithville Christian High over the last few weeks taking images for their promotional material. I’ve had the pleasure of capturing Boys Soccer, the cast of the drama production (The Mouse that Roared), Chapel, Creative Arts evening, the Community Choir as well as regular student life. I’d like to tell you that it makes me feel like a teen again – but nope. I have enjoyed it though!





Someone in the back is hiding from me

Two Sisters and a few Amaryllis
Posted on December 2, 2008
These girls are so cute (and were very well behaved!) Lots of wonderful images of them and a few of the Amaryllis they grow and are currently shipping out of the greenhouse. I think the 4th image of them will be a all time favourite of mine.
