Elegant Wedding – Feature

elma — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 12:57:47 +0000

Sometimes the most amazing things happen when you least expect them. This month some of my wedding images were featured in an article in Elegant Weddings and as part of an ad for some of the wedding vendors I work with in Wedluxe. It is always exciting to see my work in print, it just makes me smile to see all the hard work by myself and others shared with so many.

The ad in Wedluxe featured images taken for both My Bouquet, a wonderful florist here in Niagara and Simply Beautiful Decor, both are vendors I work with frequently, in the Niagara area. The images selected for the ad in Wedluxe were from Nicole’s wedding. It was a wonderful event and so elegant with the white and gold.

The feature in Elegant Weddings also paired my photography with floral design by My Bouquet and the Decor from Simply Beautiful Decor. The images used for the add and feature in Elegant Weddings were from Mandys’ wedding, such rich and beautiful colours for a fall/winter wedding and so fun to photograph.

Beautiful Beamsville Family

elma — Mon, 19 Jul 2010 23:37:52 +0000

I love my job, for many reasons, but the biggest reason is that I can watch families grow and change. In June I had the pleasure of photographing a large family group, it was a birthday gift for their Mother. Although I was meeting some of the families for the first time, it was the second time I worked with S&J and their boys. I am beyond excited that we were able to coordinate a session for them in June!

The other reason I love my job is that each session is unique. This family session took place on an amazing property overlooking Lake Ontario in Beamsville. This location is unique and adds to their images making them special to them. If I had to have a favourite rite moment, and trust me the entire session was fun, it was that at the end the kids got to jump in the pool with their clothes on!

Vacation

Back to PINECLIFF for another week of great times. Aside from a day or two of less then great weather, it was awesome – and NO HUMIDITY (unlike the heat wave Niagara has been having). The kids had lots of beach time, tubing and of course campfires every night. It just wouldn’t have been as wonderful without our good friends there to share in the fun. Natasha loved it all, especially the swings and driving the boat. Pinecliff is always an awesome memory!

Turning One

The prefect session. Perfect. Such a fantastic milestone to capture too, turning One! Truly one of the most joyful little girls I have ever met. She makes me want to shoot one years olds every day.

Fabulous session M&J and baby C – so glad we made it happen when we did.

Class of 2010

elma — Mon, 28 Jun 2010 23:35:31 +0000

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of shooting a few grade 12 Grads. Had a great time and was able to play with some new gear and try some new things. You will note these images are very ‘processed’, lots of photo-shopping and textures with these images but I love the results we got! Thanks Grads for your patience and being good sports and …

CONGRATULATIONS! I want to wish you all a future filled with possibilities and many Blessings!

Disregard the Eleventh grader in the center!

I spent a lovely afternoon catching up with this mom and shooting her new little man (on Day 11). He was 9lbs 15oz at birth and easily filled out my hats and diaper covers. It was great to meet him and see the family again. Be sure to click here to visit their last session, because its always cool to see how kids grow

thanks to CB for always helping me come up with great scripture!

Great seeing you again ‘E’! (Hubby and kids too of course). Lets do this again when baby ‘B’ is One! (I will see you before then LOL)
