I loveeee LOVE ya’ll!

This shoot celebrating these babes was the perfect mix of autumn, golden light and blue hour 🌙. Alysha and Matt, I couldn’t feel more excited and honored to capture your love story. I love your sense of adventure and your adoration for all things each other and nature. I have no doubt your big day is going to be a freaking blast! 😝 Congrats lovers! 😘

Happy Friday pals! 💃

I’m excited to share Part 1 of Darci and Michael’s engagement which was shot on her parents incredible farm in the rain.

These two are freaking cute together and I am beyond excited to photograph their big day next year (squeeeeal!). Thanks to these two for having me and for oh so happily embracing the rain. Nothing is better than having clients who can truly make the best out of any situation. I can’t wait to share Part 2!

Introducing Mr. And Mrs. Betteridge!

Nothing makes me happier than witnessing this beauty become a wifey for life (with no returns!). The amount of thought and intention put into this day was incredible. The first look and private vows took place where Tyler proposed, and the official ceremony was held in the comfort of their backyard. 💛

These two love cocktails and fine dining, so the venue choice of @dallayeg for the reception and @doscrestaurant for some fun portraits made perfect sense. The company, the food, the drinks made for one perfect evening for these two. I feel so blessed to have been a small part of it, what a freakin’ blast!

Thank you Bronwyn and Tyler for your trust, and for just generally being stand up humans and so fun to be around. ILU!

I think the best part about my job is being able to literally fall in love with my clients, and let me tell you - these two hold a special space in my heart. 💛

The simple beauty of this day wrapped up in a blanket of hugs and love in the best way I can describe it. I loved every single thing about the day, and I hope it was truly the best day yet for these two angels. 🫶

Conway and Stacey are married!

I know these two are so adored and loved by everyone, I’m sure there are many people waiting to see a few shots from their day. From the moment I met Stacey I knew she was special, she had a sweetness to her that can’t go unnoticed.

These two have the kindest and softest love, and I truly hope these images portray that. Congrats to these amazing humans! Thank you for having me along for the ride. 💛🫶 @hoodiestan @conwaykootenay

More sun-kissed evenings amongst the sunflowers please! ☀️

I had the best time with these two cuties, the weather, the GOOSE, the champagne - it all came together so perfectly. We had initially planned to go to the corn maze but we changed our minds to shoot at @greenthumbkidssherwoodpark and I’m so glad we did! This spot is amazing, especially at sunset! The owner was so lovely. Thank you so much for having us! 👏💛

💛 Happy birthday to my other half 💛

Chris hates attention in any shape or form, so I felt like this was a great way to embarrass him publicly 🤪

But in all seriousness, I am so happy you still put up with me and I’m so grateful our daughters have an amazing man like you to admire and look up to for their entire lives. I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: you’re the best choice I ever made in my life. I love you beyond measure and hope you feel so loved today. Hopefully the boys play some extra pranks on you today at work 😉

Happy birthday punk 😘 @ceemers9

Special thanks to my buddy @jessicastormpictures for shooting these photos for us! Photos of Chris and the girls have historically been a favorite of mine and this one’s a real beauty. 💛

Morganne and Aaron, your day is what urban wedding dreams are made of 🫶 In the short time I’ve known you, I truly feel like I’ve known you forever. “Kindness” was the resounding word from the day, and I couldn’t agree more. Your kindness radiates like the sun in these images. Thank you for sharing your light with the world, and congrats again beauties! @morganneam @aaronkrywiak

BRB, just one blubbering mess mama. 😭

I can’t believe my baby is off to kindergarten 😭. Hugs to all the other parents and kids going through big emotions this week as school and sports resume. It’s been an amazing summer, but we are ready for new beginnings. ✨💛

The shades of parenthood too are merely fleeting m

The shades of parenthood too are merely fleeting moments.

That kaleidoscope of frenzy and quiet, of harmony and discord, of vibrancy and exhaustion, whip us every which way. The winds of parenthood sometimes silence us. The challenges humble us. The joys elevate us. (By Anna Olson)

Forever grateful for my dear friend in these photos @jessicastormpictures @jstormsmit who joined me this year at many weddings. You filled my days with so much joy, humor and love…I adore you so much! 💛 Thanks so much to @wildfig.farm @nurse_natalierose for allowing us to spend Q time with your sheep and goats! 😝💛

There’s something about seeing a dear friend absolutely glow on her wedding day ✨

There’s something about seeing those tear drops fall, something about seeing the stress release after the ceremony, and something about the magical waft of bubbles through the air 🫧

There’s something about seeing people move through adversity with strength and courage. Theres something about a love so strong it pushes on, even when things get hard and life throws curve balls your way.

Sending so much love to my girl @nicolebrusnyk and @mikeybru_. You two are perfect for each other. I love your love so much! 🫶💛

I’m finally getting around to sharing some cutieeee snaps from JD and Taryn’s big day!

This day was so much fun - from exploring the buffalo jump and the wind turbine fields at sunset, these two were up for anything. I love JD and Taryn’s sense of adventure and it was amazing getting to meet their adorable daughter Madden 💛 Thank you two for having me, and for putting up with all my requests including hitch hiking and getting some cardio in on your day! 🤪 @j__zak @taryn_breanne

I also want to shout out to the owners of Sweet Haven barn - thank you for adopting Jess and I into your family. We felt so loved and taken care of in your space, and I am certain every couple you host does as well. Everyone needs to go give @sweethavenbarn a follow and shout them out to your newly engaged pals!
