Princesses in the City

This is a fun series documenting daily routine. Having a photographer follow you around during your outing to the grocery store, or laundromat, or your saturday morning routine, or a visit to the grandparents is a really unique and personal way to capture beautiful moments in your life. Here, just take a look at Adelaide and Audrey's adventure on the TTC! Their one hour journey from princess dance camp tells a beautiful little story. 

Consider having me follow you around one day doing whatever it is that you normally do!

Lincoln & Brock

It was a beautiful summer morning when this super fun family and I took a stroll through the park and I snapped some photos along the way! Everything about these pictures makes me smile! Not only was the family so vibrant, but everything was so lush and green still. Luckily we've come to the end of the heatwave and drought! We have rain today and more in the week! Everything is about to brighten up, so we'll get one last burst of vibrant green before the leaves start to change in to beautiful autumn colours. Which is great because I was booked up for September, but since my children are in camp this week I am getting a taste of what life will be like come September when both my children are in full time school and I'm realizing that with the extra time, I can for sure take 2 more sessions. So, contact me soon if you are interested! But first, scroll down and take a look at these super sweet photos! 

Thank you! 

Fish Flies at Winnipeg Beach

The fish flies are a yearly occurrence at Winnipeg Beach. I remember the season all too well from when I was a kid. Most people aren't fond of them. They cover the entire town. The swarm of them is so big that you can see them on a weather radar. Other than blanket the town with millions of fish flies that smell pretty horrid, they don't do anything. They are literally just a feast for nature. They hatch, and then die within 48 hours. Birds that otherwise aren't seen in Winnipeg Beach come for the week long event and fill their bellies before flying off. This year seemed way heavier on the bugs than most other years. Check out some news articles like CBC or Huffington Post.

When I was a kid I thought of them more as fairies or dragon flies rather than some gross stinky bug...which they are. I loved them. Still do! I love how they are so obvious about how ecosystems operate. So I was rather excited that we were at our cabin during peak fish fly season. My girls loved them! And our pal Josh loved them as well! Josh is the son of my oldest friend that I met when I was 5 years old here in Winnipeg Beach...(and coincidentally Josh and Adelaide share a birthday!) So having our kids play together in the very place we shared our childhood is pretty special. Here is a collection of some pictures I took of our time together with the fish flies!
