Well we did it and we made it to the top! On Saturday, March 15 we made an early push for the summit and our whole group made it to the top. We battled crazy headaches, low blood oxygen levels and remained in surprisingly good moods during the ascent that took 10 hours from 6am … Read More
Signing off…
It’s been a crazy last few weeks and even busier over the last few day. This site won’t updated until after March 24 as we head to Africa today. This of course is assuming that we can get out of the city with this storm! We start our hike on Sunday, March 9 and summit … Read More
A Wedding in Montebello Take 2 – Marie-Claude & Gary
On Friday we were off to the Chateau Montebello for the second time in 2 weeks for the wedding of Marie-Claude and Gary. The only way to describe the day for me was that it was like shooting a wedding for old friends. It was nothing but fun and relaxed all the way through thanks to everyone involved … Read More
Another Maternity Shoot! – Chantale
Chantale is another return client/former bride from last summer. Is it just me or does there seem to be some sort of corelation between getting married, living with someone, and having babies? 🙂 Shooting with this wacky family was entirely too much fun and there are only so many PG rated photos that I can … Read More

There is still room for April and November (don’t forget that day-light savings time was extended into November). I … Read More
Another visit with Melissa & Jason – Maternity shots!
Last summer I had a great wedding shoot with Melissa and Jason (Take a look). Melissa has proven to be one of the most “photographically fanatical” people I have met and as a photographer, this is something that I can only admire. Our maternity shoot yesterday was as fun as expected as you can see from the … Read More

Mt Kilimanjaro – Getting closer…
So it’s just over 2 week until we leave for Mt Kilimanjaro and about 3 weeks before we actually start climbing. We’ve had a few months of preparation and we’re feeling relatively confident about our potential success. Our only unknowns now are the effects of high-altitude and the weather. So what does one do to prepare … Read More
Valentine Engagement Shoot
What better day to do an engagement shoot than on Valentine’s Day? Once Sui and Eric got over the guilt of making me work on this most sacred of days 🙂 , everything went perfectly. It’s a long way until October but I look forward to seeing you both in Calabogie this Fall! Don’t ask how … Read More
