Unlike any other!












This was a wedding of uniqueness, the dress was inspiring, the hair very cool, the decor used wheat as the greens. I may be somewhat biased here but this was a great wedding. Jen and Toshinao's wedding should have been back in the flapper era.

Thank you for letting me be apart of something so lovely. Aunt Mary would have been very pleased.

ありがとうございます Toshinao とジェン、私は一緒にあなたの新しい生命にあなたが元気であることを祈ります

Whisper a blessing to a butterfly










This was a wedding of details and I loved every one of them! Larissa and Clayton did a butterfly release after the ceremony with the guests, it was an amazing sight being surrounded by all those beautiful butterflies.

We wrestled with the weather but finally we won and were able to take some amazing photos on the dock, the sunset was breathtaking.

What a fine day this turned out to be!














Brynden and Brynden but I'll call him Vin. I said smile like you mean it!!!

I had the best time with you both, the day was perfect, beautiful setting, lovely bride and the food was great. I wish you all the best and thanks for letting me capture your day. I have to say I have some of the best funny faces photos from Vin, I am thinking of going online with them, maybe make a book of it, I'll think about it.

A lovely Wedding









I had the pleasure of spending the day with Chris & Jody on July 11th. It was a perfect day for a perfect wedding. I brought with me a red umbrella as a lark to see if we could use it somewhere and it turns out that the wedding colors went very well with it.

The guys were loads of fun, I personally love this shot of them in the theater. The dancing photo turned out beautiful, this was a 15 second exposure, Chris and Jody had to hold the kiss for the whole 15 seconds - pretty sure that was not too difficult to do!

Family Photos at Train Whistle Park








I like this park, it has a caboose, railway track and big trees. Very cool. We spent an evening shooting this lovely family, you could definitely tell the boys were 2 and 3, the energy was...Wow! I wish I had half their energy.

Cute kids! Once they slowed down, I got some really nice shots

Once was lost now is repaired


Some dear friends of mine had their wedding photo damaged, I photographed it, scanned it and pieced it back together. Here is the result, I am pleased. It took me a while to do it and I took a few liberties, it is kind of like find waldo, can you see what I changed?

Truck Driver Turned Singer




Off to a sod field north of Stead, the photo shoot is a success, the sun is shining, the birds are singing, the truck is stuck and we have no cell phone. Tempted to drive the fork lift the 10 k back to the yard we opted in waving down a pickup, they had a cell and we had service, back in business.

This singing truck driver is fulfilling a life long dream of creating a cd of his own. With a sweet sound of blue grass, the old time gospels are sung out with a happy heart, I can't wait for my copy. The photo shoot is for the cd cover, I am thinking this is gonna look good!
