On Friday afternoon I had the pleasure of photographing one of my favourite families once again. The Mazerolle’s have been a part of the Litwin family from the day we met them and I love these guys to death, we have become great friends over the past 2 years and although I no longer do family portraits for people, when they asked if I could do them, I just couldn’t say no :)

It was a crazy windy day so our plans to get out to the park to play were scrapped we headed indoors to the most scenic location I know. This building has beautiful lines and light so I knew it would be a great place to stay warm and out of the wind.


Thanks for hanging out and letting me take some photos. It was a pleasure as always :)

Breanne and Brad were married back in June of 2008 and she had come to the realization that her wedding dress was dirty and taking up too much space so she messaged me to book a trash the dress session! When she told me what she had in mind I instantly got giddy and excited and I couldn’t wait to get out to shoot this. Brad and Brea LOVE to ride their quads and dirt bikes and Breanne’s parents live on a beautiful acreage  just out of the city where they could ride and have some fun. Knowing that spring is just around the corner and that there is PLENTY of mud out at mom and dad’s we headed out of town with the gassed up toys and went to play.

James and I had so much fin with this session and we have to hand it to Breanne because not only was she brave enough to trash her dress, but the water/mud she was standing in and getting soaked with was FREEZING cold and smelled a bit like “farm” :) It was SO WORTH IT and I could barely narrow down photos to fit on this blog, so here is a sneak peek. Enjoy.

PS- OH! and we must also give a huge shout out to Dar, Breanne’s mom. She was nervous about doing this session but by the end, she was on a quad totally getting in on the action along with Brea’s dad and some other friends!

Every year for the past 4 years we have had the distinct honor of photographing the annual YWCA Women of Distinction award winners, and every year I am introduced to women who exude excellence, grace, passion, drive, ambition and intelligence. I love doing these sessions and although they are short, I feel it is so important to celebrate their beauty with a special photo session.

So a huge congrats to the winners for 2010; Dr. Bonnie Lee, Mallory Kristjanson, Nadine Chandler and Dr. Tracy Edwards.
