Calgary’s Natural Parks and Wonders
The last couple weekends, I have made it a priority to get out to Calgary’s natural parks and wonders hidden within the city. During this time, I was in ‘awe’ with the beauty of scenic paths, natural plants and animals; not because I haven’t seen it before, but rather that…

Much like spring, fall is often a sought-out time for family’s, newlywed’s, kid’s and creative photos to be taken. Not only is the light less harsh and provides beautiful hues, the colours and smells of Autumn fill the air. Because of our ever-changing climate in Canada, there isn’t much time…

When I was back home in Saskatchewan for our family Christmas, I was contacted by a Calgary client. We’d just finished getting her photos printed, framed and delivered for her and already another request. Her adult grand children were down for a few days prior to the holiday season.
