Recently I had the pleasure to spend the morning with the "Y" family.  They are such nice people and I totally fell for their kids.  For 2 and 5 years old, they were so well behaved.  Really, I could have taken them home, lol.  Doing family photos with kids that age can be interesting but once you realize who's in charge (the kids) it all goes well.  Just let them do their thing and capture it.  Thanks again so much Kirk, Sandra and Grama.  Here's just a few images from the day. Hope you like them :)

Well I don't know about the rest of you, but I have had about enough of the thunder, lightning, rain and power outages!  I don't think I have ever seen this much rain since I moved to the prairies back in 1981.  Wow, am I getting old....or sounding old, lol.  Anyway, tonight, in between rain showers, I got to shoot grad photos for my nephew Matt.  I can't believe he's graduating already.  It seems like just yesterday he was just a little gaffer that always had a wet mark on his t-shirts cause he would chew on the collar, lol.  Sorry Matt, but that's what I remember and I have a lot of photos of you like that.  Thankfully it stopped raining for a bit so we could get your pix done tonight and you showed up in a very styling tux.....without the chewed on collar, ha ha.
Matt had my lovely neighbor Trisha as his escort and she's always up for a photo shoot.  They are both so photogenique that it made my job pretty easy.  Congrats on your graduation Matt.  Your whole family is very proud of you.  Hugs. :)

Well you are bound to see lots of umbrella's in this session as it seems these days we can't have a day without rain.  But this family totally rolled with the punches. Even when it started to absolutely pour during the family photo.  Solution, just grab some umbrellas and keep on going, lol.  It was great.  It was so much fun to shoot these photos as well since I have known these two since they were pretty little.  I knew they would be "styling" as they always are and they did not disappoint that's for sure.  So anyway, there's a real mish mosh of shots here, including some goofy candids, but I just couldn't help myself.  Thanks again Leniczek family for being so great to work with.  Have a wonderful graduation!!  Here's just a small sample from today's session.  Hope you enjoy it!

Tonight I had the great pleasure of doing grad and family photos for friends I have known for many years.  I was very honored that they chose to drive from Yorkton to come see me for photos.  Sandra did such a great job choosing outfits for everyone. Pay attention people, Coral and white are fabulous colors against the green grass.  Anyway, thanks again guys for making the trip out and for being so incredibly photogenigue!!

Last night the Kohlert Family made the trek out to my farm for their family photos.  I was glad that it all worked out and that all the kids could be there, including Nikki and Scott coming in from Ottawa.  Thanks so much for being so great to work with.  The kids were adorable and sure well behaved.  It was nice to do some big group shots but also celebrate some anniversaries with some couples shots.  Thanks again everyone.

I am extremely happy that I got to shoot the grad photos of this lovely young girl.  Really happy, as she was involved in a horrible car wreck just weeks ago and she is very lucky to be here.  She brought a few of her best girl friends and some of her family members who were all awesome.  Dad was incredibly sweet and sure loves his daughter.  Thanks again Sonia.  Best wishes for everything that life brings your way!
