Life Captured 365 — 2018
Whether you consider yourself a photographer, a mom with a camera, or an iphonographer, I challenge you to take portraits with intention more often. Anyone can do a 365 project; start right now. Make photographs of the people you love.
Wading into 2018
Some years I’m ready to jump into the new year with both feet. This year I’m wading in slowly. January is nearly through and I haven’t declared my New Years resolutions or inked out a to-do list on paper. The last months of the year tore by wet and hurried as a hurricane and I’m […]
Life Captured 365 — 2017
I’m part of a blog circle this month so make sure to head over to das foto studio family and newborn photography and follow around the loop to see all gorgeous images from talented photographers around the world! Having my instagram lifestyle photography community for inspiration and motivation is what helps me get through projects like […]
April Favourites
April Showers bring…. May showers? It has been a very wet spring! But rain or shine, I’ve been shooting daily. My Life Captured 365 project and my One Second Everyday videos keep me on track with shooting, even if I don’t always keep up quite as well with editing and posting. It can feel a […]
The Secret Garden: Government House
Classic children’s literature is one of my passions and when I can combine that love with photography, it’s a magical thing. Gracie and I read The Secret Garden last year and decided that we’d do a special photoshoot based on the book this spring. We love planning character shoots as a creative activity together. […]
March Favourites
March, and Spring at last! We usually start our spring a few weeks earlier here in Victoria. But this year we weren’t bragging about flowers in February or beach days in March. Our cold weather turned to wet weather and the blossoms reluctantly bloomed around the first day of spring. This was the dreariest […]
The Magic of Character Shoots
I ask my kids to participate in a lot of photo shoots. Usually it’s as simple as wearing a particular item of clothing to a specific location (I love styled shoots). Generally they don’t have to do much actual modeling, they just need to be themselves and I do the rest. Usually I have a vision and […]
January Favourites
I thought it would be fun to create a post showcasing my favourite photos at the end of each month. I share photos on multiple platforms, and some I don’t get a chance to share at all. So this will be a new way to put them on display. This photo of the children in the tree […]
Life Captured 365
Life Captured 365 is the most ambitious project I’m working on in 2017. This is my first time doing a 365 project, a popular undertaking in the photography community. I’ve done shorter daily projects but was always hesitant to commit to the full year. It’s not that it’s difficult or new territory for me — […]
