Wow, what a beautiful day to take family portraits.  We went behind “Old St Joseph’s Hospital”, here in Kenora. The  big willow tree provided nice cool shade and gorgeous photographs.  Can’t wait to show my clients their beautiful images!

To all the brides, their moms & friends, and to all the vendors that participated in our 5th Annual Wedding Expo this past Sunday, thank you so much for making it such a success!

Congratulations to everyone that won gift certificates in our Cash Cube, what a blast!  It was so much fun watching all of you catching as much money as you  could.  Thank you Brenton and Candice for running that for us.

And last, but not least, a huge Thank you to Brenton of  Summer Bounce Entertainment – Interactive DJ Service.  You did a great job of getting the Brides up on the dance floor and teaching them Cupid’s Dance!  You ROCK!!!!  For those of you interested in hiring them, their website is:

Well, I just got back from visiting with my friends in Winnipeg, last night.  They are expecting their first baby, I’m so excited that I can hardly wait to meet the little fellow.  While I was visiting they showed me the 3-D Ultrasound of their little boy.  Wow, what a cutie! We call his dad “Mini Me” and this little guy is definitely a “Mini, Mini Me”!  It’s amazing how much detail you can see with these fancy ultrasounds.  OK, I’ll try to stay calm for the next month and a half till he’s born.  Oh ya, I also got to feel him moving around in his mommy…wonder if those were little feet kicking or little hands?

It’s a beautiful Sunday afternoon for relaxing on the deck at the cabin and watching the loons frolicking on the lake.

Yesterday morning I had the privilege of photographing a family that had gathered for a special celebration.  We went out to McLeod Park here in Kenora, Ontario to take in the beautiful backdrop of  Lake of the Woods.  The light was so beautiful with a bit of cloud cover which made for really  soft light and rich colors.

People often think that you have to have a bright sunny day to photograph outdoors but the truth is that slightly overcast or hazy days are the best as the sun is filtered, diffusing it into really soft light which really makes the colors “POP”.  I’ll post some images soon so you can see what I mean.

Hope everyone’s having a great weekend and soaking up the sunshine!

Yippee it’s Monday morning and it’s already hot!  This summer is shaping up to be a good one a bit wet right now but at least it’s warm and the trees are green.  It’s a great time to start planning for a family portrait outdoors at your favorite park, your cabin or favorite place on the Lake!  Take advantage of our July and August special as seen in the upcoming Lake of the Woods Cottage Magazine.
