Fall is definitely a favourite time of year for many of us. I just can’t get enough of the kaleidoscope of colours, the breathtaking views, the smells, and the crisp cool air. A walk through the forest is filled with delights, and I find myself wanting to drink it all in, and savour it. Autumn… Read more »

July Birth Flower-Larkspur
As my favourite summer month is almost over, I wanted to share my latest creation, The Delphinium Bouquet. The Larkspur, the plant’s common name, refers to many flowers of the genus Consolida, which are annuals, as well as to the flowers of the genus Delphinium, which tend to be perennials. The Larkspur is a member… Read more »
On the Eve of Winter
I’d been keeping an eye on the forecast all week. Despite the impending winter weather about to set in, Friday was a surprisingly mild day, without a hint of icy breath of the whiteout to come. But the signs were there. Hundreds of clamorous geese were meeting up in the skies overhead, finally full from… Read more »
Mice and Mailboxes {Small Business Start-Up, Shared Spaces-Okotoks}
I recently had the opportunity to do some whimsical product photography of miniature proportions. Helping small business owners promote their products and services with photography has become a new area of focus for my business. Our world is increasingly visual, so great photography can really help a small business propel their image further, and is… Read more »
Spring in the North {Nature Photography, High Prairie, AB}
Spring has always brought mixed feelings for me. It’s such an exciting time of growth, renewal, and promise, as one looks forward to warmer, brighter days ahead.

Diaries from the Puppy Place
I haven’t blogged in a good long while, so it’s high time I shared some photos and stories of our recent escapades. We are raising eight puppies, and this new adventure has been the reason for my recent blogging hiatus. As I prepare this blog, the puppies have finally settled down for their nap, after… Read more »
Hike at Curley Sands-Mesa Butte Provincial Park-Kananaskis Country
On Sunday, at Brodie’s suggestion, and because it was on our summer bucket list, our family went for a hike in K-country. We’ve lived here for eight years, and have not explored very many hiking trails, or the back country, literally out our backdoor, so it’s high time for us to start taking in some of… Read more »
Epic Swarm Catch near Longview, AB
Last night was truly memorable. And although It wasn’t technically a swarm catch, it was definitely an experience. The actual swarm had happened a few days earlier, and had found a home in an old abandoned schoolhouse building. We believe it was the old Hartell Schoolhouse, located a few kilometres North of Longview. A local… Read more »
The Calgary Zoo Through a Child’s Eyes
Yesterday my son’s preschool class went for a field trip to the Calgary Zoo. It had been years since we’d went, the last time being in 2011, when David was just a baby. It’s always so awesome to see the kids so enthralled and excited about the animals. Our first stop was to see the… Read more »
