And that's a wrap!

After a 3rd successful Wedding Season, I think I have finally decided to stop photographing weddings. Although the money is great, the bride & groom's are fun... its a very stressful event! I am going to focus on other things now, but of course, I will still do shoots for friends and family! (a shot from my final wedding on Sept 6, 2008 in Harrison Hotsprings)

Victoria Visit with Katie!

Mom and I headed over to the island yesterday to visit with Katie for the day... It was a long day of travelling, but lots of fun! Katie is starting to look pregnant for sure now, her house looks great, it was really nice to see everything! Just for fun, mom took us to the Butterfly Gardens... it sure was pretty (see below!)







Ok... I saw this and had to laugh... why isnt this my licence plate?! Haha....


Lilah's Photoshoot



We tried a few times to do this photoshoot closer to Lilah's 2nd birthday, but it has been a busy time for me with the moving, weddings and new job! Its neat to see how much Lilah has grown, I was most impressed with her great photographic instincts (I leant her my little camera).

Hike in the City

Happy BC Day... I went on a relaxing uphill hike by myself at Westwood Plateau Trail... It's so great to know that there is such a nice trail so close to home! It is 2.25 km to the top, so its a decent hike!

Finally Finished!!!

I am happy to say, as of last night, I am finished with all the craziness! 2 weddings and my payroll class all wrapping up at the same time has been exhausting. Over the weekend both sets of wedding images were delivered and very well received! Last night I finished my Payroll Compliance Legislation Exam with a 76% (which will also be my aprox. overall score for the course, maybe higher...) Special thanks to Nadia for driving out to be the proctor!

Cali's Photoshoot

Happy Birthday Bryan!

Happy 32nd Birthday Bryan!!! Poor guy just wanted to let the day pass without being noticed... I called his work at about 9:30am to let his co-workers know it was his birthday! They ended up surprising him with lunch, a birthday hat and cake at the office! (Good job Sum!!)
Mom and Elliott called me at work to ask us out for dinner (for Bryan's birthday) as they were in the area... we all met at Cactus Club and had an awesome dinner. Thanks again Mom & Elliott!


After dinner I took Bryan shopping for his birthday present, a new Poang Chair from Ikea! We have been talking about getting one for a long time now, I thought this would be perfect.
Taking the new chair out of the box...
Now to put it together...
I think Bryan had a fun day! Lots of birthday attention thats for sure!
