Wow, it's march already! Normally my season relaxes a bit over the winter, giving me time to reflect on the previous year and prepare for the upcoming one, and usually fit in some travel and skiing!
This year's been pretty non-stop so far, and I don't see it letting up soon. And it's soo great!! I do miss the skiing a bit, but then as my ankle is still recovering from a motorcycle accident last year, that option is closed anyways.
A note of gratitude to everything and everyone that's aligned to turn this year into a beautiful one.
So to do a little catchup I'm posting a few of the winter weddings I've had.
There was the early winter wedding of Fiona and Darren in Ottawa, the mid winter wedding of Jen and Nick at Mt Fortune Quebec, and the sunny January wedding of Elisa and Richard here in B.C. The temperature's ranged from -20 to +10, giving the full country's gamut. As is with wedding photography, their stories are best told with images. It was an honour.






























Many of you may not know that I've recently joined a shared studio space of around 2000 square feet. It's been perfect for meeting clients and an inspiring space for me to work from.
I recently had a product shoot there for GIANT Bicycles of Canada and the space made it possible!

And upon their website


Had a quick and amazing visit to Westham Island the other day and came away feeling like I may have a "birder" in me! It's a stunning place and well worth a visit especially now in the winter with lesser crowds and just as many birds.
Here's some of my favs that I've done my best googling the names for. Please correct me if I'm wrong? Above is a Great Blue Heron and below is a Black Capped Chickadee.
