McDonald Family and friends!! :)

On Sunday, Ronny and I met up with our good friends, the McDonald's. Every Fall, the whole family meets up and visits an Apple orchard. This year, they chose to visit Frootogo in Hamilton.

Here's the whole McDonald family. Gary and Diane had two sons: Scott and Ken. Here they are with their wives and kids...




Tristan and his mom, Andrea are good friends with the McDonald's... I love Tristan's eyelashes. What a handsome little guy! The camera loved him:)


Ronny and I are very close friends with Ken and Julie, here they are with their kids:


And here's Scott, Tennille and their beautiful girls!






This is my favourite capture of the day! I have to give credit to Ronny for it. It really shows the warmth of this family... they are a very snuggly group:)

Thanks McDonald's for inviting us along on your apple/pear- picking adventure!
Looking forward to hanging out with ya again soon.

Jeremy, Carrie-Ann and Family

Today I met up with Jeremy, Carrie-Ann and their four gorgeous kids at Lindley's Farm in Ancaster. I followed their family on a hay wagon ride, thru a corn maze and into a pumpkin patch. Here's a few pics of our morning...

Dawn and Bob's wedding!!

Dawn and Bob were married today- what a beautiful fall day! What a dream couple for us to photograph... they were so adventurous and enthusiastic:) I love it when a bride doesn't bat an eyelash when you suggest that she lays on the ground! We loved the yellow leaves. Here are just a couple of pictures from the day... there will be more to come!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Just thought I'd do a quick blog entry to say what I'm thankful for!
I'm so thankful for the loving family that I grew up in, and for my husband and his amazing family. I'm am SOOOOO thankful for 3 beautiful children; I prayed and believed for many years for them, what answered prayer!

And most of all, I'm thankful for a Saviour who gave His life, His all, His everything so that I can spend eternity with Him.

A BEAUTIFUL fall day!

Today was extremely warm for October... I ventured off in a t-shirt and jeans to snap some photos. Here's a friend of mine and her family...

Baby Audrey is sooooo cute!

These kids are so adorable, and so close in age!








I love the way little Liam is gazing at his daddy...


I was also fortunate enough to photograph my cousin Daniel and his very pregnant wife, Melanie!







Can't wait to meet your little baby in a few weeks Dan and Mel!

Baby Kneez

When I went to the fair this week, I came across a booth that sold this cool new product... the woman who designed these went to the same church with me a few years ago. Anyhow, it was cool to see her at the fair and I picked up a pair of these practical yet stylish knee pads for baby Eden.... for when she FINALLY decides to crawl!! :0) Anyhow, check out the Baby Kneez website by clicking HERE.

Random things....

Once again I was going through my photos and this one of Sherry and Adam brought a smile to my face....

We often ask our clients to do crazy things... sometimes they get a little dirty:) But many times the dirtier you get, the nicer the image turns out in the end...

And the news at home here is: crafts, crafts and MORE crafts! The kids and I have spent the whole week making crafts for the local fair! Evie is in her glory... crafts are her passion:)

Thank you Mom! And mom!

I was going through some of my pictures from the last wedding and came across this one of my mom with my little Eden. They're just hanging out in the van together...

I'm SO GRATEFUL that my mom has followed me to all my weddings this year taking care of Eden! Eden is a nursing babe so I can't leave her for long... thus my mom has to stay close with her. Don't know what I'd do without mom.
Here's mom with Eden earlier this year at a wedding, Eden loves hanging out with her 'beppe'!


And also thanks to my other mom (Ronny's mom!) who gives up work shifts and drives over an hour to come look after my older two kids, Evie and Elijah! I'm so grateful that you make such an effort to help us out. The kids LOVE spending time with you!! Here's a picture of the kids with 'oma' this spring. They love helping Oma garden!


I'm so blessed to have these two women in my life. They are both incredible, compassionate, loving grandmothers that are dearly loved!
