Ty

Ty is such a charismatic little guy - I had so much fun on Gyro beach with him...The amazing personality, and with every look his face changes to resemble more of mama or daddy!   To Cute!  XOXO Ty

Jessica & Baby

Here are a few of my favourites from my girlfriends maternity shoot yesterday!  I love the glow...I will post a few more when I have a look at the rest.






A few shots of town

Shots of town...The clouds looked to perfect to be real.  I think the third photo here looks more like a painting then a photograph.
The last one, I couldn't resist, my car being the only white one in the pack, I thought it looked so neat.





Pampas Grass









Canadian Geese


The Canadian Geese are back in town...which although a nuisance it is a good sign of spring!







A Single Molting Cattail


This is one of my favourite photos of the day, the sun hit this molting cattail perfectly.  I love the composition, colouring and the sharpness of the single cattail against the mellowed background.

Thanks for taking a look!


Deck Frost & Ice

I thought since the frost and ice is here to stay for a while longer...I would make the best of it, and try and capture what it is that we enjoy...for the first couple of months!   The frost was so thick and icy covering the bridge deck...there is something very magical about the sun glistening off of it.







The Common Duck

The Common Duck, has the most amazing colours - although they were constantly on the go, I managed to get a few in just the right light.  These photos were taken downtown at the bird sanctuary.  The beak on the first duck, has been severely damaged.  I love the feet on the third duck, and I couldn't leave out the female, sitting along the muddy shore line, keeping warm.





Spots of Colour



Spots of colour in a long white winter...The stark spots of red are so nice to see with all the snow, brown and blue!  Winter please make way for spring!  










Chestnuts & Curly Willows

The chestnuts have so much texture right now, they are so fun to photograph!

The curly willow shots were taken after the frozen rain storm, the blue sky is reflected in the drops - if you look closely!












A dainty flower



I love how dainty these little flowers are...My favourite photo is the first one, I love the colour and focus.

Enjoy!








Painted Apple Bins



I love these paintings that the school did for the local fresh fruit market, they are so colourful and creative.  I have driven past them about 500 times and finally decided to stop and photograph them....only to learn that the backside of each one (3rd Photo) is painted as well!!

Frozen Rain drops

We had an amazing frozen rain storm last night!  It made for great morning photos.  The pampas in the front yard was heavily weighted and drooped with snow, and frost.

My favourites were the branches with frozen rain drops...the sky was so blue and reflected in the drops.

Hope you enjoy!






Torn Edge Tulips

I'm sure this isn't their real name...but to me that would be a good name!  Ted got these beautiful tulips for the girls for Valentines Day!  They are so dainty, the girls chose to have them down in their bathroom...They look cute with the reflection behind.
