I started doing a little series of cute shops around Salt Spring Island on another 🕥 app (so many apps! 🤪) and have been slacking on sharing them over here, too.

This is one from last week showcasing The Shop On Jackson. It’s just downright adorable in there, and I’m loving that sign. 🙌

I’ve found some really neat stuff by some very cool brands in here.

I’ll get the others pulled over here soon, and am already working on some more. Where do you recommend I wander to next?

There is the most spectacular dogwood tree I have ever seen blooming at the Salt Spring Centre of Yoga. I was fortunate to be able to step away from my work and my family for a 2-night personal retreat there last week, finding peace and quiet to read, walk, meditate, sing, eat nutritious meals, and rest. I continue to be impressed at how I feel wholeheartedly changed after those days away to sink into myself. I feel like I have found my sense of peace and ability to let go of a lot that needs not be held onto, and gained new insights that have made me able to be a better mother, friend, partner, and human being.

There are many more photos I captured while there that I will share in future, but for now, please soak up the beauty of this tree with me.

Thank you for tending such a special place to find peace and connection with the natural world and other beautiful hearts, Salt Spring Centre of Yoga . I appreciate it tremendously.

A huge congratulations to all the students graduating from High School this month! Witnessing the grads (and the proud parents) celebrating their graduation this year at Safe Grad was such a beautiful thing to be part of. While I’ve captured several weddings at the farm here, this was the first prom I’ve shot and I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect.

I’ve said it many times before, but I’m still so impressed with the kinds of lovely human beings that I have had the pleasure of watching grow up here. What a great group!

This is just a small fraction of the hundreds of photos from the gallery. Some of my favourite photos are the groups of friends and classmates posing for photo memories of the celebration together (which I’m not sharing without being able to make sure I have permission from everyone in them). Definitely a lot of fun was had!

The florals decorating the GISS Safe Grad were absolutely stunning! Here’s a little peek at them. The people responsible for these deserve some serious props for such fabulous work. 👏

There were many growers that the parent committee who organized the event purchased bulk flowers from. Julie Kubik was the parent volunteer who had the vision and built the design esthetic. It was Julie and Alisha Victoria (another parent volunteer) who put together the beautiful arrangements. Didn’t they do a fantastic job?!

Flowers were purchased from:

What do you get when working with me as your photographer on or around Salt Spring Island, the Southern Gulf Islands and Vancouver Island? Whether you’re looking for someone to document your wedding or event, create marketing imagery for your business, or capture those special memories of your family, maternity, engagement, vacation, garden, or whatever it is that is important to you, I have developed a solid practice to offer quality photography services.

Here are some of the pieces that I am proud to invest in and offer to each of my bookings:

✨Photography website with various portfolios to preview my work and answer those FAQs and give you details on exactly what is offered at the various listed price points

✨Email correspondence with each client before booking (for larger projects like proposals, business marketing, and weddings, I encourage a phone or virtual meeting to get to know each other better and ensure we both feel that I’m the right fit for your important project, and am properly prepared to capture for you)

✨Streamlined booking process including a contract and invoice that helps keep us safely on the same page about what to expect and all the details

✨Secure payment platform that accepts credit cards, etransfer, or cash as payment options

✨A fun & relaxed photosession. One of the main points of feedback I get is how easy I make it for all ages to enjoyably settle into their most authentic selves while they have their photos taken, embracing natural moments and offering gentle posing suggestions

✨Quality equipment with backups just in case

✨A selection gallery of all possible images to choose your favourites from, slightly edited with basic starting settings that I carefully create to best fit your specific gallery. (For weddings and some other projects, I provide editing and delivery of every image that would be in the selection gallery.)

✨Careful editing of every image you select, without AI culling or editing (yes, it takes oodles more time, but is important to me)

✨Beautiful private password-protected on-line gallery with PIN required for download, with options to download in full-size and/or web-size files

More moss (and lichen), please. You can never have too much moss. Story time.

There was a magnificent hill of boulders I was once frolicking on, that the moss was so thick it felt like what I always imagined walking on a cloud would feel like. Pure heaven for my feet! Not gonna lie, I think about that mossy spot often. It was just spectacular. (Even though I also accidentally stepped on a snake - don’t worry, it wasn’t a hard step and I don’t think I did any damage, other than startling my fellow forest friends with a scream of slithery sole-tickling surprise.)

Anyhow, that’s my moss story. What’s yours? We don’t talk about the wonders of moss enough. We should change that.

An evening at the ocean is exactly what I needed. Joined by a hunting osprey (blurry, but can you see it caught something?), a flock of geese, some big birds (eagles?) chasing each other, and flitting bats. (PS - That’s the best slow-mo of the bats I could get at the end. I’m keen to go back and try again - so cool, those little creatures.)

This magnificent human. Gah! What a heart and soul and smile!! Forever thankful for the incredible humans who have graced my life and my lens with their beings.

, thank you for making and sharing your music and your light with the world. You encourage me to “Do Better”, and I’m in awe of all that you are. ♥️🎶

I’ll take a playful adventure with an inquisitive, strong, and beautifully spirited child and their family any day.

Do I offer posing suggestions? You bet! Do I also follow the lead of the beings within the photos I’m taking, and capture their authentic moments of joy and wonder and connection? Absolutely.

The best sessions are always a lovely mix of freedom of expression, and artistic direction as needed. We can do both when we tell your stories through my lens. These are your stories to tell, and the best magic often happens in just being together, documenting what arises naturally. I’m just here to craft the imagery with the best framing possible. ✨
