Have enough pots and pans?

Introducing - Wedding Registry Cards

How it works

  • Advise your guests that you have registered with Dragonfly Photography. You can register for a particular item (such as an album, canvas or prints), or use the money toward your general photography budget.
  • Your guests can contact me by email, phone or through my website (I will provide you with business cards with my contact information)
  • I will arrange payment with your guest, and send them a card they can fill out to give to you at your wedding or shower.

Skating

My brother was working out of town for Gabe's birthday, and when he came back, we had ourselves a day with Uncle Tom. He did some brilliant research and found "bob skates" which attach the boys' boots (so their feet don't freeze) and change sizes so we're not looking at a swackload of money each winter.

Here is Thomas with Isaac. Tom is the best uncle. He plays like mad with them, is totally attentive and they adore him.

I was ridiculously proud of my kids seeing them skate for the first time. They got the knack pretty quickly. Of course, when I stepped anywhere close to their vicinity, they would fall down and whine Mama, help me, I'm stuck. The fact that I am a big fat suck/enabler is why I let Tom and their dad teach them stuff like this.

Yoga Bellies

Corinne, from Lotus Moon Wellness, asked me to take a few pictures of her yoga class for her new website (check it out, its pretty!)

This is Corinne. She is a Doula, a yoga instructor and does Thai massage.


And her class.

Being extraordinarily clever!
And a few of my favourites of the individual poses.








This was one of the coolest sessions I have photographed. Thank you for all your co-operation, and for holding those poses "just two more seconds"!

Friends

I have been friends with James since he was 2 and I was 5. (That's a long time ago, in case you were wondering!)

When we grew up, he met this wonderful person, Erin, and they got married and asked me to stand up for them at their wedding. I was so honoured, and it was a great wedding!

I was supposed to do maternity photos for James and Erin, and a couple hours before I left, James called to tell me Erin was in labour. So the first time I got to meet Amiee Jane was at her baby shower.

This is Penny(Willow) - James' mom.

Have you ever met a group of sisters who just click? These girls are so cool and funny. Hanging out with them is like being at a comedy show.

James flew his sister Joy out from BC for Amiee's baby shower.
The aunties wanted to call Amiee Chantarin, after themselves. She does not look impressed at the thought!Here is Tara's daughter.

James and Erin, I am so happy for you guys!
