Corrine & I met a few years ago through home schooling and we're also book-buddies. I'm in her awesome book club where we meet up once a month, go out for appetizers & wine.. catch up on life, kids and talk about whether a book was top shelf or a total flop and hits the bottom drawer.... without her, I just don't read for enjoyment the way I'd like to. She's my literary lifeline, she's my "good-reads"!
She's always a huge encourager, has a big mama heart and well one of the sweeetest people I know! So, when she called me back in October needing some new photo's for Christmas, we quickly made it happen, hitting up a quiet little spot in the city and did some exploring with her & her awesome crew down by the creek.
I took a drive today around the city, after all the ceremonies, taking pause to honour those that have served and gave so much of their lives for so many. With the little I can do, my heartfelt thanks goes out to each individual that gave so much.

It's been a little over a year when we moved into our first-brand-new-built-for-us-house. A lifetime of marriage and we did something we thought we'd never do and that was build new.

Years ago I was scheduled to photograph a family in their home to take some photos for their holiday cards. I arrived, set up.. the kids were being silly and showing me all their stuff.... All was going pretty good but dad was running behind schedule... no biggie!
