Congratulations Beth & Mike!

Friday proved to be a perfect day for an outdoor wedding, and Beth looked stunning in her gown. It was so nice to be a part of their special day and the entire wedding was very elegant and romantic. The path to the wedding site was lined with lavendar bags, glowing with candle light and the white lights added a soft touch. The colours were beautiful and we only hope that we captured each and every moment for them :) One very memorable moment was when the bride & groom cut the cake with the assistance from Don Cherry! Congrats to you both and we wish you all the best as you begin the journey of becoming husband & wife...

Erin & Mike

It was also nice to meet Erin & Mike for their engagement photos! With Erin's dutch background, we found the cutest little spot beside the old windmill... you could tell they only had eyes for eachother :) Looking forward to your big day as well, and wish you both happy planning!

Congrats to Ashley & Adam!

It was nice to meet Ashley & Adam for some engagement photos, and we had a bright & sunny day for it. They warmed up to the camera and were very easy to work with! Looking forward to the wedding day in 2010!

Tulips & More Tulips!

A few more photos from our visit to the Nyman Tulip Gardens. I would love to have my very own tulip gardens that could be this beautiful year after year, however travelling to see them does make it all the more meaningful. I will be offering the same sort of sessions next season, so keep your eyes out for dates & times!

Tulip Time

We ended up having a beautiful day for photos in Bloomfield yesterday! The tulips were in full bloom and so colourful. Thank you to all of the families who came out and also to the soon-to-be-married couples :) Thanks to the Nymans who were very gracious in giving the kids a tulip, and also for allowing us to use their beautiful gardens.

Ste.Anne's Spa

Yesterday I had the opportunity to feel like royalty myself! Along with three lovely ladies, we booked an entire day at Ste. Anne's Spa in Grafton, ON. As you drive up the gravel road and the 'castle' comes into sight, you can already feel your body starting to relax. Especially after you sign in and receive your white robe and are given a tour of the grounds. We took full advantage of the natural spring pools, the eucalyptus steam room, wellness activities (our leisurely walk to visit the wild mustangs was well worth it!), and the other wonderful amenities that Ste. Anne's has to offer. In the afternoon we had our treatments, and I experienced the "Caribbean Therapy". It was my first time being wrapped in seaweed and it was amazing! I am pretty sure that I dozed off on the table and could have spent the entire night there on the heated massage table. I highly recommend going there for at least a day, and plan on spending a night there the next time I go. What a nice Mother's Day treat :)

Queen for a Day!

I was honoured to be a part of MYFM's Mother's Day radio contest "Queen for a Day" where mom's were nominated to win a day full of pampering! I met up with Angela (the Queen) at Hooked on Hair and watched as she received the royal treatment. The winning package included breakfast, shopping, lunch, spa treatments, etc... etc... etc! After she had her hair and make-up done, she was escorted back to her luxury vehicle and headed to change into a dressy outfit, then made her way to the Loyalist Golf & Country Club where we took some time for a photo shoot. The Queen looked fabulous and you could tell she felt like royalty! Thanks to MYFM for involving me in such a great contest!
