A few weeks ago my friend Nick was at dinner with a group of his friends. Somehow the talk turned to people telling Nick he needed to try out modelling. Nick thought maybe this might not be a bad idea. Our mutual friend Jesse sent him my way. We shot some pictures. Here are the results.

The stark beauty of Winter

I don't often post landscapes here (because I'm advertising my services as a wedding and portrait photographer) but I actually love to go out and shoot landscapes. There's nothing more peaceful than finding a spot, seeing it's beauty and then capturing it to preserve it forever. 

Recently I went up to Vancouver, B.C. for a family photoshoot and we decided to make a weekend of it so on the Saturday we went to Lynn Valley Suspension Bridge. It's a place I heard about when I was living in Vancouver but I never managed to make it out there so now seemed as good a time as any to explore!

It started snowing just as we were about to cross the border into Canada and it had clearly been doing so for a few days in Vancouver so the bridge itself was very slippery and I opted to just go halfway across and take some shots before heading back, it was a long way down if I slipped! 

But I managed to get some good shots and it's definitely a place I want to go back and visit again when the weather is a bit more hospitable.

Remember The Hawkins from the photoshoot a couple weeks ago? Well those babies are no longer in their Mummy’s tummy anymore! Born a couple weeks early (without complications) they are almost finished cooking and ready to be discharged from the hospital! I’m so excited to watch my friends transform from a couple to a family. Plus the babies make for great models for all my crazy photo ideas!

Is there any better way to end the weekend than with a beautiful sunny evening capturing memories with good friends? That's exactly what I did a couple weekends ago with Jesse and Angela who were expecting twins. The babes have since arrived and are healthy and growing strong!
