I recently photographed a nice home near Hatzic Lake in Mission, BC. The images are going to be used on website to showcase the home to many realtors around BC. I tried to capture not only images of the house itself, but also the surrounding details to give a bit of ambience. If you are in the market for a new home, the current listing is here.
Here are some favorites:

Yasmine turned 2 years a few days before her photography session. As a member of our Lifetime Portrait Club, she receives a free birthday session until she turns 10.
She is happy, friendly and loves playing with her mom. They were having a tea party with their teddy bears when we arrived. Here are some of our favorite photos . . .

…and she’s a healthy one, too. Our baby girl arrived quickly at 12:01am on June 25, 2006. We were quite fortunate to arrive at the hospital at the time we did…Darcie delivered in just over half an hour after arriving there. Our doctor didn’t even get a chance to deliver the baby! Darcie is doing very well, and we’re both ready to go home.
Here are the baby’s stats:
- weighed in at 7 lb. 6oz.
- 20 1/2 in. long
- has very dark hair
- loves to sleep (so far!)
- nursing’s a breeze
Her name will probably be “Alexa Lucia” but it’s not confirmed at this time. As you might guess, there are many photographs to go through already. We will be posting some as soon as we get home from the hospital.
The wonderful journey begins again….

I’m working on a website for The Scattered Gardener, Gretchen Hoff. This week, I got to visit her farm in Mission and meet some of her animals. I had a great time photographing them and some became quite friendly. Here I am getting kissed by a llama…

Sarah + Scott Robinson got married on June 10, 2006 at South Abbotsford Church and then went to the Vancouver Golf Club in Coquitlam for their reception. They ended up having beautiful weather and enjoyed their day. We wish you all the best in your new life together!
Some wedding photographs from their day:

Scott watching Sarah come up the aisle.

Sarah enjoying the ceremony.

They had a sweet limo that was a super-long Excursion. Lots of room to kiss in.

Sarah was absolutely stunning and glowed the whole day.

The bridal shoes.

The bride and groom.

The cake looked beautiful and tasty.

Only one more week to go before a special someone will be joining our family. Tonight, we went down to a friend’s farm in Abbotsford and took some maternity shots of Darcie. She’s mentally ready and is now just waiting for her body to get going!



Our little assistant, Xander, had a wonderful time running around and playing in the grass.

A picture is worth a thousand words and when you add a great caption a couple of laughs too.
During Dan + Nikki’s wedding photo session, a couple of Abbotsford police officers happened to stop by and wish the newlyweds the best. They also loaned them their *best* pair of cuffs for some power ring shots.
So send us your best caption (or even captions) via by commenting or by email.
