I have to admit that I'm not the best with getting myself in front of the lens, BUT I'm making an effort to change that! My parents came to visit for a few weeks over Christmas, so I got my ever talented friend Krysta of Krysta Jayne MUA to come over and pamper my mom and I, and even give little miss some curls and sparkles. I used a couple of my prop dresses for little miss and I, and the boys came just as handsome as can be. My lovely friend Jessica of Mushrooms & Thyme came and snapped some pics with my camera.

It was chaos, we were sweaty, it lasted about 10 minutes, a certain handsome boy was NOT in the mood, but we got it done! So believe me when I tell you, I get it! HAHA

It's so important to exist in photos, even if you have jiggly bits or don't like what your hair is doing, that doesn't matter in the end! So, without further ado, here are just a few of me with my family (and even our little old pup, Jasper).

With getting more into studio portrait photography this year, I took a leap and entered a handful of images just to see what would happen. I'm so excited that I won 5 BRONZE awards, two of them with distinction! 

I have learned so much over the last few months and my ability to turn a vision into a reality has definitely come to life! 

I want to thank Angela of Lovella Lifestyle for supplying gorgeous flower and her stunning self to be featured, as well as Krysta of Radiance by KJ for doing her hair and makeup, and also helping to style the photos. I also want to thank my stunning friend, Tiffany, for letting me create with her. She did her own makeup and hair and I couldn't be happier with the results. There is just something about her gaze, and her gorgeous smile!

And now, it's time for the photos. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did creating them!

 It all started with a dream to create some beautiful portraits of a woman who inspires me with her business and creativity, and it grew into more than I could have imagined.

Angela from Lovella Lifestyle, an amazing floral designer located in Edmonton supplied her stunning flowers along with her gorgeous self as subject. Then Krysta from Radiance by KJ brought her amazing hair and makeup skills to finish up the final details of the day. 

We created together and showcased Angela as the flower goddess that she is. Now come on a photo journey of our afternoon together and see how the magic was made!
