Photo Chicks 3 - Trash The Dress

Our Photo Chicks group got together once again. We had two bride and groom couples, and a bride on her own because her husband had to work. Because she was solo, I put a few more up of her. The weather was fabulous, although we were hoping for a bit of rain and mud. This has been such an unusual winter, as we had weather in the mid teens. I was down to shooting in a tank top. Ah, a glimpse of summer!

Vancouver 2010 Olympic Shoot #1

With just under two weeks to go before the Olympic Opening Ceremonies, Michelle and I went out galavanting around Vancouver to do some pre-olympic shooting. Last fall, I had the chance to photograph the rigging of the olympic banners on the Hudson's Bay Company building downtown, and last night, I got a finished night-time shot! It rained all evening, but not too hard. These photos are all SOC (straight out of camera).

Merry Christmas!!

Welcome family, friends, and blog visitors! It has been one heck of a year and I have so many people to thank for helping me get this far! My good friend, and fellow photographer, Anita, did my card last year as well as this year, and she did a fabulous job as always! Last year I was barefoot in the rain, but this year was a little too cold for bare feet. I honestly would have done it, but the -10 degrees celcius weather and bitter wind, caused my brain to forget about the bare-feet-cool-factor.

Hope you all have a blessed Christmas and a fantastic time ringing in 2010!

Love, Eileen


Sisterly Love

My friend, Krista, and her sisters came into my studio a couple of weeks ago to get some photos done as a Christmas gift to their parents. I only did a couple of sessions for Christmas because I recently had laser eye surgery and did not know how quickly my eyes would heal. Anyhow, I did end up doing a few sessions, and it all turned out fine! Krista, it was good to see you again. I love our 'once in a while' coffees we do, and I definitely had a great time meeting your sisters as well.
