relaxation
romantic sunsets
each other ;)

 See that big guy on the right? We are eating him tonight - well some of him. His name is Mahi Mahi. That is his little buddy Yellowfin Tuna beside him. We were eyeing him up as the fishermen brought him in. David got talking to another tourist and they decided to share him so he was cut up into about 30 steaks (15 each) ...... We will BBQ him tonight. mmmmmm Here's the plan - Macadamian nut Crusted Mahi along with home made avocado salsa and chips and coconut shrimp.

Cheetah vs Hyundai Veloster Turbo

 A fellow photographer on a 365 group I belong to is Brad Johnson, a professional videographer/producer, who has been working on "behind the scenes" videos of the recent Hyundai commercials that will air on the Superbowl tomorrow.
Here is one of the commercials followed by Brad's "behind the scenes" video.

A Day With Miss Eva

Miss Eva came for a sleepover. We had a blast and she was happy as can be. Okay we didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night because Eva is particularly fond of sleeping with Grandma and Grandpa but we had great fun at the Farmers Market - ice sculptures and petting zoo too.

 

OBSESSION

Remember the model shoot I did a few weeks back for a book cover?

Well it is up on kindle and worth a read. And when you are finished reading it, do leave a comment on kindle for this young Saskatchewan author.

Saskatoon Photography Newborn

I love newborns. They smell so wonderful. So fresh form above.
Welcome Sloan. A very special gift for Aaron and Alicia. There is much joy in this family ~ a healthy full term precious daughter. God is good.

 I love this photo below because I know how much Alicia went through to have this precious gift in her arms. Her rainbow is here and she is healthy. Blessing upon blessings!

Photos are all up in Sloan's gallery on the web site. HERE

More Smokin'

Since David is away this week it seemed an opportune time to burn some incense. :)

Your interpretations?

I see a crustation or two and something yelling at me, but that's about all. You all have much better imaginations then I have. Especially you Cindy! and Angie! I just play with light and camera.

So let me know what you see.

ThreeSixtyFive 2011

I chose some photos from my 2011 365 and put them together in a slideshow. They don't really represent my year. My Dad passed away in April and well I do have photos of him and Eva from last February, they were not 365 photos - so I will be a purest and only use 365 photos. But one day I will put together a slideshow of 2011 that represents the milestones of the year.

Brand New!

This beautiful bundle arrive last week and I got to photograph her when she was yet 20 hour old.
She is very special. I shot Alicia and Aaron's engagement photos last March. You can read about their special story there. And their pregnancy shoot HERE

Welcome Sloan!
