The Circle Is Complete!

Twenty-three years ago I had the opportunity to photograph, four year old Meghan Wubs as a flowergirl in her cousin's wedding. That first encounter paved the path for me to photograph four sisters and one brother's weddings in the Wub's family.

The last remaining child to be married in this family of six was Meghan. It was worth the wait, as Meghan absolutely shone on her wedding day. The ceremony and reception took place at the West Carleton Inn, where everyone could enjoy the ambience of the Inn in its Christmas decor and not have to weather the cold temperatures.

The three flowergirls brought many smiles, all nieces of Meghan. Erin kept it all in control as Maid of Honor. Paul's father held down the Best Man role.

The entire Wubs family was home for this priceless moment, with Julie and Chris and their family coming from Brazil. The family portrait of Meghan, Paul and the entire family was like a "history lesson" before my eyes, as I had been there for the weddings of all six children.

Meeting and being part of such beautiful families is a wonderful gift in this profession. The circle is complete!

I Wish I Could Tell!

This year I had some fantastic fall portrait sessions that I was very excited about. Unfortunately I cannot show or tell of these as many are going to be used for Christmas Presents. My thoughts on Christmas morning are always with these gifts as I hope that the recipients enjoy them as much as I did taking them.

They Get Better Every Year!

The family of Grant and Penny Brown have been coming to the studio for their Christmas family photo for a number of years. It is an assignment that I look forward to, as the five children are cute as buttons and the most co-operative young people about. Their simple black turtle neck sweaters and blue jeans makes their beaming faces stand out in black and white. What a beautiful family.

The Beach Family

It seemed only yesterday that I was photographing the baby pictures of Hanna. Now she is a beautiful young teenager. I must say though that Kim & Greg are as fun-loving as ever. It was a great session with the barns, dog and the corn field.
