I took this picture on Sunday~who wants to guess what Kevin HATES about it?

Well, I knew the boys didn’t ‘love’ having pictures taken…I was warned before I arrived, but I did NOT think they would be quite this happy that I was leaving!

{more pics from this handsome bunch coming soon}

What else?  You might ask?

Well, millions of rain drops, heavy thick clouds AND two bee stings!

But we had a great night!!! Tonnes of pictures to choose from for Mom!!!

An overview of the evening:

the chickens:

the corn:

and the mirror!
Super cool outdoor accessory!  I quickly learned why they have it…Dad had to check his hair to make sure it was ‘perfect’!

Thank You so much for inviting me to your farm!  It was a great evening, despite a few ‘obstacles’!

~Dawn~

I was so excited about this session from the moment we started talking about it!

This lovely couple is going to be married in Quebec next year, so they wanted some engagement pictures taken~they are planning to send out some Save The Date cards!  I have an awesome new card product available that will be PERFECT!

The golden wheat was gorgeous!  Thank you so much for asking me to take your engagement pictures!  I’ll be in touch shortly!!!

When we talked about a session with these little girls and at this AWESOME location I knew it would be so wonderful!

Meeting clients at a meaningful location is something I LOVE to do!  It really makes the photo’s unique and gives each photograph an extra touch of meaning for the people viewing them!

Photographs tell stories, right?  Well, what does this one say to you?

Maybe “WATCH OUT, you’re gonna get spit on”…

The llama chased us out of ‘his space’!   I don’t think the horse was very happy to have us either!

But the other animals were happy to have the girls!

(I guess the trouble came when I went in, so either they didn’t like me, or my camera! )

How adorable are these girls?

Enjoy your sneak peak!  I’m trying to get through the rest before holidays!!!!!

Tis the season for holidays!

Just letting everyone know that I will not have access to phone/email/facebook next week, July 12-16!

I am packing my camera (and a MILLION other things) and will share some pictures when I come back!  But for now…some snaps of my kids having fun!
