May 20 – 26th This week was a cool week for Instagram.  I did a 5 Day Instagram Challenge with Jenna Kutcher It was pretty fun and kinda difficult.  It started with the “Selfie Challenge” and sharing some random facts about me.  Then it moved into sharing meaningful captions on Instagram that generate conversation and […]

What a gorgeous morning.  When Steph sent me a text to say her Lilacs were in full bloom, I had no idea what to expect.  I was thinking a nice laneway lined with white and purple lilacs.  I wasn’t expecting a full Lilac maze with cut trails for a great walk or to scoot around […]

May 13-19 Spring is in the air and this week was spent outside.  Lots of animal shots this week to practice with shutter speed and depth of field as well as using a high ISO. I’m much happier with my Alpaca images this year vs last year.  Both of these were taken in the barn […]

May 6 – 12 This week was definitely about documenting my every day.  The learnings came from getting the details while trying to tell a story without words.  May 10 was all about capturing real life worry with recent flooding.  Where the river meets the sidewalk.  I tried to keep the sandbags around a nearby […]

Special thanks to Ben and Rylee for not only asking me to capture some sweet images for them, but for also being super awesome people. It was a warm (ish) day back in April and Rylee had her heart set on it being a “sundress” day.  The sun poked through a few times, but we […]

April 29 – May 5 Photographing my everyday has been really fun so far.  Not hard to tell I love Country living and everything that comes with it. This week was spent looking for clean and non-distracting images, and I think I found them. I really hope to find some humans to be my subjects […]

As I look at these pictures, it makes me immediately relax and chill.  The simplicity of enjoying farm life shines through on most of the images below. It was a pretty busy day at the Sheep Shelf Open House (Farm).  They had a great variety of stuff to purchase sheep milk dairy products, wool dryer […]

Week 4 is behind me.  It’s definitely been a “Country” story telling week.  Wild Turkey’s, yarn spinning, tractors and gardening. As I look at the images that I like best there is one common theme.  Shallow depth of field is my favorite. I am hoping to develop my own style of photography this year, but […]

This week started out looking outside of the box.  I tried to look at composition differently that I normally would. As soon as I sat on the tractor and saw the old dials, I knew it was a different angle that I wanted to capture.  Looking down and looking back in time to 1958. It’s […]

My living room has a great southern facing window that lets in a ton of natural light, but with all the distractions in my living room, I struggle getting product images that were clean and crisp and distraction free. I was surfing through Pinterest one night and came across a DIY Light Box to help […]
