This is completely random - but can you even believe that it is December tomorrow?  Oy!

Anyone else excited for the holidays?

I'm slowly in the process of updating my site with new photos from all my 2008 weddings, and having a so much fun re-editing and the images. Every wedding is such a blast. I thought that I'd share some of my faves right now...

I'm so lucky that I get to photograph such gorgeous brides, eh?

high school musical | event photography, powell river, bc

Here is a sneak peek of some images from Fiddler on the Roof, the local high school's musical, currently playing at the Max Cameron Theatre. Let me just say - the show is fantastic! I'm so proud of all the students that have showcased their talent. Here's a couple images from last week's performance.

These kids are talented! I feel so lucky to be involved in events like this, and can't wait to see the other cast next weekend.

Like the good book says... go see it for yourself!

presenting...

My gorgeous new albums, available through KENNEDY PHOTOGRAFIK!  I'm really excited to be offering these high-end, completely custom books to my brides and grooms.  I think this just takes our photos to a whole new level!

It's been a couple months in the making, but I think that it was worth the wait.  I can't wait to show these babies off to my clients in the next couple weeks!  And, for all my brides and grooms from 2008, I'll be sending out an exclusive e-mail offer for the Galleria album in the next couple weeks!

ma familia | family photography, powell river, bc

Do you know how hard it is to take a picture of your own family? And run the distance when you hit the shutter timer? I guess that's why everyone looks so darn happy... they are secretly laughing at me to the "ten-second sprint" to be in the photo!

Without further ado, this is my family (from left to right): Brandon, me, Spencer, Drew, Andrea, Mom and Dad. I know this is a peek, but this is part of their Christmas presents this year, because it's been over ten years since we had a family photo done!

slacker!

yep.  that's me.

i've had an extremely busy month between meeting with clients, getting settled with new vendors (sexy leather coffee-table albums, anyone?), working, editing, and volunteer painting for the local high school's musical.  my head is still spinning.  so, i apologize for neglecting the blog...

i'm off to victoria for the weekend, but p r o m i s e to have some posts for you next week... i'm thinking the rad-tastic new albums samples and some fun familia photos!  stay tuned.

drew + andrea | engagement photography, powell river, bc

okay, it's late.  i know that!  during thanksgiving weekend, i managed to get my brother, drew, and his fiancée, andrea, away for an engagement photo shoot around town.  here are a couple of my favorites, but, they have to wait for the rest (christmas, perhaps?).  :)

the queen

I love the evenings where I can escape traveling with a camera... AND SEE MADONNA!  The concert was awesome, complete with floor seats, great tunes, AND MADONNA! :)  She's absolutely fantastic, and completely ripped for a 50-year-old.  The concert did not disappoint!  Anyone else go?
