Kennedy came to see us the day before grad with her mom, Dad, little sister, and boyfriend.  You could tell she was excited and apprehensive about the big event she would celebrate the very next day. I hope everything went exactly as you had hoped Kennedy and that you took the time to take it all in!  Congratulations to you and best of luck in the next chapter!

Realee and Ciara are identical twins with amazing and very individual personal style.  They came out last Friday for a styled shoot. Here's the result;

Way back before Christmas Chantelle and I began collaborating on a session for her and her husband Scott. It was so great to work with Chantelle who is an amazing artist. I found we were always on the same page and could be great sounding boards for each others ideas. I can't wait to wok with both Scott and Chantelle again!

December 5, 2010 // Styled / boudoir / portraits

Wednesday nights are girls night.  Nothing big; just ANTM, wine and girl talk.  We often dream up fun photo shoots that we hope to someday style and shoot.  
Well this was our latest brainchild and was more work than any of us expected but soooooo worth it!  Molly, who has become like a real life barbie to me, was transformed into our disco dancer after a long night of dancing.
Here's the result;

I always have little ideas rolling around in my head; things I may have seen somewhere else, something inspired by music, advertising, movie, books, etc. etc. Some of these ideas never materialize and sometimes it's years before they do.

I love anything and everything red and have a small obsession with apples. My desk is scattered with all sorts of apple paraphernalia. This idea has been rolling around for a couple of years.

Tanks Gina for trusting me enough to dress you up and have you hock apples!

Cheers,
Dani

When you find someone you want to spend the rest of your life with it's a pretty amazing thing. It's even better when that someone has fabulous siblings that you really connect with. 

I always wanted a sister growing up, a soul mate who could share in my every fancy and every passion.  Then I met Devin that all sorta just fell away. Devin became that person in my life. What I never expected was that I would gain the sisters I longed for as part of the deal.

Every year I love Devin more than the year before. And every year I don't think it's possible to love anymore but I just do. It's the same for his sisters. We've always gotten along, but every year I feel closer to them and love them more.  After 13 years with Devin it's hard to remember life without my sisters. It's like they've always been there.

This past summer I photographed Kylie, Devin's youngest sister, with her boyfriend Andrew in Edmonton. It's funny how much Andrew and Devin are alike. If they were the same age I'd swear they were separated at birth... more on that next time.

Cheers,
Dani

The weather here has been so unseasonably warm. We're actually reaching temperatures above freezing in January! So late last night I was itching to run out and capture some of this beautiful winter wonderland and frost that we've been having every morning and Rissa was kind enough to volunteer.

It was so warm this morning that we almost didn't find frost. Don't be fooled though, Rissa still froze her butt off standing out in the wind in a skirt. She's such a trooper and I think her efforts were well worth it. We managed to make some fabulous images. Here's a sneak peek;


Thanks Rissa!

This is the best September I can remember. The weather is perfect, hot during the day and cool at night. I'm loving every second of being in my new fabulous space. Football season has started, though I'm just a spectator this year.

Recently I went out with Mrs. Mickey MacGillivray and MySpace idol Brittinea and made some fun images. Oh, I should mention "Telle", Brittinea's rock star boyfriend who is both an awesome assistant and a great prop. Check out his band The World Alive.

I love these images from our play date;_MG_4704.jpg bitt1.jpg britt2.jpg britt3.jpg _MG_4794.jpg britt4.jpg britt5.jpg britt6.jpg _MG_4951.jpg

These images were processed and posted from my new computer / monitor that has not yet been calibrated, so please let me know if anything is really off. Thanks!
