Missing Photo Op.

A few weeks ago I spotted this curious caterpillar in our potted cilantro.



When a week had passed and I noticed him again in the same potted cilantro, I decided to take another photo of him.



Not much difference, but you will notice that the tiny spikes are missing now.... Anyways, it's gotten a little colder here at night, so my husband and I decided to bring him into the house.
What a great photo op too! I could capture the rest of his stages of turning into a butterfly....

Well, I'm so sorry to say, that this morning between the time we said good morning to him, to the time we came home from grocery shopping, he had....

disappeared.... We're not sure if the cat got him, or he somehow found a better buffet or place to start his cocoon.... But he is M.I.A... too bad!

Summer Time

Well, the end of soccer and school means the beginning of Summer Time! And that is what we've been doing, Summer! I love love love summer (as much as I love photography), but sometimes it's just too much to run around with my kids AND the heavy flopping camera. I feel that I've missed out on some crazy photo chances, but hopefully I'll remember them in my mind.

Over the next few days (maybe hours), I'll put up some personal and 'professional' photos that I've taken this summer... I mean, it's about time right?

Here we have Oscar and Comet drinking out of the water hose.... isn't that just the meaning of summer!

It's been a long time.... isn't that what everyone says? At any rate, it has been. I'm horrible at blogging, and at times, I'm horrible at taking photos. At the moment I am taking photos at my oldest sons soccer games.





So much fun!

Please feel free to pass this on to EVERYONE!!! I'm having this sale to raise money for some huge Canvas prints to go to a Gallery here in the city. Wish me luck!!



I was hoping to get busier with family photos, but am honestly glad that I'm not.... I just don't think that's my 'cup of tea' right now. I am quite content in just having the camera near me and snapping things as the come along. I did find a pretty ladybug last week and took her photo ...




other then that (and having a HUGE list of photos that I want to take) .... I have nothing else really pressing.....

with those words, have a great weekend....

I'm currently accepting assignments in and around the Winnipeg area. It's still a little chilly out there, but if you can handle it then you will be rewarded with some beautiful shots! Why not make an appointment for your next sledding or skating day out, or we can meet at your local park or backyard. Winter weather is not as pleasant for prolonged photo shoots and so until March 1st 2010 all pricing and time spent will be reduced by 30%.

Can't wait to see you all in print!
