  • Apple Picking and A Corn Maze

  • Earlier this month I spent a beautiful warm Fall morning with family while apple picking at the lovely Applewood Farm in Stouffville.  I can't begin to describe how deliciousously fresh a honey crisp apple is when picked right off the tree with the morning dew to wash it off.  I even experienced my first corn maze!!  I[...]

  • End of Summer Portrait Session - { Newmarket Photographer }

  • A Little Sweet Friday Treat

  • It's a beautiful sunny Spring day, but it feels so much like Summer already.  Something that reminds me of summer is cookies and an ice cold glass of milk.  It's the perfect treat after a day of working, playing in the park, lounging by the pool, or reading a book in the garden. Oh lookie here!  I have some cookies [...]

  • Happy First Day of Spring!

  • Today is technically the first day of Spring.  There is a drizzling rain / snow mix falling outside, I'm still wearing a turtleneck sweater and long socks, but I'm looking forward to what Spring will bring.  The temperature will begin to rise and melt the snowbanks, the rain will wash away the sand and ugly cigarette b[...]
