ProFusion Expo 2016 & What's Been Happening Lately

Hey Everyone!

I'm finally caught up since coming back from vacation! I've been meaning to write this blog for weeks but when I came back from Scotland, Mac my eldest dog and my everything was having some issues. I don't want to get into too much detail but he has had heart problems all of his life and for the last 2 months things have gotten worse. For a few weeks there, it was the most scariest and hardest thing we have had to deal with. After taking him to the vet and getting him on some medication an monitoring his heart, he is doing so much better! I'm planning shoots again now that he's on the mend and is getting better day by day. We are just taking it one day at a time but he was my priority for the last few weeks.

Anyway! Onto my blog for today. I wanted to write a little bit about my time in Toronto at the ProFusion Expo. Buuut I go in depth in the February Issue of Practical Photography Magazine (out soon!). So be sure to pick up a copy at your local store to read all about it ;)

Thank you so incredibly much to Vistek and Elinchrom LTD! Thank you so much to Gary for giving me this opportunity and believing in me. It was a pleasure meeting everyone from Vistek Toronto and Bram from Switzerland! A huge thank you to everyone who came out to watch me speak. Thank you for coming up after the show to ask me questions, talk to me and even ask for selfies. The amazing team of ladies I had: beauties Olivia and Julia from Anita Morris Models and the wonderful Ann Oster. You ladies are incredible, I could not have done it without you thank you so much! Last but definitely not least I just want to thank my amazing fiancé. He travelled with me and was my assistant for the 2 days we were there. You were such a huge support and help for me. I can't thank you enough for everything you did for me. Love you! And my amazing parents, in-laws and everyone else who supported me from near and far. You have no idea what your support means to me. Thank you! 

For those who inquired about workshops/mentoring sessions please keep an eye out for an announcement. They will be happening!

I have some amazing editorials coming up after my winter sessions so be sure to keep an eye out! The New Year is looking to be amazing!

Until next time,

"The Beauty of Humanity" NYC Exhibit June 8th 2016

Hi everyone!

Two blog posts in one day? I'm on a roll! 

A few weeks ago I got a really exciting email! Squarespace, the company I host my website through, were going to choose one image from my website to showcase in their "The Beauty of Humanity" exhibit in NYC on June 8th (today). They were choosing certain artists from all over the world who have their website through their company (which I highly recommend by the way!) to showcase in this exhibit. I feel so lucky and honoured to be chosen as one of the artists. The image they chose is the one of the lovely Emily Fowler with the beautiful design by Kelsey McIntyre of Kathryn Bass Bridal. 

We shot this in my living room, material back drop right in front of the stairs, grey paper taped to my front door, all natural light. We even did the hair and makeup ourselves! It was such a fun day with these ladies and the whole series was absolutely stunning.

If you're in NYC go check it out! Unfortunately I couldn't make it to the exhibit but I will be getting sent a photo of my image in the gallery and will share is as soon as I get it! 

Thank you SquareSpace again for this amazing opportunity! 

Tomorrow I have more big news, stay tuned because this one is HUUUGE! 

Until next time (tomorrow),
