Eclipse Goddess | Chilliwack Creative Photographer

What feels like ages ago I did this beautiful shoot at Cultus with Siobhan D’Souza from Shiverz Designs, Audra and makeup artist Kayla Marie. This was just before the flooding started - we shot this on the day the rain began and editing went to the wayside as everything unfolded over that tough time for so many - I love going back through shoots like these and trying new things with them, so here are fresh edits! This shoot was such a bright spot in that time - it was also right around the time of the eclipse, so we named this series, “Eclipse Goddess”.

This is my favourite kind of weather to shoot at the lake in (minus the torrential rains) because everything is so rich and moody looking

Autumn Feels | Chilliwack Portrait Photographer

I am an amazing Uno player and a terrible blogger.

This fall has been full of cozy soups, Halloween-themed sessions, florals, spooky movies, and editing editing editing. SO MUCH EDITING. I feel really grateful for this season - the last two falls have been complex and difficult for my family and I and creating art was sometimes hard to find energy & time for. It’s been such a kindness to have space - and spirit - to create this season and either the fall colours are more vibrant than usual or I’m just more present to them now. I hope however this season is unfolding for you it feels cozy, safe, and full of fall colours.

Little fall memories, October 2021
