Hello all! this post is regarding PRINT ORDERS. All print orders come Purolator and there has been some delays unfortunately ! They are doing their best and have guaranteed deliver today or tomorrow or at the latest Monday! Everything was ordered on time and well before deadlines so there shouldn't be a problem. I know the company I order from too got a few orders from me spread out far apart too (I did one on a Monday and one on a Thursday so they probably held on till everything was done so they could ship it all together) this was a mistake on my part and should have told them to just send as soon as each order was complete. HOWEVER with all that said I do have a time line right now so I will contact you as soon as your prints are in.

The second orders for Dance Connection and reorders should be here next week! Longer than expect but tis the season! And covid delays are a factor as well! Will keep you all posted!

For those of you that had BOX PHOTOS done on OCTOBER 18TH your cards and prints were ordered today! They will be ready early in the week next week! I will message you privately when I get them back from the printe

Let me love you with all of my heart and all of my dreams. ~ Alexandra Vasiliu ... Andie won a give away that I did a while back. Im so happy she picked a couple session, because what a cute couple these two are! Ugh, it was so hard to just pick one from this session! So here are a few. I Loved hanging out with these two, what a great relaxing time down by the river. We got a beautiful day among these cold ones. It started out pretty gloomy but during their session the sun popped out from behind the clouds. Id also like to thank my handy helper Kayanah! ~McKayla

"Grandpa brings out the silly in us..." Had to throw up an edit of this handsome man... Grandpa Ray. What an awesome guy to be around. He told me tons of stories while he drove us around a couple of weeks ago to do family pictures with his daughter and grand daughters. I have a soft spot for Grandpas... their love is like no other. They are just so "there" for you when you need them.

I had the privilege to hang out a couple of weekends ago with this beautiful couple. My eyes certainty watered for most of the day as I have photographed Leah and her family a few times. Not only are they all my very good friends, both her mom and dad hold special spots in my heart also. My heart is so full that after all the changes that COVID threw at these two that they managed to have the most special small intimate wedding. It honestly couldn't have been anymore perfect. Can't wait to share more from this day. Congrats Mr. and Mrs. Sych.

She is a force of nature. At her core, all the wildness of the universe. ~ John mark green Loved this session with my best friend Kayanah. We had so much fun, we even got a little fright from a deer but I think they turned out amazing. ~McKayla

He walked into my heart like he always belonged there, took down my walls and lit my soul on fire... T.M Was it chilly? Yes. Was it windy? Yes. Was it worth it? Heck yes. ... Paige and Dustin dragged me on a little adventure to do their engagement photos. Im sure happy they did it was such a fun little trip. Congratulations you too! Its pretty rad that we didnt have to leave sask to get these super cool sandy pictures. -McKayla See more

From my memories today

Had the most wonderful time the other night with this gorgeous family! They had the most epic locations picked out and boy did I get a work out lol! It was absolutely fabulous though to catch up! The girls had purchased a Gift Card for Sandy last year for Christmas and I thought what an amazing gift! They got soooo many wonderful shots that night. Such an easy going crew to photograph! I just wanted to post up one tonight though because I didn't want the other images to take away from how absolutely beautiful this one turned out!

OK thats it for sneak peeks for now! a couple more coming out tomorrow night! Can't wait to share!

Good times hanging out at the Chmelnyk Ranch a couple weeks ago! Could not have asked for a better evening to do phots! Everyone did amazing! A couple of the littles struggled a bit lol but a grandkid pictures is what it is and I LOVE how the black and white turned out! All grandkids in the image but just chaos and I love it!

Had a blast with the Hoffman family last week doing a more "city" vibe look! It was so much fun catching up with Erin! I was a staple in her home when I was in elementary school! Her sister was my my bestie for many many years! I cannot believe how handsome your boys are Erin!

Caprice and I were waiting almost two years to do her Senior Class Casual Grad photos lol...we finally got it accomplished!!! We had the most amazing night too the sky was orange but it was soooooooooooooo dusty so was kinda cool!!! Can't wait to tackle this whole album!

Finally after a month got to get to some sneak peeks today! First up this gorgeous family! Aleah and Terran are fellow photogs who work all over the place doing amazing work! I loved hanging out with them and meeting the rest of the family! How can you tell the grandbaby is the center of everyone's worlds! Love it!

Good day all... Sorry so quiet around here! I have been insanely busy this past week and today ended up crashing on the couch and falling asleep for a good 2hrs! Was definitely not on my to do list lol. Couple of things.... 1. Dancer photos will be done EDITING by Thursday then I do have a bunch of organizing to do with them, loading them to the website ect. making sure all passwords and imges are properly loaded ect. I will have info going up for how you will access your im...ages ect. Print ordering the whole shabang BY MONDAY AUGUST 31. It has taken alot longer then I anticipated however moving forward I now have a handle on how this is all going to work it being my first year of doing these! I cannot wait till next year and have so many more ideas in the works! I just need to give a shout out for you all with your patience and awesomeness!!! This has truly been such an amazing experience! I knew going into it it would be a lot of work but it was all worth it in the end! 2. TO ALL MY OTHER CLIENTS... your sneak peeks will be up Friday! I haven't even download my camera since AUGUST 3RD I know so absolutely terrible!!! I downloaded it today and will be sorting through the images tonight and picking your sneak peeks for Friday so keep an eye out if you have had photos in the last month! 3. To everyone waiting patiently for their photos, I should have them completed the week of the 7th. I will touch base with you each individually!

And lastly, to all waiting for your dates to be picked for fall photos, we will make those decisions soon.

So the last two days I have been sitting at my desk EDITING. I took a few days off to hang at the lake over the weekend to clear my brain. Anyhooooo Yesterday Mckayla and I started editing the Dance Connection creative shoots and soooo many have totally blown me away. I'm so excited to somewhat start sharing some. ANYWAY.... this girl blew me away. Alyssa you are a stunning dancer and your movement was flawless. I think we nailed each move on the first shot. You caught my eye. Your movements were incredible and the photo proves it. Just giving everyone the update the dance photos are being tackled this week :) Cannot wait to share the albums with you all soon!

He drank the sunrise right from the sky, its fire reminded him of her. ~ Ariana After having to reschedule a bunch of times because of the dang wind, which was insane we finally got an amazing night for photos! Georgina and Ollie were suppose to get married last weekend. Sadly they couldnt due to covid. Sometimes things dont work out quite the way you were planning. But that never stops love and these two had lots of love for each other. So Im happy we were able to finally get these photos done once the weather cooperated. They were such a fun gorgeous couple to hang out with and I think we captured some great photos.

I dont even have words for how absolutely amazing Bonnie is and how wonderful of a friend she must be! She planned this little photoshoot for her and her friends wedding anniversaries and Im just in love with it! They all had such a blast and I cannot wait to share this entire album with you all soon!

This past weekend my absolutely beautiful niece married her best friend. Jacqueline and Cody, thank you so much for letting me be a part of such an intimate wedding. I know the dang Covid really put a damper on your plans HOWEVER the day was full of laughs and tears of course but most of all the day was filled with LOVE. I know she has been patiently waiting for these photos to be shared before she shares anything else from the day! Sorry Im late posting family and friends!
