...It's been a while. I have been busy, busy, busy! .
My daughter and I took a (very) last minute vacation to Mexico for some much needed relaxation and rejuvenation. It was amazing...so much more than I had imagined it to be. There is beauty EVERYWHERE, the people are insanely friendly, I'm pretty sure the ocean has some sort of magical healing powers and the margaritas are to die for! Of course, I took a few pictures...
Most definitely the highlight of my trip...I got to hang out with two of the coolest chicas in Mexico! Sol Tomargo, my fave fave photographer and a top ten wedding photographer in the world, and the Del Sol Photography studio manager, Melissa Mercado who defines awesomeness!
Only four days after returning to Canada, Peyton and I hopped a plane to Newfoundland. Well...we kinda missed our flight from Fort McMurray to Edmonton so we "flew" to Edmonton...but our landing gear was down the entire way. ;) We made it for the Edmonton to St. John's flight...barely!
Oh home...I love home.
I love this restaurant in Trinity...
I love this scenery...
I love going to my nephew's soccer games...
And spending time with my beautiful one year old niece (and God-daughter)...
Peyton and I have endured had some life altering changes this summer. Let's just say that I'm glad summer is over and I'm ready for Fall!
One change that we were not expecting was the passing of our beloved four year old Chihuahua, Rocco. He was the most amazing dog. He was my best friend...and I told him that everyday of his life. He was definitely more than just a family pet, he was an important part of our family structure. He brought a smile to our faces everyday. I will always miss him excitedly meeting me at the door after work, sitting between my legs as I stood at the bathroom vanity each morning, and running to comfort me when I was upset.
Regardless of the things that have happened this summer. We are absolutely keeping our chins up, we know everything happens for a reason. One day, when the time is right, we will know.
So it appears that I spent my summer vacationing....I guess that would be about right. But i have spent a lot of time shooting. Here's a sneak peak of what I'm working on right now. More to come later....
