I met Christine just over a year ago. In that short span of time, she has showed me what it takes to give back to those in need, the necessity of a drive and ambition, and the importance to always dream. Please take the time to look through the following images and words. I hope it can inspire you.
A special thank you goes to Jacqueline Parker Makeup!

The following images were taken while second shooting for Tomasz Wagner | Mananetwork during one day, of a five day wedding. The thing I love the most about Indian weddings is that it is a sensory overload – the colors, smells, energry, sounds and emotions are really evident during these events.
Oh, and the food. I love the food.

Going into 2012, I had no idea what to expect. Sure it has been a year of many ups and downs – more downs than ups it often felt like… but the good kicked its ass. Hard.
Wednesday, November 28th marked the 3rd Annual Professional BC Wedding Awards. Last year I had the privilege of attending as a guest for the first time, not really knowing anyone in the industry (except for Michael Wachniak, who thankfully invited me!).. but what a difference a year can make! I’ve been lucky to get to know some talented individuals throughout this year and a lot of them have become great mentors and friends.

Sometime around the end of September I was on vacation in sunny San Diego, sipping on a slushy, marveling at the giraffes, losing my mind seeing the giant panda bears eating grass and basically loving the fact I was wearing a tank top and shorts in fall. Being the tailend of my little getaway, it was turning out to be the perfect day… up until I got a text saying that Jayna Marie and Rey needed a photographer for their wedding that was a little over two weeks away – the day got even better.
