Happy Easter!

Pepper

While photographing new spring/summer clothes for Delilah {in the Glebe} little Pepper walked by and I couldn't resist getting him into the shot. He's adorable!!

Good Luck!

Taylor

So it's raining. Then snowing. What shall we do? Take photos, naturally. Everything work out amazingly well!! Thank you Taylor for being patient with me and to Sue, thank you for letting me photograph your incredibly beautiful daughter. I'd connected with Sue via Facebook and was so in awe of her strength of character and adore her love of animals. I think she surpasses me on that front. I simply wanted to do something nice for her and for Taylor, who will be heading off to university in the fall. I feel lucky to have these opportunities.

{tiny} Visitors

Two special visitors came by yesterday. I so enjoyed their company and I think Tika was in heaven soaking up all the love and attention. 

Share the Road

Laurie Sweig (The Point for Fitness) put on a fundraiser to raise money for "Share the Road". Here are a few shots from the event. Robert Wein, one of the Kanata 5 who were struck down by a car several years ago, and still recovering from those injuries, led a class. Here are few photos from that session. The energy was high and Laurie raised over $5,000. Great work Laurie and to everyone who participated. What a great day!

 Everyone working hard!

Rob looked like he was having a great time, great work, Rob.

Good News!

Good news. Daisy's latest blood tests show that she's getting better. As you can see, she looks GREAT!

 And I met Harrah yesterday. The bouncy, happy, energetic Berner.  I don't know what it is about Berners but Sam adores Berners. A little too much, if you know what I mean.

Our great city!

How great is it that you can do this, in the city of Ottawa!

Tiger

Toby & Julie

While checking a nearby cafe I met Toby and Julie. Toby is a banker from Norway and Julie is from Mexico. They met while he was traveling the world. JUST KIDDING. This cute couple are engaged and planning their wedding. Julie is from Argentina. Now I want to go back to revisit all the places we saw so that I can take better photos!  It was nice to meet both of you today and I wish you all the best!

And here are a few shots of the cafe.

Mudley

Sad to say that Mudley passed away yesterday. What a big, fluffy, lovable dog and the ONLY dog that was able to control Sam. Now that is a dog with super dog powers. What an amazing dog. So grateful for the opportunity to spend time with Mudley a few weeks ago. Muah. Love you Mudley.

It was that kind of day.

Busy.

Busy day yesterday. I only managed to take photos of these birds in our yard. It started with a playful display in our pond then they went up to the tree to dry off.

{re}connecting

Nothing like reconnecting with a lovely friend. Thank you for your company today.

Puppy!

Yes, I ran accross the street to photograph this puppy. The owner was taking her out for a pee break and I couldn't resist. I mean, really. Check out that nose!
