Our Unofficial Engagement Shoot
When we were finally able to see, hug and squeeze our families after not seeing them for months, we did all of the things. We caught up on life, we BBQ’ed every day, we sat under the moon in the backyard, we shared thoughts, ideas and plans, and during all this, an unplanned “engagement shoot”…

Dark Moon Empress Halloween Costume
Halloween costumes are a favourite on this blog. From unicorn costumes to Ariel costumes, I always look forward to this time of the year to post about what creative direction I decided to venture into for Halloween.

Framed Pressed Flowers
