Well, It's that time of year again! Graduation season is almost coming to a close.
Last week I did some photos for a middle school graduate and her family. (My, have the times changed since I was in grade 9....) Now a days, it comes to no surprise for a limo to show up at grade 9 "Prom". I remember wearing a summer dress, and arriving in the family mini van! Mom did my hair, and I wasn't allowed to wear make-up! Here are a few shots from the session.
Do you have any favorite memories from your Grade 9 'Prom'?
In March I was one of a few volunteer photographers at the Bust a Move Fundraiser Event in Halifax, NS for Breast Health. The Canada Games Centre in Bayers Lake was packed with enthusiastic and hard working volunteers, who in total had raised an astonishing $515, 329.00 for cancer research. The atmosphere in the room that day was unbelievable. I was very proud to be apart of the event.
For those of you who are unaware of how the day unfolds, participants 'bust a move' for 8 hours straight, changing activities once an hour, with a 15 minute break in-between. The activities (ie: yoga, kick boxing, zumba) are all directed by professionals on the stage at the front of the gymnasium.
There is an album on my facebook page in case you are interested in checking out more photos from the day!
Last month I had the privilege of photographing an event at Sunnyside Mall in Bedford, NS. So for this blog post, I thought I would tell you all about it!
One lucky contest winner was essentially pampered for the entire day. To start off, A personal shopper assisted with choosing $500 of free clothing from two different locations (Olsen Europe and Nygard). Followed by a hair cut/styling at 'Shades hair Studio', then finishing off with make-up application at Shoppers Drug Mart. I was able to capture some great before and after shots for our winner who was absolutely thrilled with her results. Here are a few of my favorite shots from the day.

To make this story even more interesting, our winner had just accomplished her goal of losing 35 lbs over a year of hard work and dedication. The makeover couldn't have been given to a better suited winner! How amazing!
