Neuroblastoma Retreat

As a child I had a rare form of childhood cancer called Neuroblastoma. For 30 years I had never met another survivor. Last year I finally found one, and she opened my eyes to the world of the James Fund. The James Fund is amazing, and not only do they raise money for cancer research, but they also run an annual retreat at Camp Ooch in Muskoka. What an amazing weekend! And what a wonderful opportunity to meet lots more young survivors! For more information on neuroblastoma or the James Fund, please visit http://www.jamesfund.ca

Wesley is One!

Well, he's almost 1! Isn't he gorgeous? Big blue eyes and that blonde hair - watch out girls!

Kaitlyn, Part 1

Kaitlyn was such a good sport about this photo session! What you can't see, is that it's actually raining very lightly out. By the time I got out to her house to pick her up, it had gone from nicely overcast, to raining! So Kaitlyn, we will have to go back out for a dry session someday soon, but here are a few from our time today - thanks for being such a good subject!

They grow so fast . . .

I am blessed with spending my days with children and watching them grow. This particular little girl, has been with me since she was not quite 1! She is a pleasure to have around all the time, and of course - photograph! And I have to admit, the hesitant approach to the bus for the first time was making me tear up a little! I love how her smiles just lights up her whole face. :)

Wil, volunteer Firefighter

Wil is a volunteer firefighter here in town. He was wanting some nice pics of him in his uniform and his gear to show his family back home. And hey, who could pass up a visit to the firehall?
