The beautiful Jamie - boudoir: August 2009

ne of the things I love about boudoir photography is that it can be simple and classy, and be for yourself instead of for anyone else. Last week, I had the opportunity to do that exact kind of shoot for Jamie. Check out these beautiful images.

I love this one . . .

Love this!

Hard to take a bad picture of this body!

Absolutely stunning . . .

Jamie, you made this easy! Thanks for being so fearless!!

Noah Yelizarov Memorial Hockey Tournament

Last weekend I had the pleasure of photographing a beautiful event. In honor of Noah, a young man who tragically died in Thailand a few weeks prior to his 19th birthday, his family and many many friends held the 5th Annual memorial hockey tournament. All the proceeds from this event are being donated to Children's Hospital, and Canuck Place, as well as to supply a small Thialand community with defibrilators that could have saved Noah's life. The day was full of joy, hockey, and later on a live auction! Here are just a sample of the event . . .and bear with me - its my first "sporting" event!!

I feel very honored to have been a part of such a wonderful event! Thank you to Nicole for asking me to be involved, and thank you to the Yelizarov family for bringing the community together for a beautiful cause.
