I think I have the best job in the world..I am a professional photographer. I get to generally make my own schedule, I meet amazing people and create and capture their memories, I love what I do and it all takes place in this gorgeous piece of earth that we live in. I never lose sight of this and feel gratitude for it daily but sometime I make an image that really, really has all that in it. It has my love of my job, my creativeness, the beauty of BC and a little magic. This particular image is even more special to me because it is of my daughter and her best little buddy. It captured them in a moment of pure bliss, a moment where their little 5 year old minds could barely absorb the beauty around them and it captures them being them. Life unscripted. I like to shoot like this anyways, but this was totally them. Sticking their feet in the cold river, splashing and playing and being silly, forgetting that I am watching them with my camera and just enjoying themselves. I think these moments are so rare and even more rare is to have an image that we can hold and look back on and think, that was a wonderful day. I will be printing this picture for both of them and I will hang it on my little girl’s wall so she can see the magic in her and all around her everyday. I am seriously grateful that I can give her this and to other families too. Thank you to all my wonderful clients who trust me to capture their magic.
