I’m so excited that the Winter seems to be finally on the way out, and pretty soon, we will be breathing that beautiful, warm summer air! Summer time means family photoshoots in beautiful sun-drenched light during the warm golden evening hours at this time of year, and I cannot wait to get back out there!
This year is unique, in that as of May 30th, I will be moving out of Barrie and relocating to Callander, Ontario. However, I DO have a schedule of dates when I will be returning to the Barrie area to service my clientele in this region. I have attached my availability below, if you are interested in booking, please contact me soon to reserve your timeslot, as once they’re gone, that’s it for this year!
Friday June 14, 2019 – 5:45, 6:45, 7:45pm
Friday July 12, 2019 – 5:45, 6:45, 7:45pm
Friday August 16, 2019 – 5 and 6pm
Friday September 20, 2019 – 4 and 5pm
Contact me and let me know your preference for date and timeslot and we will get you booked in!
*Rain Dates will all be the following night, same time (Saturday immediately following your booking date. If it rains that night too, then rain dates will be Sunday.) 🙂
If you are located in Callander or the North Bay area – I will have availability coming out for you THIS WEEK! I will be permanently located in Callander as of May 30th, and will be taking bookings beginnings for early June!

The only thing I love more than holding the Client Appreciation Contest each year is ANNOUNCING THE WINNERS! This year, the participation was PHENOMENAL! It’s been a little emotional for me, celebrating all of the clients that I’ve had the pleasure of working with over the years in the Barrie area and knowing that next year when I run this contest, I will be celebrating NEW clients up in North Bay as well as the lovely folks that I will still travel back here to serve. Thank you to EVERYONE for your support through the years and to all of my clients last year who made this contest possible – without further delay, THE WINNERS! 🙂
