When you look this good at 40, you celebrate!

I had the privilege of photographing my friend Erica as part of a surprise 40th birthday gift her family so beautiful orchestrated. She had no idea what was in store, which made it even more fun.

As per usual, when hanging with Erica, the shoot was filled with laughs and organizing/game planning 4-H activities. (When you're 4-H leaders together you don't shut off the 4-H leader part even in photo shoots. ;P)

Thanks Huber/Martindale family for including me in this fun, fabulous 40th birthday shoot!

And just like that - the 2024 photo season is wrapped!

And we're also back - back again for the 3rd year in a row with the Martindale family. (How I love me a repeat client!)

This year we didn't battle the notorious Nicola Valley winds, the trees were nice and there was no snow. 10/10 would recommend the weather Mother Nature kindly offered us.

As you may notice, this family session included your posed group shots, but also lots of candid or editorial style images. Those are my favourite to capture and the ones that should fill everyone's home.

Thank you Martindale family for having me out to capture you guys yet again. It's so awesome to watch the kids grow and get more and more comfortable in front of the camera each year! ◡̈
