Take the photos… and then edit them. I took these in April 2018 but I guess better late than never! These sat on my hard drive for two years because I was overwhelmed and didn’t have time to edit them. Or I thought I didn’t. This year with everything happening in the world, we don’t get to go visit our family in Nanaimo. We missed last year too because Leo was so little. It’s hard. It’s really hard. But it’s what is safest for everyone.

Going through these photos two years later, my first instinct was to pick them apart. I had just started taking photos again and all I saw was blurry, grainy, technically incorrect images. Ella peeked over my shoulder and she was SO excited. She said MAMA, LOOK IT’S BABY ELLA!! AND THAT’S MY DAD! I WAS SO SMALL. (This kid teaches me so much!) And then I saw all of these in a brand new light.

Warning - there are a lot of photos. This was a week long trip and it isn’t even all of them.

I’m so excited to go visit the island again when we can. I have a wait list of clients to book and a wait list of family to see!
