The Secret Garden

Summer is always such a fun and busy time that a whole week can go by and we don't even notice. With summer nearing its end, I am glad to bring you this post so you can enjoy the beauty of summer before she decides to leave us for another year. Along with Jennifer, her sister Heather and their families, we visited this secret garden.

As most of you know, it's not really a secret garden. It's a place open to the public and has many very colorful floral displays, a gorgeous walking trail and tea room, to name a few of the features offered. Check out the link below for more information on MUN Botanical garden.

I hadn't been there in many years, but I assure you, it won't be the last time visiting. But next time I think I will bring my family. So without further delay, here are some photos from the session.

Sweet Shot Tuesday

I usually post people for Sweet Shot Tuesday, but this tiny little flower grabbed my attention the other day!  My son Carter brought seeds home from school at the end of the school year and he's (I've) been nurturing it into this sweet little plant.  Not quite sure what it is but I loved the little tendrils at the top and the neat little water drop reflection. So here is my sweet shot for this week!!

A fine crowd

                            

This past weekend I had such fun photographing this gang of kiddies!!  I could have said gaggle, or brood or team...LOL.  Needless to say, my friend Lorraine, has her hands full!  But how can you go wrong with these four gorgeous brown-eyed beauties!! Here are some photos from the session at a lovely local trail.

                            

The blog has gone to the dogs

Ok, so the blog is not literally gone to the dogs but I have a cutie pie here that I'm sure you will enjoy.  Her name is Brandi and she's a sweet little girl who is full of affection, loves life and has a couple of wonderful owners/parents.  I also know she is very fond of trout!!  Just recently Brandi (and her parents) got some very sad news.  Brandi has a heart condition.   Although you'd never say it by the way she went after the skateboard during out shoot, she becomes very short of breath when she does any big amount of exercise.  Her little body gets overworked because her heart can't handle the exertion.  So her mom asked me if I would take some photos of Brandi and her family on her favorite walking trail that unfortunately, she can't enjoy very much any more.  So here is Brandi and her "mom and dad".

Sweet Shot Tuesday

I had a crazy, busy week working at my day (nightshift) job and then on Saturday assisting a fabulous local photographer http://www.lori-moss.com/ .  I did, however, manage to get some cute shots of this little lady!  Earlier in the week her mom wanted some photos done with her two beautiful girls and I have an earlier post with more of the session. 

I just finished editing the photos and came across this little Sweet Shot taken at the end of that day!!
