St. Joe's Women's Centre

It is Holiday Portrait time at the Women's Centre!
My final year working at St. Joe's we started what has become an annual event - Holiday Portraits! This is the 4th year we are putting on this wonderful event. St. Joe's is a day program for women and children who are homeless or at risk.
They offer a variety of services and programming.
Marsha, Director of St. Joe's, organizes volunteer Hair Stylists and volunteer Make up Artists and catering and we make a day of makeovers and portraits for the Women and children who use the center!
I always look forward to this day, it is a great day and so much for the women!
St. Joe's is always in need of donations, but particularly this time of year.
Please visit: http://www.stjoeswomenscentre.org/ and donate toiletries, clothing, toys and or any gift certificates or YOUR TIME!
Everything and any time is always in need and so very much appreciated!
If anyone is interested in helping with the Holiday Portrait Day on December 6th please feel free to email me! Thanks!
Here is a portrait from last year, a Mom and her daughter who come to the Centre!

Holiday Portraits.

It's time! One of my favorite times of year, the holidays, spending time at home with family, catching up with friends, eating and of-course portraits!
This is the time of year I start getting ready to do holiday portraits for clients, and my family.
I was going through last years dresses and thinking about what to do this year..... fun for me and hopefully the girls too!
Ella loves getting dressed up for the camera and this morning while trying on last years outfits did a shoot with her very best friend, Cocker Spaniel!
Here is a shot from this morning! Enjoy! And I look forward to a November and December full of families for their portraits!
