In the past few weeks I have been a social butterfly. Networking and getting out and meeting fabulous photographers and local business owners in beautiful Victoria. I attended a wonderful conference in Vancouver for photographers called Image Quest which helped me examine my business in brand new ways. I was so inspired by the incredible line up of speakers: Jasmine Star, Miranda and Riley of Blue Olive Photography, Dane Sanders, and Mitche Graf to name a few. I was able to network even more and finally meet some of my amazing ‘internet’ friends in person! FINALLY!

A few months ago I met with Karen McNeil an awesome local photographer, who has quickly become a new friend Karen recently hosted a fabulous networking event called Photo Social, with her business partner Jen Steele of Bella Boudoir. It was a huge hit and I hope to attend more of their events in the future.

It is always incredibly flattering when another photographer asks you to take their picture, so I was honoured when Karen asked me to take some fun headshots with her out in the “country”. I believe I am a cowgirl at heart so this session was right up my alley. One of my own personal prized possessions is a pair of my mom’s cowboy boots that she has had since she was 16. I LOVE those boots !! So a country chic session out in some stunning farmland … um YES PLEASE. I am a huge lover of using ‘props’ in my photo sessions, so the fact that Karen brought along a vintage camera and trunk I knew we were off to a good start.

Well part one of the results are below. Let me know what you think!!
