Little "Krita" is expecting again! YAY! So excited that their will be another Peters joining the family!
I was super excited to receive the call about little Chloe entering the world. I remember when I got the call at work from Krista's mother. Of course I cried. I cried all the joy and relief that little Chloe had arrived safe and sound. You see, Ashley, is like a brother of sorts to me. I have one brother, and I grew up with all of his friends. Ashley being our first cousin, was around home a lot and it seemed quite normal to think of him as an addition to our family. Chloe was dreamt about by Ashley & Krista long before her arrival. We always knew a Chloe was going to arrive, just when was the question.
So now we are awaiting the arrival of a new Peters. The last part of Krista's pregnancy was a bit more difficult than with Chloe and she was put on bed rest until the day the new baby arrives, which has now been announced as June 29th. We had to do the maternity shoot in the hospital because of the situation, and it didn't seem to stop any of them from smiling!

So on this tour day I head into the small town of Zurich to visit Sandra Regier's studio in the heart of the small town. I was so excited when we drove up and I seen her very own sign outside the door. It is quite a thing for a photographer to have their own space to create and focus on work. On this day though, I don't think Sandra would have got much work done with me there, I was so excited, asking a million questions and taking in the beauty of this workspace. Sandra's studio is two floors and beautiful. The first floor is her meeting and office area complete with a kitchen, bathroom and dining area. The second floor is a complete shooting area with a fireplace and lots of natural light. I instantly fell in love with her studio.
After we explored her studio, Jodi, Sandra and I went exploring in the small town of Bay field. Of course when three photographers go exploring, their will be photos taken. Sandra is very photogenic and so I made these images of her to complete our touring portion of the day. Stay tuned for a fun family photo shoot with Sandra's family - all 7 of them!!!

Little Beth. Well I finally got the chance to meet the up and coming "next big thing"!!! Well I had "met" Beth about 2 years ago via Krista Jefferson but only virtually gave her hugs. Just this past weekend, I got the chance to give her the real deal! I am so glad to have finally met you, and chat with you and to be able to tell you in person, how much your work impresses me. Beth & her boyfriend Tyler were paparazzi'd with all of us photographers at the party! I loved getting the chance to photograph them, they are both so very photogenic!
Beth has recently just graduated from Sheridan Tech at the top of her class. Her winning portfolio just won her a brand new Canon Mark ll. I think her teachers seen the potential in her creative eye as soon as they seen her first photo, which makes me sooo happy for her! Beth's final portfolio was theme's surrounding women, emotions and what we all go through. Congratulations Beth on your amazing achievements thus far. I can only imagine where your talent will bring you in the future, and love that you will deserve it!

So the past weekend while on my little photography tour in Smalltown, Ontario at Krista Jefferson's she hosted a party for area Photographers & friends. It was so amazing to finally meet some of the people I had talked to and interacted with over the social networks like facebook & Twitter for the last few years. It felt a bit surreal to have hung out with such great talented people. Of course when 30 photographers get together we all talk about our favorite subject and the camera's come out! This was great because the information sharing, the lens sharing and idea sharing were flowing greatly!
Some of the girls at the party I hold very dearly to my heart. I am sure once I get to know some of the others they will as well. These photographers have become more than just photographers to me. They have become inspirational people and most of all friends. All of these girls invited me into their homes to stay with their families and talked to me about business, life & things that happen day to day. They all made me feel like I was part of their families whether it was sitting down to the supper table or getting a good night hug from their children. I could get extremely sappy, and I had done that many times through out the last few days. My heart & eyes have been misty in a good way as the week has gone by. I cannot thank these girls for introducing me to more passion for my life, my family & my business than ever imagined possible.
