We went down to Lonsdale Quay on Saturday to take in some of the Winter Fest activities that are coinciding with the Vancouver 2010 Olympics. It was dismal and rainy and not much was going on, but we entertained ourselves, the kids got free fries from McDonald’s, and there is this Russian Yacht docked there that you can take tours of, or eat.

Yes, I am simplifying. In my life, in my work….wish dating were simpler, but oh well, I do what I can. In that vein, I am simplifying things at Life In Stills. I’ve modified my packages to make it easier for my clients, and as a result, easier for me. Win/win for everyone. Take a look at our site, under portrait pricing for more info.

The torch relay came by our school today, rainy day that it was, but the school was on fire with excitement. All of North Vancouver was, it seems. We had the torch relay team come into the school for a briefing and preparation, and there were some songs, some cheers, and the bubbling sense of excitement, threatening to spill over as we waited for the flame to arrive. I will admit, I have not been one... [more]
It was raining and cold, but Jeremy and Karen’s wedding went off without a hitch. It was a small, intimate affair. Mid afternoon, stand up reception, and given the weather, it was actually a bonus that the whole thing was held at the Holiday Inn in North Vancouver. This made picture taking easier, as we didn’t have to deal with running out in the rain, under umbrellas. We had only a short... [more]
