Finally a brand new website!

I have finally finished my new website and blog...it's over here if you'd like to update your reader and follow me over here

bad blogger

So yeah I'm pretty bad at keeping up with a blog it would seem. One of my 2011 resolutions is a new website for studiodpi.com as well as a blog that you'll find updated regularly.

Once the new site is up and running and blog I'll post again here to let you know.... that is if anyone is actually reading this (crickets...)

Snow in April?

I really don't mind watching the snow fall when it means I don't have to drive to far in it. As awesome as March has been sans snow and the wonderful weather we're all expecting this weekend it should be noted that this:

...is what we had April 6, 2009... might not be over just yet but at least it will be picturesque if it does decide to snow this month. And as you can see Daytona really loves the snow :-) It generally causes him to bounce around the yard like Tigger... just not on his tail.

Happy Easter Everyone!

Is summer here yet? : Tobermory Photographer

As the sun continues to teases us this week and the warmer air keeps getting a little warmer each day I know my husband is gearing up for an awesome second summer of scuba diving. He's taken to scuba like a fish to water and is loving it. More trips to Tobermory ahead... probably Kingston and possibly Halifax if our schedules will allow for it.

Tobermory, ON

We headed to Tobermory for Jamie's last couple of dives for the 2009 season on the Thanksgiving long weekend. It was pretty nice heading out and at the first dive spot but by the second it was freakin' cold, windy and rocky! The Maritimer in my was doing good though but I was still pretty happy to set my two feet firmly on land when we got back.

And no I haven't tried scuba diving yet... I'm not ruling it out but just not feeling as excited about the idea of so much water over my head.

What about you? Are you or someone you know a scuba diver? Any recommendations on great dive spots, ship wrecks we should check out this summer?

Barrie Newborn Photographer : My nephew Issac

If you're a fan over on facebook you've already seen all the pictures I've been sharing off my little nephew, Issac. I'm a first time auntie and I was so happy to make the trip to NB to visit my sister and Issac before he grew too much!

Just absolutely in 'aw' of him and how content he was. My sister has fallen right into the role of mommy and is doing such a wonderful job. And it was just fun to be able to spend some quite time with them and hold him while he slept. Something I don't get to do with my clients little ones... lol... that might be kind of creepy, no? I'm thinking probably.... hopefully it will be my turn to become a mommy soon.

Happy Monday Everyone!

Barrie/Orillia Pregnancy Photographer : Patiently waiting...

This little one has decided he or she is pretty comfy exactly where they are but hopefully they'll decide to make their appearance soon. I'm sure your mom and dad can't wait to meet you!

A fantastic session and another fur-kid who was just too cute. He was also oh so happy to have them home after their adventures in Australia.

Congratulations to you both!

Cuter then I don't even know what!

Jamie is always up before I am and can you guess who will take his spot as soon as he's done with a morning pee?! .... The dog. Daytona will race upstairs to jump up and take Jamie's spot in bed. I wonder if maybe he thinks he needs to race because he has to get there before Jamie does? lol

Either way it's pretty freaking cute, don't you think?

Just the fact that he's laying ON the pillow as most humans would gets me every single time!

iPhone App ready for your proofs

You may or may not know that I LOVE my iPhone... as in I could possibly have a problem. If you asked my husband Jamie he'd likely tell you (while laughing) that I touch my iPhone more then I touch him. He's joking... I promise.

That said of course I was very excited to see the company I use for online proofing make the leap to the iPhone as well. They've come up with an app that will allow you to view your online proof albums via your iPhone! Love it!

All you need to do is download the app to your iPhone, open and enter your Event ID provided by STUDIO dpi!


Just another way to share your images with family and friends while you're on the go and even place your order!

Dog... baby's best friend : Newborn Baby Photographer

She kept a close eye on me and the door where baby O was having a little break for a snack and cuddle with mom and dad.

Baby O.. is O-so cute! : Angus Portrait Photography

Baby O's newborn session was perfection with a drop of sugar on top! Such a great afternoon and he didn't mind the big flashing light so long as mom and dad stayed really close.




As always I'm so appreicative of my clients who allow me to shoot in their homes. I beleive that bringing home baby would be full of emotions and by doing the session in your home I think it's just one less thing to worry about and makes moms & dads more relaxed so baby is too!


You guys where fantastic!
