summer reflections part 3

for the first time EVAR i attempted to grow tomatoes in the backyard. they haven't done too bad, surprisingly enough! i've even made salsa and NINE varieties of jam!



i've also been pretty busy photographically speaking, with outings with the hamilton flickr group, a wedding photography workshop, and photoshoots. and i have a contract position taking school portraits and sports photos this fall while still working at my old job one day a week. AND i start a studio lighting course next week.



this summer has actually been pretty stellar and i'm sad to say goodbye. but the fall brings new things and exciting destinations...

the road trip was incredible, i got to see parts of this country i've never seen before and spend some quality girl time.


being semi-employed this summer has also afforded me the luxury of chillin with my dog, working on my tan (ha!), pool time with heather & miss emma bean, and reading.

as i sift through photos, i'm saddened that this summer has rapidly come to an end! just a semi-small update for those who don't know, i quit my admin job in the spring and promptly headed off on a trans-canada road trip with two of the hottest chickies this side of the atlantic. we left hamilton on june 27 and three cars, five stormy (but bear-free) nights in tents, two much-deserved hotel stays, and ZERO moose later, we arrived in vancouver!
