2019 has been a wonderful, magical year for me! It was a year filled with lots of fun, laughter and most importantly, LOVE! 2019 was the year I fell head over heels in love with my incredible partner, Flare, and we began our adventures together!
I worked hard this year at setting up the Dolly Shots Photography studio, but due to circumstances beyond my control I wasn’t able to open my new business or studio fully. (Goals for next year!) I did, however, have a plethora of wonderful shoots and had the chance to photograph some of my favourite performers! I witnessed two more amazing friends tie the knot with each other in a beautiful Jewish ceremony followed by a dance party complete with Drag Queens and the Time Warp! I also welcomed two new family members this year, the sweet and rotten kittens; Luna and Artemis!
This year was a trip, this whole decade was a trip! It’s been fun to look back on all the good times (and bad) and reminding myself how far I’ve come! Look out 2020, I’m coming for you!
Happy New Year!!

This week I was visited by a demon who convinced me to cleanse my soul in a bathtub filled with the blood of my enemies. Luckily for you Lunar Replicant was present as well as another special guest…
Happy Thanksgiving my Canadian friends!
I am very thankful for the amazing collaborators I work with, including the incredibly talented photographer, Lunar Replicant! I hope you enjoy some more dreamy photos from our latest shoot!
I’m wading through the water this week trying to enjoy the last few moments of summer sun!
I have another dreamy photoset to share this week from my friends Khristianina and Katherine Bermudo. Khristianina of Barefaced Creative Photography did a fabulous job capturing the mood of the day as we shot at Scarborough Bluffs last summer. Enjoy!
