West Kelowna family photographer Gellatly Nut fam outdoor lifestyle session Australia black whiteOk, so, I love this beautiful family!!   They brought their precious little girl all the way from Australia to introduce her to her Canadian family and friends. I count myself incredibly lucky to be included on this list.  They spent some time in the Okanagan so of course I had to go see them. We spent part of our day relaxing at the Gellatly Nut Farm in West Kelowna, the perfect place for a family photo session.  They are so easy in front of my camera, beautifully carefree and genuine, and it’s always a bit like magic. Such a great day!!

These guys are an example of what I love most about this profession… I meet amazing people.  And some of them become great friends.  I met them at a wedding in the Okanagan at one of my first weddings in the area after moving down here from northern BC.   We hit it off, and when Emma asked if I’d consider going “all the way” to Australia to photograph their wedding I was all over it. So my husband and I flew to Melbourne for their wedding and spent time with them and the first couple we photographed while we holidayed over there. And they truly are amazing people that we count among our friends.  One of the many reasons I feel I truly have the best job ever!!
