Burgers for Brittney

So what do you do when Karen Moore asks you to do a favour??? You say, where and when!!!

Meet the most precious and courageous Brittney!!! She is a spunky, gorgeous little eight year old who is undergoing the the battle against cancer right now! Karen and a couple of her friends from Brittney's school decided to throw a "little" fundraiser to help out the family with the gruesome medical costs that can occur when you least expect it! That is where BURGERS FOR BRITTNEY was dreamed up and oh what a night it was!!!

The silent auction.
So guess who won the motor bike(one of the door prizes)??? I am SO NOT KIDDING!! Little Miss Brittney herself!! What a joy it was when her name was drawn for this bike!!!
Oh...and she can sing too....
Daddy's little girl!
So, in conclusion, I was asked to head out and do some photography for this wonderful evening! I thought I was doing everyone the favour......NOT SO! Brittney, the pleasure was all mine!! I am a richer person for having met you! Your zest for life and smile will stay with me always. I wish you a speedy recovery, I KNOW you can do it! Blessings. ~Natalie Bilson

The Wedding of the Century!

Introducing Mr and Mrs Jamie and Lana Hoover! Married June 28th in Edmonton, Alberta.

For those of you who do not have the privilege of knowing her, Lana is my twin. Ok, so we are not related by blood, but for me, we are twins of the heart. I have known Lana since my diaper days and have always felt a deep connection to her. I have always felt her pains and joys throughout her life and to share in this, her wedding day, was truly a great joy for me. Lana has a contagious smile and a sense of humour that will put you in 'depends' long before your time. Here are a few of my favourite shots of their special day......

Why what could possibly break up a kiss from this lovely couple you ask....oh..just a TRAIN COMING DOWN THE TRACKS!!! Jeesh, how's a gal supposed to do a photoshoot!!!




This photo should have a "viewer discretion" title by it.....hee!



Meet the most adorable children, Carly , Kris, Gavin and Sam! These gorgeous four belong to Lana and Jamie and I must say that I was so thrilled to have met them and I only wish that my suitcase was bigger so that I was able to smuggle them all home with me! You guys are absolute GEMS!







This photo was taken at midnight and would you just look at how beautiful the two of them still sparkle. I on the other hand am on the other side of the camera for a very good reason!!My deepest Thanks to the entire Hoover family for inviting me to share in their day, it was a true honour for me. Jamie, I am not easily impressed, but I loved you from our first hand shake. I look so forward to watching you all grow together in love!

Emily Alexandra

Fishy crackers for breakfast and singing to the Wiggles.  Dragging blankie through the garden and drawing chalk faces on the sidewalk.  Dancing in Costco and tucking the 'little people' into their plastic beds at night....Emily, thank you for your curiosity and energy that fills my every day!

Brothers!

Meet my very favourite CHASE!  We met one afternoon at the park and I had one of my famous "visions" of him sitting in the tall grass, looking up at me and posing as I snapped away with my camera.....UMMMM...yeah!!  Chase had visions of his own!  There were flowers to be picked, dirt to be dug and for goodness sakes weeds to be pulled!  What WAS I thinking??!




Alright folks....look at this face and remember this name!  This is Kayden and mark my words, this handsome man is your next NHL superstar!!!  You read it here first...don't forget!!  Oh and by the way....Kayden you ROCKED on your bridge shots!!!!!
