Saturdays are for Sisters.

Okay, let's get one thing straight, every day is for sisters.

Sisters are The Best.

The

Very

Very

Very

Best.

For anyone who knows me on any level, the love I have for my sister is one of the most defining things about me. Like top in the 5 most important details you ever need to know about one LBGG.

We've always been closer than close, like Batman and Robin, Lennon and McCartney, peanut butter and chocolate.

Through the messiness and wonders of our lives, we've always had each other and it's been just right.

I was able to fly out to see her last weekend, for her birthday, for a much-needed catch up, for more sister memories.

It

was

perfection.

We talked, sweated (hellooooooo Atlanta), ate the most wonderful food (I dream of it still), had sweet hangs with her roomie Amanda and dog Caesar, saw Lord Huron in concert, went shopping and started on "Friends" season 1.

I also met The Iberian Pig which gets its own line because it was just that special.

The one thing I did not do was take many photos. I finally got out my camera on the last evening, so the following is quite a narrow look at our time.

But at least you get to see how pretty she is.

And while I'm on the note of her wonders, check out the cast and crew list for "Ant Man" for Catherine Greene. She's officially famous.

And (whilst I am more of the "anti-smoking" train than not), I do love a good clove cigarette. Since they used to be illegal in the states-don't be alarmed-my previous memories of a sweet indulge are staged in faraway exotic places like South Africa, Amsterdam or New Zealand.

Finding them in Atlanta was the icing on the proverbial cake. 

Sisterrrrrrrrr, Cathern, Elizabeth, Catty G (aren't we glad we stopped that one ages ago), you're forever my fave.

I'm so proud of you and love you and a million more mushy things in between.

xoxo.

p.s. Would you be a doll and show Caesar my photo weekly so neither of you forget me? Thanks love.

From The Intern Corner // Favourite Location

Happy Tuesday everyone!! 

I was born and raised in Brantford, which for those of you who know Brantford it's not the most ideal town for a photographer. (I mean don't get me wrong it does has some nice features)! I don't personally own a studio so for me all of my shoots are done on location. When I was younger that location was always my back yard since I didn't have any means of transportation. 

Now that I am a totally independent woman (or I like to think so anyways) with my very own car I have explored Brantford and all that it has to offer! I have two locations that stand out to me, and are my go to locations when all else fails! The Mt. Pleasant ponds, they are very secluded and they have a lot to offer. From beautiful forested areas, to bridges, ponds, creeks, and fields.

Here is a photo that I took at the Mt. Pleasant ponds.

Putting into practice the lighting and composition knowledge I have learned from interning with Jono and Laynie Co. A Toronto/Niagara based photography and videography company.

My other favourite location to use is the rail trail running by the Grand River. There is a specific spot where the trees have overgrown and fall over the pathway. In the fall it is especially pretty with all the orange surrounding you. 

Here is a photo that I have taken on the rail trail.

Here is a photo I took previous to interning for Jono and Laynie Co. a Toronto/Niagara based photography and videography company.

Both of those locations offer wonderful lighting, and an array of different options for back drops. Even when I'm off shooting in New York City (dreaming big here) I will never forget these two very beautiful locations!

Sincerely, your summer intern, 
Steph! :)
