Welcome!

Thank you for coming to my blog and website! It means a lot to me. The world of blogging has become a part of my every day life and I love it. You will see everything on my blog...some of my recent photo shoots, some of what's going on in my world and some of what's happening in other peoples lives. It is a true reflection of me well, minus the spelling mistakes.

I started blogging a couple of years ago thinking it would be a great way to give my clients instant gratification. (who doesn't want to see their pictures ASAP after a shoot?) I never expected it to get as personal as it has...life took a turn and right after I started blogging one of my friends got pregnant with Sextuplets and I walked through the pregancy, birth, loss and triumph with their family...my blog became a place to share and meet friends! I've never turned back.

Of course, when people are getting to know me my name is a big topic. It is actually pronounced "No-Amy" (and yes, I've heard every joke running through your head right now!) Here's the story: I was born in Montevideo, Uruguay and my parents were trying to be nice to me by naming me a Spanish name but then changed their plans and moved back to Canada 16 months later. I've had to explain my name ever since. It's me and I wouldn't change it for anything but, I am sorry for the inconvience...it's worth it though!

I'm passionate about a lot of things but I have to say there's nothing like weddings. Have fun going through the galleries and slideshows on the blog. I hope it inspires you to call me, or pick up your camera and start shooting.

These are a few of my favorite things:

I love my husband Matt. My soulmate and perfect match. I was made for loving him.

Taking the perfect shot and showing it...seeing the person light up melts my heart every time.

I love my little girl Adriah. There's no one in the world like her. She inspires me to be kind.

I love to sing and sing loud! I'm a front row girl so i can belt it out and no one cares!

I love my little boy Leyton. I could into those eyes forever. Just thinking of him puts a smile on my face.

I love Musicals and I'm not ashamed to admit the I own quite a few!

I love the Starbucks drink "London Fog." If you haven't tried it yet...now is the time.

I love my family...there's nothing like family.

I love jeans the fit.

I love friends that are family!

I love spicy food and traveling anymore to try it!

looking forward to an extended birthday celebration...this week and next week too! 2 days ago

Napping.

After having Adriah (5 years ago) people told me all the time, “Sleep when your baby sleeps!” I never took naps cause I had much better things to do -like clean, sort and tidy. I think there was a part of my “driven” self that didn’t want to admit that I needed to slow down and rest because of having a newborn and losing sleep every night.

After Leyton I wanted to nap so bad but I had tons of the things to do like edit, call or email clients, clean the house and PACK – we moved that year! I got over-tired and it effected everything. I don’t know what I would’ve done differently because he was born right before my busiest season and I had to follow through with commitments I had made before I even knew I was pregnant. It wasn’t an easy transition for me and it’s what made me realize I NEED a maternity leave after every baby!

With Clara my goal is to take a nap every day. I need it! Yes, there are still lots of other things to do but, I’m different this time. I’m willing to see that napping makes me a better parent and wife – that’s more important to me then a clean house. (Don’t get me wrong – it’s not easy to look at the dust growing on my blinds but, I’m willing to overlook it for a season.) This time around I’m more settled in myself…willing to slow down and not see it as weakness or failure BUT as a necessity for recovering quickly.

I’m feeling great! I love being a mom of three…it suits me! Good thing, eh?

Olympic Fenzy!

I’m so loving bring on maternity leave during the Olympics! Every night I curl up with my new little bundle and take in the competition. It’s amazing. Everything about the Olympics draws me in…the competition, the world coming together, big stars rising, little stars getting a chance to be seen and heard, the touching stories behind each athlete…need i go on?

Canada is in my heart and I watched the opening ceremonies with pride and tons of emotion. Being Canadian but, living in America makes me cheer for both countries. My daughter is learning to do that as well. It works out well that we are both cheer leaders at heart! Adriah loves screaming “Go USA! U-S-A” throughout the whole race thinking she helps the person through the TV. So cute!

these days I’m learning the rhythm of three kids, enjoying everything little about Clara, trying to take naps every afternoon…enjoying friends and family – sharing our family with theirs. It’s a special time where time slows down but, everything is happening so fast – I can’t believe she’ll be 3 weeks on Wednesday. I’m loving my life even though I’m super tired and my brain is mush.

If you haven’t watched the games yet turn on your TV, press record, and watch it everything – but the commercials. then write and tell me what’s your favorite!
