Small girls - Big hearts

Meet Jenna and Kiera. They have been pledging all birthday money to spinal cord research. I remember a birthday at their age being something wonderfully big and exciting. To give a big piece of that away...well, it’s inspiring. Their inspirational story is being told in an upcoming magazine published by the University of Calgary and I was fortunate enough to be the one they chose for the photography. It has been a pleasure to meet and work with you Robert, Lisa and especially you Kiera and you Jenna.

Okanagan Life Magazine – Jan/Feb 2009

The January/February issue of Okanagan Life Magazine is now available. I was privileged to be involved in three stories for this issue. First, I met with some of the wonderful Kelowna hospice volunteers, providing the images for “Death is a Beautiful Life” – a touching piece written by Ross Freake.


Freestone Spirit Photography also provided images for “Green with Inspiration”, a story of vision, commitment and love of a wonderful Okanagan couple, Colleen and Darrell Bachman. (Kickspike Website)


Thirdly, we began what I hope to be a regular column called “One Day”. One day, one place, one experience – all in the spirit of sharing.


Thank you everyone!

Recently Wild

As the title suggests, I want to present some recent images fitting a WILDerness theme.
First, here are a couple of Bighorn rams’ figuring out who’s got the "rights'" - taken while I was visiting the Chilcotin area of British Columbia in November:





The majestic Chilcotin River (I will be coming back!):


I want to thank this particularly beautiful Okanagan whitetail deer fawn. She was waiting for her pals to join her before vanishing:


Also, here are a couple of backyard visitors that we have been privileged to watch in the past couple of months:




Thanks for visiting!
