"Heaven's Kiss"
swipe for a new poem 🌊

So softly the rainbow kisses the sea. It's gentle colours a caress upon steadily rolling waves. A reminder that as life pushes and pulls in a rhythm sometimes we are connected to and sometimes we aren't, that we are never alone. That you are never alone; but safely and softly held by something so much greater.

This photo is one of my favourite images from my NOURISH exhibition. When I photographed it I was struggling to adapt to a big move, missing my loved ones and feeling a deep loneliness that would take me many months to shake as I carefully rebuilt. The subtle rainbow, the gentle blues, the calm, rolling waves became a part of me as I walked down to this beach by myself many, many times. I would whisper my worries to the waves and remind myself that even here, a world away from the life I knew, I was still connected to that push and pull, that give and take. That ebb and flow.

Years later, I look at this image and am reminded amidst a season of constant change—particularly during times of great loneliness and self-doubt—that I am exactly where I am meant to be, and that the universe always has a greater plan. That the little strip of colour falling into the waves is still a part of me—a part of us all—during both times when we are lost, and times when we are found.

I’ll never get over the feeling of holding my images in my hands—like cradling a tangible memory or dream. Moments captured in art that transcend time and space, and connect me to family, friends, lovers and strangers. The beautiful thing about sharing printed work is seeing how each piece resonates with the person it travels to—whether hung on a wall, or passed hand-to-hand in a magazine. Savoured slowly over time, or shared family-style by curious eyes. 

I’m beyond excited to reveal that a curated selection of my landscapes has been published in a special issue of DOCU: Photography Print Magazine. Flipping through these 20 images is a reminder of how photos were meant to be viewed—in the proverbial flesh. It’s juicy, raw, real and so, so beautiful. 

If your hands would like to hold my art, I’m offering a small batch of signed magazines. I am also launching my limited edition prints from my NOURISH exhibition on July 20th, which is also the opening of my solo NOURISH exhibition at cSPACE Marda Loop. DM me tcSPACE Marda Loopon a magazine, or to join the launch waitlist.

little sun spot
hiding
golden dewdrop
honeyed glow
one of billions
your hopeful shine
fleeting
coating tiny hands with sticky yellow
a magical paint
your first gift
your last
a wish
seeds blowing asunder
finding new places to rest
planting hopes whispered
from pudgy fingers
thick rolls clasping tight
little heart wishing with all his might

Looking back on the memories made in 2025 I couldn’t believe so many wonderful things could happen in one year—from small moments in the kitchen to big moments at work, meeting so many incredible people along the way, and cherishing every second spent with the people I love. My heart is exceptionally full of gratitude moving into 2026.

Some cutie moments from the last year:

1. My first exhibition. Seeds are already planted for my next project.

2. Making snow angels with my little angel.

3. You know I’m having fun when the double chin comes out.

4. Adventures on the Island with tiny and the fam.

5. Baking with tiny using Grandma’s cookbook, circa 1960.

6. Teaching my second ever workshop (food photography ofc).

7. A smol bat.

8. Deconstructed apple pie.

9. Adventures in small-town Ontario with tiny and the fam.

10. Tiny cousins in Toronto.

11. Two besties with very different tastes in books.

12. My favourite flower with my favourite human.

13. A tiny conquering mountains.

14. Favourite things with my favourite people.

15. Little hands and wildflowers.

16. Soulmate.

17. Killer hairstyles.

18. We battled many monsters that day.

19. The world must look infinite to him.

20. My other child, whom I also love very much.

The day I took these photos I needed to be alone. I needed quiet. My heart needed respite and a chance to breathe and feel close to someone I had loved so deeply and had recently lost. I remember stepping out into the cold, bundled up to my nose, the tears leaking out of my eyes quick to freeze. My warm breath spilled forth like a cloud, it's residue freezing in my hair, and all around was nothing but silence and beauty.

Fresh snow blanketed the ground, and the only footprints to mark it's pristine surface were my own. Frost covered each branch and pinecone and blade of grass like icing sugar. Decadent and resplendent and very, very cold. I relished in it.

As I walked, occasionally snow would drift off the many trees in a smattering of sparkles, like faerie dust falling from the branches. The only life I could see were a cheerful banditry of chickadees flitting about playfully. I couldn't help but smile at their carefree joy.

I walked and walked until my cheeks were numb and my feet were sore and I felt held by the quiet. There is no stillness like a solitary winter's day. And in that stillness I'm certain I could feel my angel, still with me. In the joyful chickadees and sparkling frost and perfect snow. In my heart, always.

Part 3/3: I'm utterly obsessed with the drama of this vanilla layer cake contrasting with the burgundy and purple florals against a black backdrop. While assembling this scene, I was really inspired by Dutch Baroque masters (like Rembrandt) to create a simple but beautiful still life. Baking is something that has consistently brought me joy and gotten me out of many creative ruts. And of course, eating the cake always lightens my mood and heart.

Between each layer of light, fluffy vanilla cake, I generously spread strawberry jam and vanilla whipped cream (my favourite). As you'll see swiping through, my little one not only approved of the cake, but also created his own photos of the scene. ♡

Part 1/3: As the New Year rolled around, the truth is I couldn't have been happier to say goodbye to 2024. While there were many beautiful moments that I cherish and it was certainly a year of growth and learning, it was also a challenging year where I experienced multiple heartbreaks. The worst of which occurred just before 2024 came to a close.

From this place of grief and healing and realizing there is so much I need to let go of, I have also realized that I want to spend more time creating art that makes my heart glow — while building a life full of warmth, beauty, love, good food, creative expression and vibrant experiences for my son.

Working from a space of interconnectedness between my art and life, I want to create with joy and expression and a sense of wonder and learning. And I want to reserve this space to share more of that work.

I'll absolutely be continuing my lifestyle and commercial services, but will also be sharing some more of the work that sparks my curiosity here. I'm reopening my print shop, (details to come soon), expanding some of the services I offer, and all around embracing a more authentic, varied photography pursuit.

This shoot was a good example of integrating my passion, the things I love and learning something new. I've always loved baking and cooking and photographing my creations, but stopped a lot of this work when I decided to focus on portraiture. Returning to this space — while diving into floral arranging and stying — was immensely satisfying. While details of the shoot are to follow in my next couple of posts (delineating a clear break in my feed for the sake of ~aesthetic~), swipe to see some of the sweet little bouquets I put together (my first time!) as well as a little BTS from my upcoming reel. (Thanks Mom for being the best assistant, ily 🤍.)

Lovely little moments from the most loving maternity shoot. Spending time with Lorena and Tom is a beautiful reminder of how timeless love is. Their's is a love built to last. The tenderness, the joy, the gentle teasing and easy laughter. Tom and Lorena are the kind of couple that makes your heart happy just thinking about them. From wandering through their beautiful garden to snuggling in the grass, documenting this session was an utter joy. Thank you .bylorena and Tom for your trust in me. ♡
