Kind Words
- ” Patty has been taking pictures of our family, which includes four children
and two dogs, over the past four years. It has become a bi-annual tradition
for Patty to photograph our family in order to record the growth of our
children with seasonal changes as the backdrop for each picture. Patty has
such a relaxed and informal approach to taking pictures that she does a
fantastic job of capturing the kids – and dogs – in very natural, unguarded
moments. Our kids look forward to their sessions with Patty and the end
result is gorgeous.” - Mary and Christopher Davies

- ” I think his exact words were “she makes having your picture taken fun“.
I cannot thank Patty enough for making the experience an enjoyable one.
My son Landen and I met Patty and her assistant on a picture perfect
winter day to have his 8 yr photos taken. I am sure like most boys…
getting dressed up and keeping their hair neat was probably the last
thing he wanted to do on a Sunday, and even though he was apprehensive
to start… he was all laughs and smiles when it was over. She captured
his spirit and energy in every shot. I am already looking forward to his
9 yr photo session. Thank you again.” - Tanya Sweet

We had been meaning to have family pictures done for some time and just never got around to it with our busy schedules. We then found out my mother was terminally ill. Patty suggested that we get our pictures done while my mother was still well enough. It was a brilliant suggestion but we weren’t sure how they would turn out under the circumstances. It was a very challenging photo session for us but Patty and her assistant kept it light and fun and kept everyone relaxed. She never got upset, even when our 2 year old headed to the bushes! She found a way to make our pictures an enjoyable experience. We are so thankful that she encouraged us to do the pictures. They were absolutely fabulous and now that my mother is gone we have some really great photos of her with all of us. I am sure we wouldn’t have had them done if it had not been for Patty.

From day one of our meeting with this wondurful woman (referred to by an amazing mutal friend) we clicked but then again how can you not get along with Patty? She made us (me the bride) so comfortable and took my worries away (you know how families can be). The engagement shoot was amazing she taught me how to pose and believe me that is a task in itself, then our wedding day came which was a down pour of a day. Patty walks through the door it honestly was instant sunshine, she acts as if nothing is happening outside and the humidity doesn’t exist. The calmness in her voice is constant. So then it is ceremony time don’t forget it’s pouring outside and we have an outdoor ceremony with my groom arriving in a canoe!!! Still the comfort and ease in Patty made this so easy. It is the weather and we will adjust to it. No we can’t do this or we can’t do that her ideas were endless and so fun, and she didn’t care if she became soaking wet. Who does that? So the boys arrive in the canoe then it was my turn to walk down the incredible long pathway and there was Patty she was everywhere I don’t know how she did it. The shots she captured were fantastic. The sun came out just in time for the actual ceremony. A few months later we TRASH THE DRESS how awesome is that you get to put your dress back on and feel so comfortable and not one single worry because the day is done, well the only worry may have been the river I sat in at the end of October. But who sat in it with me? Patty! So she is right in there taking shots and talking me through the numbness however the special coffee she made me helped this process. I couldn’t have imagined anyone else taking our photos and making our day that much more amazing and the best part is she is so patient and guides you through each step. Picking photos is so hard but she is right there to lend her ear and advice. I (we) thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being so wonderful to us and thank you for making your job your PASSION
