Baby Shower for Thomas

Caela + Brian.  I would have never thought that first interview where I first met Caela would have taken us this far and that we would have become sister-friends.  They are expecting their first baby come June 8 and just had their baby shower last weekend.  And because this is their first baby and because Caela is a mega planner and someone who appreciates all things beautiful (and black and white...), the Baby Shower would obviously be Pinterest-worthy.  A few photos of the details.

Hastie 34 | A Collect + Cultivate Party

Nothing kicks off the anticipation and excitement of the coming summer like a party at The Farm.  We had a party to celebrate Mike's Birthday, organized and hosted by his fabulous earth-mother wife, Emily of Collect + Cultivate.  There isn't really much to say other than IT WAS PERFECT.  The weather was gorgeous, we had an abundance of delicious homemade food and drinks, a skateboarding ramp, multiple forms of entertainment for the kids (trampoline, playhouse, OPEN SPACE TO RUN AROUND), the firepit, and late night churros... 

A few faves from our fantastic evening

Happy Birthday Mike!

Thank you to Em for hosting yet another incredible party!

 

Cinnabar Brunch No. 4

Spring has arrived and with it the promise of brighter mornings to help get you out of bed!  I was up early Sunday morning to catch the 10am Brunch Session with Cinnabar and take some shots of fellow foodies and the always lovely and thoughtful menu.  As usual, hot coffee and refreshing cocktails were ready and waiting along with the pastry du jour, Apple-Ginger turnovers.

The food was as rich and warm as it was beautiful.  After a long week of Art Club, it was the perfect little cozy getaway for me!  Thanks to the awesome Chefs for their hard work putting all of this together for everyone!

Cinnabar Session No. 3

Cinnabar Sunday Brunch Sessions are back!  I had my heart set on the duck, but after having too much fun with a crazy group of Mamas down in Beach Grove the night before, my belly was aching' for some bacon, well some red meat anyway!  I enjoyed the 10AM slot with Emily + Khara, EM brought her brother and Khara invited a co-worker/friend.  I did not realize I was in for a treat, seeing one of my buddies show up with a pretty lady and a whole bunch of other Vancouver buddies at the Noon slot that I would be shooting.  As usual, it was a delicious feast!
