• I have many journals that sit on the shelf at home. They chronicle many aspects of my life. I love to look through them, enjoying the things I have written or the pictures there in. It is my hope that as you look through these pages, that you too will enjoy the things placed so lovingly here.
    It has been a journey that has seen me through many joys and a few heartaches. From the start of Crimson Chickadee and my growth as a person and as a photographer. From the realization that how many fans I have on my facebook page does not merit my worth, to the swelling in my heart as I hit publish to a post that I know will mean so much to the intended recipient.
    I hope you join me often, with a good cup of coffee, and enjoy these pages as much as I do creating them.

Finding myself…

I know that I am not going to be the only photographer in Alberta writing this today. Change is coming and I am excited to be apart of  it! I have spent the most wonderful time in Edmonton getting to know Jen and Steve Bebb. Jen and Steve are photographers who are outstanding in their field. Their willingness to share their wealth of knowledge is revolutionary. I  desperately  wanted to go to the Bebbinar two years ago. Unfortunately the timing was not right for me. Since then I have grown with who I am as a photographer and as a person.

There are ups and downs that we all go through that make us who we are and to be honest I thought I knew who I was as a person but I really felt I struggled with who I am as a photographer. I had heard wonderful things about  Jen and Steve  and their ability to help you find any answers you are looking for within yourself.  That is an understatement! I drove home from the city last night my head a whirlwind of thoughts. I am so glad I was not able to go the first time I tried. I was in no way ready…but I was this week. I now know more about myself and the direction I want to go as a photographer. I look forward to working on the goals Jen encouraged us to set for ourselves. I have been hard at work this morning and I am ready to cross the first one off my list…and very excited about doing it!

I want to thank Jen and Steve for taking time away from their family to share with us. You have revolutionized my world.  You are Bebbmasters…and I am thrilled to say I am a Bebbling. I hope that one day I can shine a little light into the world in the way you do…as a person, a parent and a photographer.

It was such a pleasure to meet you Nicole. I’m glad we were able to be “bebblings” together.
