Late Winter Fashion with Christie Ressel

Stylist & Youtuber Christie Ressel

Stylist & Youtuber Christie Ressel

And just like that, it’s the last week of February and I really hope spring is behind the corner!

One of the reasons I love working with Stylist Christie Ressel so much is because her outfits are full of joy and they make even winter better.

We started this photoshoot in a beautiful cafe where we had delicious coffee and captured super cozy photos.

Shooting in our second location was a bit interesting this time! See what Christie wrote about it:

“When you have a photo shoot scheduled, outfits prepped for dry ground, and on the day of, it snows? All you can do is laugh and roll with the punches.

Fun fact, at this location, there is normally a warm, public restroom that I’ve used to change-in for photos. However, in addition to the surprise snowfall, the bathroom was also locked. BUT, I found a small janitors closet (with no lock on it ☠️😳) and changed there instead. .
Was it glamorous? No.

But I did get a good laugh (and tested the speed of my changing).

Things don’t always go as we plan, but we always have a choice to either resist, complain, and make it a “thing”, or laugh, roll with it, and chalk it up to a quirky part of our day. .
We always have a choice.

I would much rather choose a feel good, elevated vibe, wouldn’t you?”

Christie’s last outfit is a bit unusual, because she doesn’t wear a lot of black.

She injected colour into this outfit in a beautiful and subtle way, so it’s still very much her style.

September is here! August and September are actually my two favorite months for outdoor photoshoots. Thanks to cooler temperatures we don’t get tired and sweaty so easily, light is slightly less harsh and our make-up doesn’t run… These are all things that make lifestyle outdoor photoshoots way more productive and successful.

For this photoshoot with Cathy from Pink Avocado Nutrition we did a ton of fun things including a picnic in a nearby park and a trip to a great local grocery store Apple Factory.

Here are some Perfect Picnic tips from Cathy:

  1. Check the weather!

  2. Keep the food as simple as possible, pick up prepared foods and snacks, pre-cut fruits. Crackers, grapes, cheese are great snacks.

  3. Carefully pack one real knife—a camping knife if you have one—and have it handy in case there’s baguette to be sliced. I wrap mine in tea towels, handy and a little safer.

For all picnic tips, visit Cathy’s blog.

Spring with Pink Avocado Nutrition

We had so much fun shooting with Cathy from Pink Avocado Nutrition for her new, beautiful website. Cathy is a Nutritionist & Accountability Coach (that’s a combo to make things happen right there!), a Super Momma and such a ray of sunshine.

I always admire women who went through serious struggles and didn’t let those struggles break their spirit and get them stuck in victim mentality. If you didn’t know Cathy’s back story, you’d never think this energetic, creative, nurturing lady went through so much in her life. I’m always so grateful for the opportunity to work and learn from women like Cathy. It inspires me and helps me with my own struggles. We all go through hardships from time to time and growth isn’t easy!

I started my 40s with struggles. I had a child that was in and out of hospitals, a terminally ill father and to top it off a failing marriage! But these struggles lead me to dig deep and find what I had forgotten - belief in myself. I found a coach and realized I needed accountability. I stopped trying to lose weight, I stopped seeking approval from others & I gained the courage to believe in myself again. I focused on the process and let the results speak for themselves
