HELLO DARLIN.

NICE TO SEE YA.



If you sang this line, we will get along juuuuuust fine. Thanks so much for taking the time to visit! Allow me to introduce myself, and attempt to summarize what it is that I’m doing here in the Blogosphere. (Key word is attempt. Those of you who know me know that I tend to write short novels for e-mails and my voice mails more closely resemble Shakespearian soliloquies than “call me backs.”) Runs in the family. Alas, that is I. Who am I you ask? Kathy… a not so typical Photographer. Greeting card business enthusiast. Multi-passionate entrepreneur. Idea girl. Dreamer. Lover of life. Happy. Most days my brain is racing so fast with ideas and things I want to do, that I feel I’m too passionate for my own good. Who am I not? Perfectly organized. A fantastic housekeeper or gardener. My shoe collection would make Carrie Bradshaw cringe, and I get more excited about a good vintage score at Frenchy’s than I ever would about a Prada purse. Don't get me wrong, I can appreciate a fine set of heels like the next girl, but I just don't believe we have to spend the family fortune to look put together. I’m a pretty simple gal who believes there is a time and a place for everything. Including but not limited to: gummy bears, boxed wine, Zoodles, Mr. Noodles and occasionally (okay... very occasionally) Beefaroni. There, I said it, and frankly it feels quite good to get it off my chest. So it's no secret that I am fairly passionate, and put a lot of heart and soul into the things that inspire me. That means in business and in life because I feel like the two are really intertwined anyway - "How you do anything is how you do everything!" I believe that Confucius was right when he said "Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it". I have realized over time that I can't help but see beauty. It is a problem at times. (Forget texting and driving, one shouldn't be permitted to "see beauty", or potential photo session locations for that matter, while driving.) I digress. When beauty jumps out of the world at you, it is easy to become passionate about photography - for me, it is a way to relay to others the beauty that I see in my minds eye. Life is short, this we all know. We are meant to enjoy it, appreciating and celebrating those who are important to us, in this lifetime. This blog is an immediate outlet for me to express and humour myself (and those who stumble by) attach sneak peeks of the happenings here at Legacy Junction Studios, offer fun contests and specials, and chronicle what’s going on in my crazy world. Feel free to sniff around - just promise not to laugh at my wordiness, okay? I truly can't resist! If you know me, you KNOW that is true! (To thine own self be true, no?) Thanks so much for stopping by. I’m so humbled and flattered that you’ve visited and would love to know! You’re welcome and encouraged to leave comments, and say hello!

MY BEAUTIFUL SISTER + HER HUBBY


Aww, my adorable sister and her wonderful guy, Dave.  If ever there were photo session troopers, here they are!  Up at 5:00 am, waited for the drizzle to subside, downed a rather large coffee and cruised around - all over downtown Halifax to be exact.  I had so much fun, what great sports they were.  Dave did much better than he anticipated... what a supermodel, eh? And my sista Louise, well, the camera loves her - nuff said!  Don't you just want to pick her up and put her in your pocket? When we were little, Louise and I would frequent a nearby church parking lot after snow storms, because after the plows came, the drifts were top notch.  We'd slide for hours... but my personal favourite was our little game "Super Toffee".  Yah, you got it.  In the flesh... moi.  The super hero.  Now here's where it gets really safe!  She would hang upside down from a tree branch, I would start at the top of the hill.  In impressive unison, we would chant: "1... 2... 3 SUPER TOFFFEEEEEEEEE!!!!" That was my cue!  I began my descent.  She let go.  And there you have it, hours of entertainment striving for the perfectly timed catch.  For some reason unbeknownst to me, she is still alive.  They don't call her Lucky Lou for nothin'.  The safety factor of this game as you can well imagine, is right up there with jumping busses in the junk yard. Better not get myself into trouble here -- you know too much already -- and our mother very well may read this!  I do love these two.  I have been blessed with an amazing family and I couldn't be more grateful.

                                                                        I'm on a BOAT.
