Meg and I went out to happy hour. Had some ahi pizza, had a few drinks. Had a few more drinks. Maybe even some more. Then back home for maybe even another, haha. About this point Meg’s sister, Steph, Facetimed. I honestly don’t clearly remember how the conversation went. Steph is going to France next […]

I spent the last 2 weeks in Vancouver. I could go on and on about the 2 weeks there, but that’s not what this post is for. A good portion of my closest friends are photographers. So it’s inevitable at some point I’m going to be in front of the camera rather than behind it. For […]

After an awesome summer that constantly had me on the go photographing the best clients in the world I’m headed back to Canada!! I’m so excited to spend a couple weeks back in my favorite city, Vancouver. It’s been a while VanCity, I miss you! And I get to experience my very first Canadian Thanksgiving!!!! […]

In May I took a little vacation to Vancouver, BC to enjoy some downtime before my summer season went wild. At one point I laid on a suspension bridge 160 feet above the canyon floor just laughing and breathing in the mountain air. And in that moment it hit me….. life doesn’t wait. It doesn’t. […]

Just before summer I hosted a small workshop. During the workshop we discussed the power of having a blog. But, if you were going to blog you needed to do it consistently. Then I shared my goal for the year to blog 3x a week. I shared it with them thinking if I told a […]

There have been moments that I’ve thought, what were you thinking?!  You’re crazy. But honestly it’s getting so crazy that I’m so excited. SO EXCITED. The next few weeks are insane. And in natural Jackie fashion I started packing an hour ago to leave 10 minutes from now. PS I’m packed. I killed it. I’m […]

  I make 2 playlists a year. The rest of the time I just listen to my most recent purchases. Over and over and over and over. I can listen to the same song over and over for hours. Cause I pick good music! 😉 At Christmas I make a playlist. Christmas deserves a playlist! […]

It’s here!! Wedding season has arrived! It’s about to be ca-ray-ha-zayyyyyyy this year with back to back wedding weekends for months. And the marathon starts tomorrow. I’m so pumped. To prepare myself for the amazingness to come I’ve spent the last couple weeks kinda laying low. Taking a little vacation to North Vancouver. Spending time […]

I was skimming through my instagram the other night and man, life is pretty great. That isn’t to say there isn’t heartbreak or that it’s easy. Shit, it isn’t easy at all. But taking in every moment to the fullest, especially the unexpected ones, makes this life so worth it. The last few months are […]

Last week I was in Vancouver and was kinda laying low. Taking a some time from work a bit to re-energize before the warmer season really kicks off. I’ve realized in the past few months that I’ve just been making to-do lists and checking them off. Well that doesn’t sound bad. Other than I’ve been […]
