Welcome to the world, Owen!
By Erin on April 19th, 2012
World, meet Owen. Owen, world.
This little muffin surprised his mom and dad by showing up a week early. He is tiny and perfect and SO well behaved. No tears, no crying, a couple of totally unsurprising accidents and we were done! Wonderful session with a wonderful boy!
Congratulations Steve & Gina!!
Fashion Faux Paws 2012
By Erin on April 5th, 2012
I’m late, I know. I’m sorry!! It’s been almost two weeks already since Fashion Faux Paws and I’ve been super busy, but I’m finally making some time to post the photos. Once again, the event was a HUGE success, raising over $10,000 for the Saskatoon SPCA!! Our stupendous and spectacular Fashion Designers this year were Laurie Brown, Reginald Sankey and Melissa Squire.
It’s refreshing to see a new generation of people who care about the many homeless and abandoned animals that the Saskatoon SPCA takes in every day. Who knew that fashion could have such a big heart?!
Note: All of the VIP photos from Faux Paws have been emailed out already. If you haven’t received yours (and if it’s not sitting in your junk folder) please contact Finelite and I’ll make sure you get it!

Furry Kids
By Erin on March 14th, 2012
There is a house in Saskatoon that is home to a very special group of furry kids.
When you arrive, you’re greeted by Sierra, the fluffy blond. She’s so excited to see you that she’s brought you a stuffy to look at!! Not to touch or take from her, mind you. Just to look at.
While patting her, you notice Rumor, the small fluffy old timer shuffling around your feet. She’s deaf and has had her teeth pulled, and can’t decide if she wants to lay on the couch (where she gets too hot) or on her bed (where she’s impossibly far from the action.) She decides that it’s too tough a decision to make and sits on the floor in the middle of the room instead, hoping for some attention.
Then Bravo bounds into the room and inappropriately invades your personal space. He’s like a gangly teenager on stilts as he jumps from couch to floor and back to couch. He’s all energy, this one, and would do almost anything for a cookie. Except sit still while guests are near. Never that!
Once the embarrassment that the teenager has created passes, you notice that you’re seeing double. The old-timer has a small fluffy partner named Echo. She is the “gold star” child: She behaves. She sits. She’s quiet. She is so good in fact, that she gets to go to work with mom! The only time that her “gold star” status is questioned, is when a mysterious but lethal smell permeates the room… and clears the people from it!
If you’re lucky enough to be invited to this house, do yourself a favor and go prepared. Don’t wear a skirt. Take cookies (and wine) and a sense of humor!
The Zakresky Family
By Erin on March 2nd, 2012
Finelite was on the move again in February, this time heading to Calgary. Jared & I attended a friend’s 40th birthday party party (but we’re not saying who, are we Dave?) and I managed to fit in a couple of family sessions while there. Who expected family photos on the front step in February?? The kids horsed around outside while Kyla put the finishing touches on her hair inside, the dogs performed for treats and Dave just avoided me for as long as possible. Once it was “go time,” it all came together very quickly. Everyone smiled and aside from a bit of lipstick on some teeth (still not naming names, Dave) it was perfect!
Happy Birthday and Happy Updated Family Photo!! Thanks for having us!
