New tattoos!

Got a few little guys in the past while I wanted to share with you guys!

Just been filing in some of the bigger wholes in my sleeve before we go in with the stars and dot filler. We're almost there! Can't wait to be done this arm lol. 

I started my back outline about a month ago now we probly have about an hour left of smaller details before I get a picture on here for you guys. Here is the final drawing. You'll notice a few last minute changes added to this one  but I figured you guys would like to see for the most part what my back looks like now. We took out the clip part from her hair rose, dropped her shoulders a bit and left out the clothing and necklaces.

I am completely in love with it! Done by Rob Chambers from The Ink Spot in Ottawa!

Life Update

Hai lovers! I know it's been a long while I have just been so all over the place lately I haven't had the time to sit down and do this!

Heres a lil update on what I have done since I got back aside from work. Maddie came to visit last week!!! It was rad! We relaxed and spent some time in the nasty pool at her motel lol. Went to I-Hop and spent a day at the beach! I miss her guts already :(

Here's us at the beach: (casper and her black friend)

I Got Bangs

I have been so so bored with my hair lately and STRUGGLING not to color it some crazy color or go dark cause it took SOOOOO long to get it this way. So today instead of being insane and coloring it then regretting it in a month I gave myself bangs ! I'm kinda stoked on them, the look way better then I had imagined!

Alsoooo I had a few of ou guys asking to see a better picture of my new tattoo so here it is:























Erin Chance from NZ did it for me and I LOVE IT! Lurk out more of her work here:

Needless to say I get excited to see the mail man every morning! boots really are my guilty pleasure i have like 20 at least...It's probly not healthy..

On another note, here are some pics of me from last week:






























I'm off to SF next week to see the boyfriend and work a bit. Should be a rad little two week adventure! I promise loads of pictures and journal updates while I'm gone. Hope you guys had a great easter and that the week is treating you well

Shoot with Marc Boucher

So back in November I shot with a great Quebec based photographer you can find him here.

We shot on a coooooooooolld day outside and I was in a corset lol and not much more for a lot of the time so as you imagine I hated my life. But we got some really great images from that day.

We shot at an abandoned rock quarry in Gatineau just outside of Ottawa. The stone that had been there turned the water in the tiny reserves into this amazing aqua blue colour and all the mud to white. it pretty much looked like an amazing desert oasis!

For the most part a lot of them have not been on the internet so I figured I would share them here with you guys!






























































After the shoot me and a Mark went and got McDonalds like the fat kids we are and I went home and tried to warm up for HOURSSSS

Here is me hating my life cause it felt like my toes had frost bite!!



















I am sitting on my couch right now watching apollo 13 and eating chocolate turtles thanks to magical clearance sales at walmart!lol

Hope you're all having a great weekend!
