Here are a few images from Zürich and Basel that I shot when we were in Switzerland for Joëlle & Damian’s wedding. Both are incredible cities and I can’t wait to explore more of Switzerland one day.

Gorgeous photos! Can’t wait to work with you 
In September on our way to Zürich for Joëlle & Damian’s wedding we took a little stop over in Reykjavik. We were only there for 23 hours but we made the most of it and still managed to see miles of gorgeous countryside. We took the red-eye from Toronto to Reykjavik and landed at about 6 am. We hopped in our rental car and away we went to explore The Golden Circle – Þingvellir, Geysir, and Gullfoss. We discovered later that our map had an explicit warning about not using it for navigational purposes. Despite our less than detailed map and few scenic detours, I think we put about 500 Km on our little Yaris!
Gullfoss is a magical waterfall. We were lucky enough to arrive when nobody was there and had some time just us and the waterfall.
After a full day of driving we went to the Blue Lagoon. I highly recommend this! We sat and relaxed and enjoyed a beer while soaking in this incredibly gorgeous hot spring.

Random acts of kindness. I saw this little note on a parked bike outside St. Lawrence Market. I don’t know who the lucky owner of this bike was. I don’t know if the note was left for someone in particular or simply intended to brighten one lucky cyclist’s day. I do know, however, that it brightened mine! It’s the little things in life that add the sprinkles to my cupcake.

Have you heard of http://www.peopleforgood.ca?
Been meaning to check them out and waiting for http://www.altrooist.com to launch.
Random acts of kindness are so good and easy to do
I’m so excited to share these pictures with you! Back in April I had the honour of joining iRetreat, a fantastic Toronto-based tour company, in Costa Rica to photograph their yoga and surf adventure. I had such a great time and met so many wonderful people.
iRetreat has just launched their new website with a whole bunch of exciting trips. If you are thinking of escaping the cold next winter you should definitely join these guys. This is a vacation you can feel good about. Not only do they take care and attention in ensuring the trip will be as eco-friendly as possible, but since you will be eating delicious, healthy food and doing yoga everyday, your body will come back feeling great too!
This retreat was held at Finca Exotica on Carate Beach. I highly recommend this amazing ecolodge. The staff are fantastic, the food is amazing, and the setting is out of this world.
It is so cool for me to see my pictures in action on the iRetreat website. Here are a few of my favourites!
Here I am in front of my tent. It was such an experience sleeping in the jungle with all the noises. It was like one of those jungle sound machines, only it was the real thing!
This was my shower. There was a tree near by that often had 5 or 8 Scarlet Macaws watching overhead.

These little cuties were everywhere!
