Allow me to introduce to you my very dear friend, Christa. She has just taken a giant step in launching a website highlighting her passion: photography. Busy wife and mother of two adorable munchkins, Christa has discovered a love and an incredible talent, which has taken her on a journey from snapping family pics to creating works of art:

Pop on over to her website and you’ll see what I mean: http://www.christaleephotography.com/

This year has been a tough one for Christa. The sad passing of both her sweet grandparents spurred her to make a difference by raising funds whilst engaging her photography skills.

She has produced the most gorgeous CALENDAR, capturing her love of nature and keen appreciation of beauty. The proceeds from all sales of calendars will be donated equally between the BC Cancer Society and the BC Heart and Stroke Foundation. Such a precious venture. Details are HERE.

If you would like to support two very worthy causes and receive one of Christa’s stunning calendars in time for Christmas, place your order BEFORE this Sunday, December 1.

I’m so proud of this girl! I love to see people take the time and have the guts to follow their heart, no matter how busy their lives are.

Passion is passion, and when you have it, there’s no escaping the call of the dream.

I hope you’ve enjoyed the photographs in this post- of course they are all featured in her calendar. And because Christmas is only 4 weeks away (yikes) here is a perfect festive scene to finish with. Enjoy!
