Fall Minis Recap | Tsawwassen Photographer
A recap of my remaining, gorgeous fall family mini sessions!
It was a lovely season for fall minis, especially since I found a new little location within Diefenbaker Park that I absolutely adored – beautiful fall colours, a little footbridge, a low tree branch to pose with and a fun tree to climb. It gave us lots of options for great photos, despite some of the rainy weather we encountered. I did need to reschedule a few sessions due to rain, but one of…

‘Sable Island Father and Son’ This is @sandysharkeyphotography, and for day 3 of my #WHPC takeover, we continue to celebrate Canada’s wild horses! Nova Scotia’s remote Sable Island in the Atlantic Ocean is home to wild horses that have survived here since the 1700’s. Sable Island was once known as the ‘Graveyard of the Atlantic’, with it’s remote location causing over 300 shipwrecks. Horses were brought to the island around 1760 for the purposes of building a lifesaving station for shipwreck survivors. Eventually the horses were abandoned ~ and they not only survived, they flourished on a steady diet of marram grass and fresh water from Sable Island’s several ponds. In the late 1950’s, a handful of biologists put pressure on the Canadian government to have the wild horses removed, because they felt that the island’s vegetation needed to be protected. A plan was put into place to remove the wild horses of Sable Island and sell them for dog food. But what followed next is one of my favourite wild horse stories of all time: Canadian children saved the wild horses. From coast to coast, children of all ages wrote letters and created drawings of the ‘ponies’ ~ often using crayons~ and their teachers and parents mailed them off to Canadian Prime Minister John Diefenbaker. Overwhelmed by the pleas from thousands of children, the prime minister declared 100 percent protection for the wild horses of Sable Island. The year was 1960. The horses have been protected ever since, and to think it all started with children, some crayons, and a unified and deep rooted love to keep these magnificent wild horses from harm. Pictured here is a wild stallion with his young son enjoying a nice chin scratch against a piece of driftwood. (photographed with long lens). In September, I made my 8th visit to Sable Island and I will be leading small group adventures in 2020. If you would like to venture to this magical land of wild horses, please email me [email protected] and follow @sableislandwildhorses and @sandysharkeyphotography (at Sable Island National Park Reserve) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5sZjIfne13/?igshid=r658uw34h45a

His honour, W. Thomas (Tom) Molloy, O.C., S.O.M., Q.C., LL.B, LL.D. Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan and Paul Hanley, author Man of the Trees. Richard St. Barbe Baker, the First Global Conservationist. By Paul Hanley Foreword by HRH The Prince of Wales Introduction by Jane Goodall,
His honour, W. Thomas (Tom) Molloy, O.C., S.O.M., Q.C., LL.B, LL.D. Lieutenant Governor of Saskatchewan hosted at Top of the Inn Ballroom, Sheraton Cavalier Hotel the Saskatoon Book Launch November 20 of Paul Hanley’s Biographical book, Man of the Trees. Richard St. Barbe Baker, the First Global Conservationist. By Paul Hanley Foreword by HRH The Prince of Wales Introduction by Jane Goodall.
His honour was the 12th Chancellor of the University of Saskatchewan in 2006 – 2007 and is now Chancellor Emeritus, as well he was on the board of the Meewasin Valley Foundation where he first heard of Richard St. Barbe Baker.
“I am very pleased to join with the University of Regina Press in launching this exciting new book about an extraordinary man.  I want to thank Paul Hanley for writing about Richard St. Barbe Baker…Although he was a  pioneering environmentalist who’s helped to save billions of trees, not many people have heard of him before.  This book is a welcome tribute to an internationally important figure who has very strong ties to our province…As you know Prince Charles has been a life long proponent of conservation and was such a big fan of St Barbe, he planted an avenue of Lime Trees at High Grove in his memory.” His honour, W. Thomas (Tom) Molloy
“Baker inspired many outstanding figures in the forest conservation and reforestation movement, including Felix Finkbeiner (Founder, Plant-for-the-Planet), Scott Poynton (Founder,The Forest Trust), Sunderlal Bahuguna (Founder, Chipko), Tony Rinaudo (Founder, Farmer Managed Natural Regeneration), Vance Martin (President, WILD Foundation), and Hugh Locke (President, Smallholder Farmers Alliance). Through the ripple effect of his indefatigable efforts to promote conservation and reforestation, billions of trees have been planted. He has been recognized as one of the outstanding figures of the conservation movement by environmental leaders such as Prince Charles, Jane Goodall, Wanjira Maathai (Green Belt Movement), Philippe Cousteau (EarthEcho International), Richard Leaky (International Centre for Research in Agroforestry), Sir Ghillian Prance (International Tree Foundation), Elizabeth Dowdeswell (Lieutenant Governor of Ontario, UN Under Secretary General, UNEP), and Peter Wohlleben (forester, author The Hidden Life of Trees). In 1969, The World Wildlife Fund appointed Baker its first Member of Honour.” Office of His honour, W. Thomas (Tom) Molloy
Just days before his death Richard St. Barbe Baker planted his last tree on the grounds of the University of Saskatchewan near the gravesite of his friend, The Right Honourable John George Diefenbaker PC CH QC who was the 13th Prime Minister of Canada.  At the time Richard St. Barbe Baker was working on his thirty-first book. This last tree can be seen from the window of the Top of the Inn at the Sheraton Cavalier when you look towards the University of Saskatchewan.  A memorial marker dedicated by Meewasin Valley Authority and the Saskatoon Baha’i community honours Baker’s last tree planting which took place on World Environment Day June 5, 1982 and the interpretive sign pays tribute to the legacy of tree planting initiated internationally by Richard St. Barbe Baker. Saskatoon City Council in 1979 celebrated the achievement and distinction of Baker naming the afforestation area preserved in perpetuity in Saskatoon [south of the CNR station] in his honour ~ the Richard St. Barbe Baker Afforestation Area.  Richard St. Barbe Baker’s papers, manuscripts, personal correspondence, forestry and conservation activities, photographs and fonds are preserved at the University of Saskatchewan Archives and Special Collections room. Baker Road in the Rural Municipality of Corman Park No. 344 is located near the two homestead lands of Richard St. Barbe Baker and his brother James Scott St. Barbe Baker.  St. Barbe Baker died on 9 June 1982 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan where he is buried at Woodlawn Cemetery.*

“On asked if he would become a patron of the United Nations Year of the Tree, he replied, “I will accept only on condition that it becomes the first year of a Decade of the Tree. You’ve got to have ten years of urgent tree planning to become effective. Our felling has been ruthless over the past 50 years – as we have felled, so we must plant.” ~Richard St. Barbe Baker

Kimiko's Fall Session | Tsawwassen Photographer
Fun was the name of the game at this fall family session, and everyone was totally ready to play!
At the beginning of 2023, I announced that I wouldn’t be holding my traditional indoor studio Holiday Mini sessions this year. To be truthful, this style of photography (posed, studio sessions), isn’t really my specialty, and I never feel truly comfortable doing those sessions, constantly worrying about the set and keeping my house tidy, and making sure my cats aren’t wrecking everything. But I…

Sarah's Extended Family Session | Tsawwassen Photographer
Is it time for you to get your whole family together for photos? It was for this crew!
Even though it was the end of August and fall was still three weeks away, the leaves on the trees had already start to change for this extended family session at Diefenbaker Park, giving this shoot a smidge of an autumnal vibe. I do love the golden sunset sessions of the summer, but when the air temperature shifts and the fall vibes creep in, I have to confess, I can’t wait to reach for my cozy…

I had just over a dozen moms treat themselves to a session with their families this year and that truly warms my heart, especially when many of these mothers…
