Sneak Peek

Sneak peek of Aleasha & Tyrell's photo session.



Shaughnessy UofA Graduation

I had such an amazing time photographing this brilliant Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology graduate.
When she told me she wanted unconventional graduation portraits, I was thrilled! (I have never been a fan of the traditional grad photos that lack in personality) She wanted to preserve the memories of campus life during her four years of study at the University of Alberta, and I was honoured to be a part of capturing those memories!

Congratulations Shaughnessy!
I wish you all the best in your future endeavours!

I guess this is what one would call a bio...

Hi! I am Tracey Sawatzky. I enjoy bubble tea, and indie music. Creating art is my passion. I adore anything vintage or eccentric. I am a strong believer in peace, animal rights and saving the environment. I am a public transit user and obsess about recycling. My favorite color is green. I love all flowers and everything outdoors. However I am thankful for several technologies (like cameras and Photoshop!). I find inner peace just thinking about the ocean, I am drawn to all types of rocks and love gazing up at the stars. This is me, and this is my life!

To give you a little bit of history: In 2007, I became interested in photography and ever since then I have hardly put my camera down. (Especially when I bought my Canon Rebel XSi!) Up until the summer of 2009 I have mainly shot nature or still life images until my wonderful friends asked me to photograph their beautiful wedding, where I found my love for photographing people. (Thanks B&L!) Photography is only part of what I like to do. I have always loved creating art with several different types of mediums. I also design and make jewelry under the name Tiny Star Creations.

WEDDING!!!

My first wedding!!!
I have found my love for photographing people!!!

This experience was wonderful! I would like to thank B&L for letting me photograph their special day.

Here are a few photos...
