Stye+crew

Stye Quequish (far right) is cutting another CD and asked us to shoot his promo shots and cover. Naturally we said yes because we're big fans. These are some of the images we got. It was a lot of fun.

Meet our little Tehya

OK so I know it's been a really long time since our blog was updated but I have a great reason why ... I have the pleasure of introducing Tehya, my 7 pound 10 ounce bundle of complete joy. She was born July 15 at 12:01 pm. She's beautiful, calm and alert when she decides to stay awake for more than a few minutes. And naturally my little family is completely devoted to her.

Remember Me

I made a huge decision about two years ago and well that decision altered my life so much so that sometimes I wonder why I hadn't done it sooner ... I think I didn't because I just didn't think I could or should. My close friends+family know what that decision was+its not important to blast it out all over the place here. Because my main point here is to just kind of trumpet that its OK to make tough decisions even if they scare the shit out of you. Its really important to find yourself if you've gotten a bit lost along the way. We all veer off our paths once in awhile but once you get back onto it well we just appreciate ourselves all the more. And its in those times that you really discover who your real supports are and that can make you feel really rich+honoured.

Remember Me celebrates the lives of some really incredible women. Women who have faced shit and come out all the more stronger+wiser. I love people that traverse events+situations the best way they can and keep moving forward despite all the bad that life has to throw at them. People like that I truly admire+they inspire me to keep my chin up and my heart strong.

Making tough decisions and making the right ones for you can only lead to good and sometimes wonderful discoveries. That taught me that staying true to that inner most part of you can only lead to better things.

And as my grandmother taught me, women are the leaders, the clan mothers, the carriers of wisdom, the life givers to families and communities. We are loving+strong. We are warriors when we have to be and we give and help give birth to nations. We deserve to be honoured for all of that and so much more.

So to all the women that took part in the Remember Me project, I honour all of you. You are all beautiful, inspiring women that we should all take lessons from. Meegwetch. And to all the women that I know+love, you all deserve the best that life has to offer you, do not settle for ordinary because you're all pretty damn fine!

Stay true women

Hospital Project

I know it's been awhile since we updated our site. We have been super busy. Our most recent project that we're halfway through is for the Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre. We were hired to help build an image library of Indigenous Peoples. Given the scope of the project I enlisted my good friend Brent Wesley to help us out. What makes this particular project unique is that we're both taking part in the project as subjects too ... that's us by the way just below.

Remember Me

Remember Me is a project that honours Aboriginal women who have been lost through violence. Below are women who represent the strength and beauty of those that are thriving and showing us that Aboriginal women are to be honoured. This is a wonderful, inspiring project and we're humbled to be a part of it. To view all the portraits because there are so many, too many to post here, please friend me on Facebook - Adrienne Fox - and you can see all the images there. Meegwetch to all the women who are taking part in this important photography project. Their images will be used in a calendar and will also be displayed at the Aboriginal Pavillion during National Aboriginal Day in Thunder Bay.

Fox+Hardy Wedding

We shot our first golf course wedding yesterday. My uncle Charles+his beautiful bride Meladina are avid golf enthusiasts so it was completely fitting for them to exchange vows at their favourite club. After a wonderful traditional ceremony, guests+family enjoyed 18 holes at the Whitewater Golf Club just west of Thunder Bay. The rain+chill didn't dampen spirits at all. And then guests+family were treated to a gourmet meal and a surprise choreographed dance performed by the bridal party. It was definitely the most fun we've had in awhile, so congratulations to this awesome couple.
