a beautiful west coast seaside home | lifestyle photographer

Last week had me back in Vancouver for two polar opposite events. One was to say goodbye to an old childhood friend who passed away suddenly, the other was to attend a workshop with a photographer and stylist who I’ve admired for years. Tracey Ayton is one of those talented people who is always the photographer in my favorite glossy Canadian interior design magazines. Timing was on my side and it allowed me to spend a fabulous day with her and two other creatives in her beautiful west coast seaside home. As you can see, every detail in her home is thought out to precision. The only regret is that I didn’t meet her insta-famous dog, Frankie!

Spring Break in Argentina was amazing and now feels like it was just a dream. Buenos Aires has been called the “Paris of South America” and there is a reason for that. As you walk through certain areas of this beautiful city you feel as if you are transported to France with it architecture, art museums and outdoor cafes. The country is known for its tango, polo, sizzling asado and flowing Malbec. All of which we participated in! One day we headed out to the country and visited the most gorgeous Polo farm where we took part in watching a polo game, learning about polo and eventually getting on the horses and playing a match. In between all of this we shared a delicious lunch and wine with the professional players. Language was a bit of a barrier but it was so interesting to learn about their profession and lives. If you ever find yourselves in Buenos Aires, I would not hesitate to take part in this magical day out in the country.
