    ByKeri Coles

    In 2010 Gene and I bought a share in a grain co-op that was being hosted by Makaria Farms just outside Duncan. We learned how to plant, grow and harvest grain.

I just love shooting family love; especially when three generations are involved 😉 Little Sophie stole a piece of my heart when I first met her (you can check out our first Lucas family photo here). She is such a little darling! I got a very sweet email from Philippe after I dropped off their cd of images. A bit of it went like this…”Mary and I are…
