Klassen Family : Sneak Peek
There’s nothing quite like golden fall days filled with sun leaks and family time. 💫
All of this has me reminiscing over last autumn, which is when I took these magic family photos - a gift from the family to one of the matriarchs. How lovely!

Recently the weather has begun to turn - summer to fall.
I catch myself leaving the windows open, shrugging on a cozy sweater in the evening while brewing tea.
I love the way that this time of year constantly finds me surprised by the magic of beautifully coloured, turning leaves, and stopped in my tracks breathing deep the smell of cozy bonfires on the breeze.

Photo Journal | Thanksgiving || 2018
Thanksgiving this year was spent with my family at our cottage.
Growing up our cottage was completely electricity free. Most of my memories of my time spent there is of me reading - everything from Jane Eyre to comic books. When I was young we would buy Archie comic books right before cottage trips, and we’ve built up a pretty impressive collection.
Since then my parents and aunt & uncle have installed a solar panel that can be used for some basic electrical needs. But we still have to conserve energy - especially on grey weekends like Thanksgiving this year.
Everyone has their “go to” meal when they’re cooking for others. My dad’s is eggs. Look how Sunset Grill perfect the over easy eggs my dad made me were.
My mom recently repainted and decorated most of the cottage, but a lot of the pieces are classic and have been part of cottage life for years.
Something that made this Thanksgiving extra special was the fact that this was Acacia’s first Thanksgiving, and very first family holiday.
It was also Acacia’s first photoshoot. My sister Allysin was the one who took the photos, and filmed a video of the behind the scenes for her YouTube channel.
Suffice to say, Acacia is already well on her way to YouTube fame. ;)

The Wiedemann Family 2017
For Thanksgiving my family went up to our cottage for the weekend. It was so nice to spend time together, and to be up North in nature taking the autumnal scents and scenery.
With two of my sisters being in college, and Allysin and I moved out, it is rare that all of us are in the same place at the same time - so, we took advantage of it. We used the opportunity to take our family portraits for the year.
Here's a sample:
