My name is Robyn. I've been shooting since I was 10 years old. My first camera was a manual Canon and a 35mm prime lens. I got my first DSLR in February 09 and I haven't put it down since. Literally. If I could sleep with it, I would. And I have a small addiction with Flickr! ;)

I am having so much fun taking photos, especially of my twin boys, who are the pride and joy of my life. You'll see that most of my stream is about them and my photographic escapades as I have recently gone professional with my photography business.

If you would like to use my photos in any way, please ask first ... it's easy enough to find out whether you took something that doesn't belong to you, so don't even bother! My photos are copywritten and belong to me. It is illegal to steal photos from anyone at anytime.

I recently launched my website - take a look and if you like what you see, leave a comment and subscribe to my blog!

Also, I will not hesitate to block anyone who conducts themselves in an appropriate way on here. I check every person on here who writes a comment or faves one of my photos.

Thanks for your interest!

    "I completely admire Robyn's work, her talent and passion to work with kids and people is so natural where others struggle to get a simple smile or a decent pose. I have seen her wonderful work and the time and dedication she puts in every single shot, where sometimes she works in her digital darkroom all night long. I can hear her joy though her work and see her smile through the details of her captures.
    Her delicate lines in post-processing is perfect to combine all the elements necessary to bring accurately the character of the baby, the kids, parents of family that are in front of her lens.
    Robyn, thanks for sharing this talent with us and please keep up the good work. Blessings to you and your family. -Carlos"

    "Robyn and I "met" on flickr soon after we each joined, and it has been a pleasure to watch her work progress. She has taken what began as a passionate hobby for photographing her beautiful twin boys and in a very short period of time developed her own creatively distinct visual voice, turning her hobby into a full-fledged lifestyle photography business. The pace of her development as a photographer is nothing short of amazing, especially considering that she does it all while raising two toddlers! And, even with all she has on her very full plate, she takes the time to make thoughtful and encouraging comments on the work of others.

    Robyn is also genuine and open about herself, and whether she writes about a personal experience with her children, or a moment of self-doubt, or a funny client experience, she allows you into her world and shows her incredible ability to persevere despite bumps in the road. She is an inspiration."

    "I am really surprised that I am the first one to write a testimonial for Robyn! but I'm glad to be the first :) I found Robyns picture on some random flickr searching and realized it looked very similar to a place where I take a lot of pictures, and realized we lived close by. I have been watching her stuff for a few months now and I can honestly say I am more and more impressed with every new photo she posts, they are simply amazing, the work with babies and her portraits and her kids are beautiful. I love her way with textures and colors. Its been great getting to know her!"
