Animals & Pets

All animals are amazing creatures, but no one should be without a pet. From white squirrels, indigenous to Western North Carolina, to alpacas, bears, dogs, horses, sheep, seals, whales, and reptiles. Our pet of choice? Samoyeds definitely!

Local Area Attractions

Western North Carolina - an extraordinary destination. Blue Ridge Parkway, The Biltmore Estate, NC Arboretum, Chimney Rock State Park, and Dupont State Forest to name a few. The Hunger Games filmed at Dupont.

National Parks

Have a bucket list? Why not take that next vacation in the good ole USA and visit a National Park. Great Smokey Mountains, Grand Canyon, Yosemite, and the Blue Ridge Parkway are favorites for any budding photographer or professional alike.

Macro Magic

Macro photography is an amazing and interesting way to view Life's Canvas. Get closer and you'll see a whole new world right before your eyes. Photographing nature up close is a personal favorite. Take a peek at some of our latest beauties.

Calendar Time Again!

It's time to order your 2013 calendars again! Each year, we create a wall calendar that consists of images taken only during the previous year; namely 2012. We will continue to create these special photo calendars to sell on our website. However, this year Life's Canvas Photography is going to do something a little bit different. In addition to the Annual Calendar, we are also creating additional calendars.

Because our shopping cart is still under construction, please send an email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and let us know how many calendars you want and an address where we can send them. We'll send you all the necessary information needed to purchase a calendar or two.

Currently our wall calendars cost $15.95 plus shipping.

Buy any two calendars for $30.00 plus shipping, and we'll send a FREE 5x7 print just for you!

Macro Magic Calendar

Our first calendar is now available and we have dubbed it our Macro Magic Calendar. This calendar is a compilation of "up close & personal" digital photos we have taken over the years; some of which we think are quite amazing. For those of you who are familiar with our calendar, you'll find a repeat of images used in past calendars. We find these images to be the best closeup shots we've taken to date.................in our humble opinion of course. Worth noting, we have had friends and family suggest we caption our calendars so you know what each image represents.

The slideshow shows all the pictures that will be included in the 2013 Macro Magic Calendar. While some of these images may not be deemed "macro" by some, professionals or otherwise, we think they come pretty darned close.

Annual Calendar

Every year, we create an Annual Calendar of images taken in the past year only. If you've ever had one of our calendars before, then you'll want to buy our Annual Calendar because no image is repeated from one year to the next.

National Parks are on our proverbial bucket list, but this year we branched out slightly. Does Niagara Falls (Canadian Side) count as a National Park? Probably not, but you will NOT believe some of the photos we took while visiting our friends to the north.
