Sorry for the long delay in posting – I’ve had a deluge of submissions come in, but due to a death in the family, I haven’t had a chance to get around to uploading them.

I have nearly 40 images to share with you – all from just five individuals, three of whom have already sent in some submissions!!  They’re doing a great job of increasing their chances of winning our awesome prizes!! :D

Because of the number of photos, I will be posting thumbnails of each photo, with camera settings and tutorial used.  Please click on the thumbnail to view image.

Hands On Photography
A Canadian Scrapbooker Feature – by Sue Sykes

  • About Sue

    Sue has been behind a camera for more than 25 years, working professionally as a photographer for the last ten years. While she began the hobby of scrapbooking in 2000, as a complement to her photographer career, it soon grew into a rival passion! Sue loves to enlarge one of her favourite photos and make it the focal point of her page, using her supplies to bring the focus onto her photography. She has, in recent years, turned more to scrapbooking "moments" rather than "events", choosing to leave her children more insight into her point of view of their lives.



    Sue has been married to her best friend, Gary, for over 10 years and has two children, Connor and Aili. She considers herself very fortunate to be so lucky to work not only for herself, but also to be involved with Canadian Scrapbooker - both of which combine her passion for scrapbooking and writing!
