Laurie Diemand
Laurie was born and raised in Amherstburg, Ontario and moved to Perth County in 1988. Together with her husband Tom and their children Steven and Eve, they turned their historic home in Poole to an exquisite high end B&B called "A Peace of Heaven". She enjoys dabbling in photography, but being a stay-at-home mom and running the B&B has truly been her calling.
Gary is a professional photographer since 1984, creating local scenes and fine art images `out and about' using film based and digital imaging technologies. His fine art imagery explores a wide range of styles, themes and impressions. Other photography includes families, portraits, weddings, commercial and industrial images.
Specializing in the art of the location family portrait, Sean's
studio Lucid Musings is an exclusive wedding
provider and commercial lifestyle photography expert.
Travel and music photography adds a personal
side to this full portfolio.
Sean's Stratford and Perth County images have been
featured on the Stratford Tourism website.
Kelly is a keen amateur photographer who prides
herself on being a firm believer in the law of averages – she
takes 35,000 photos
a week and if one happens to turn out fairly decently...
then it's a good week. Ms. Baird is the Community
Development & Communications
Manager with the Town of St. Marys.
