The most asked question I get is what is your favourite go-to white. So today, let’s chat white paint.   If you’ve been following along my reno journey, you would’ve seen how many tester strips and boards I’ve painted in a matter of a week. Just so everyone knows, I am just a tad crazy […]

We have been searching for well over a year for the perfect (forever) family home. Mike and I bought our first apartment together when we were 25 and then a townhouse when we were 30, right before I found out I was pregnant with Aliyana. We’d like to think the stars aligned for us because […]

Our last trip of the summer was a great one! You’ve probably heard this many times but COVID allowed us to explore our own backyard and it led us to The Cottages on Osoyoos Lake. It was our first time there and it left me with some beautiful family vacation memories and a calendar reminder […]

After five months of back and forth with late-night emails. Six years of connecting with you guys on social media, the new and rebrand of Raesd with Grace by Amy Teixeira is finally here. I’ve never felt more purpose, passion and love for what I do. I think transitioning into motherhood and photography over the […]

These photo challenges are meant to help you preserve a memory. I am always one for tangible memories so I print a lot of photos so I can display around the home or just to have in a box. I strongly suggest to print out at least one photo a month. At the end of […]
