Monica & Trevor's E-Shoot

Finally....finally the rain has let up!!! I am so pumped for the nice days ahead.

Monica and Trevor met me on Sunday for their engagement shoot. We were originally scheduled for the day before, but it was like hurricane weather here!! I hadn't met Monica and Trevor before their e-shoot, so I had no idea who I was going to meet and I was hoping that they would be comfortable with me. It was fantastic! Trevor said that Monica is a "professional laugher". LOL. It was so easy to make Monica laugh...I love it! Here are a few of my favorites from their session:

























It's been the trend among photographers to overlay textures....I thought I'd give it a try. It's fun to play around.






Looking forward to your wedding in Waterton in July.

Sara & Doug's E-Shoot

I guess it's inevitable that when shooting on a Friday on Stephen Ave after 7pm, strange things will happen. After a couple of rechedulings due to rain, we finally found an evening that was dry-ish :) Sara and Doug and I started out at The Bay arches for their engagement shoot. Right as we started out, we were approached by a "friendly" drunk fellow. He really wanted to be in the photos too I guess, so I took one shot of him, but then I couldn't get rid of him. NOTE TO SELF: "Friendly drunk fellows don't listen to posing instructions well." After kindly telling the guy that it was time for shots of just Sara & Doug, and having no success at him listening, we took off down the street. We found some super cool spots and actually I'm kind of glad that we didn't stick around The Bay too long. Sara and Doug were great at working the romance....not only in the secluded locations that we found, but also in front of the crowds on Stephen Ave! It was cool to see the crowds fade away as they stared into each others eyes. Here are a few of my favorites shown in the layout of the cover page for their proof book:



And here are a few more....because Shelley asked :)



















Can't wait for your wedding. Just a few weeks to go!

Carrie-Ann & Cory's E-Shoot

Carrie-Ann & Cory's wedding is just a couple weeks away- on the 1st day of the summer and the longest day of the year. They are celebrating summer with some awesome bright colors for their wedding which will be so fun to photograph.
After one rescheduling due to rain, they met me on Wednesday evening for their engagement shoot. The rain had finally let up, the light was awesome, and I was excited to shoot. Here are a few of my favorites:












Looking forward to your day!!

Brittany & Travis's Wedding

It was a great day for Brittany and Travis's wedding on Friday. It was one of those "unstable" weather days which makes for great clouds and a whole mix of light...clouds, sun, clouds, sun, etc. We got sprinkled on just a tiny bit, and then it didn't rain again until we were in the car driving away!! Perfect timing!
Brittany and Travis and their wedding party were sooo much fun! We laughed A LOT and it was so fun to watch the connection between the two of them. Here are a few of my favorites from their day:




This is my assistant Vanessa's shot.....I just love it! Great work Vanessa.


Brittany's parents.....hilarious!
Check out those hot eyes!!

These two were sooooo good at the romance!


I was pumped when we got to the park because all of the blossoms on the trees were so beautiful!





The hot Honda Civic;)

Congrats you two!! All the best in your new life together.
