Randi&Brad -Married! {Calgary wedding photographer}

New years Eve. A fresh start. A new outlook. celebration. excitement. love…… Randi and Brad married on one of the most exciting days of the year. The moment I met them, I knew we were a great fit. Randi is full of life and Brad has this amazing energy and passion, in fact, Brad had as much vision for the photography as Randi did. We created some beautiful images for their engagement session and finally, December 31, their wedding day, arrived. It was one of those crisp winter days, not terribly cold but also not warm- which the bridal party will attest to! Still though, I always say that we generally can’t ask for anything better than a winter day that isn’t -40 and blizzarding. I was able to capture both the girls and the boys getting ready which was great, especially because Brad also had some nifty gear to show off. The first glance was done on a roof top overlooking the city and Randi’s tears of joy were an indication of just how much Brad means to her. We were lucky enough to be able to use a family member’s AMAZING home for some of the creatives and I think the boys definitely channeled their inner ‘mad men’ and the ladies their true divas within. The whole crew were such troopers and their outfits looked amazing against the pristine backdrop of freshly fallen snow. Their ceremony and reception took place at the Calgary Zoo and I was so happy to be able to steal the newlyweds after the ceremony to get some shots under the christmas lights as Brad proposed in the ‘tunnel of love’ one year earlier. The night was topped off some great dancing and what seemed like hundreds of bags of popcorn and a customized hockey puck for each guest.

Janny & Jake -Engaged! {Calgary engagement and wedding photographer}

I have to say I was SO excited to photograph Janny and Jake, we met a few months back and I loved their energy and quite adoration of each other. Their wedding is fast approaching and based on how well their engagement session went, I know their day will be incredible! Full of so much love and emotion. Can’t wait!

Welcome Baby A! {Calgary newborn photographer}

I have had the pleasure of knowing Baby A’s mama Tanya through her incredible talent and passion for cakes. I heard about her through the grapevine about how incredible of an artist she was in addition to how fabulous tasting the cakes were– both VERY important! I ended up using Tanya for my own wedding cake and my family is hooked as well. In fact, I’ve commissioned her to make my 30th Birthday cake coming up in the next couple weeks and I cannot wait to see what she comes up with. Tanya and her hubby have the most beautiful family and feel so blessed to have captured the special moments between them and the newest addition, Baby A. Be sure to check out Tanya’s AMAZING creations here —– Frosted Memories

Christmas Families {Calgary family photographer}

In this wee blog post we welcome Baby B and celebrate another family’s LOVE for Christmas! I haven’t done much shooting with Christmas trees but I have to say I really enjoyed it. It is such a neat way to honor the fact that B is a Christmas baby and all the joy and surprises that come along with it. I have known the Stellar family for quite a few years-  photographing their first daughter as a newborn, then their wedding and now as a complete beautiful perfect family enjoying their favourite time of year. I adore seeing my wedding clients’ families grow and documenting it through my lens. There is truly nothing more cherished than photographs: sure I may be biased (ha!) but life is fleeting and investing in photography of my own family  is something I myself have decided to make a priority. I think you should too!

Ashley & Justin -Married! {Calgary Golf and country club, Calgary wedding photographer}

Nothing completes a beautiful winter wedding like a magical sunset and weather that is fresh and crisp but not bitterly cold. Ashley and Justin’s wedding day was certainly all of the above. Their sunset ceremony was held at the Calgary Golf and Country Club right in front of the gorgeous and massive fireplace. Justin is a born and bred Quebecois, as were his groomsmen- I truly enjoyed the accents and the banter but I have to say, I do wish I spoke the language… Well, then again- maybe not (as I was told several times by the groomsmen) ha! Maple syrup was a welcome sight on the tables, brought all the way from Quebec. The dining room was a festive sight of the perfect amount of glitter, lights and beautiful floral arrangements. I was particularly taken with Ashley’s dress, which was beautiful from the front and jaw-dropping AMAZING in the back. I absolutely loved how warm and friendly everyone was and it was certainly a room filled with love. Hurricane Hollywood created and masterminded one of the best dances I’ve ever witnessed and it complimented the photo booth so well. To top it off, a late lunch of chocolate fondue and poutine was served. It really was the perfect winter wedding. Until next time, enjoy! x

He sang the most beautiful impromptu rendition of “That’s amore”. It was like something out of a movie.
