Oh the return of the golden light. How sweet it is. And what a treat for a photographer to shoot such a lovely couple in such a lovely setting. I really can’t ask for more. Ashley requested we start at Knox United Church as her grandparents were married there. Unfortunately, there were no photographs as it would have been cool to recreate the posing, but it was still a special location to commemorate her love for them. We moved on to Inglewood just in time for the beautiful golden hour and it certainly didn’t disappoint.

More dogs! More love! More happiness! I am one blessed photographer with so many incredible couples. Charlene and Riley’s dog is named Butters. How cool is that? I do wonder what they shorten the name to though. We have so many nicknames for our dog Fenway I’m not sure if he even knows what his name is. We had a great time shooting just outside downtown Calgary, so much space for Butters to run. It was so captivating watching him bound and leap for his frisbee and so lovely to see how happy he made his “parents”. Charlene and Riley’s wedding is slated for this fall out in Kananaskis Country at the Delta Lodge.

Knowing that Nickie and Paul were both baseball enthusiasts made a baseball themed session a no-brainer. I loved incorporating their gloves in, and how perfect was it that they were opposite handed so both gloves could be seen! I loved the two looks with the gritty urban vibe and of course, as always, love the dog. Their wedding is planned for this fall in Waterton. It’s one of my favourite hiking destinations and I cannot wait to shoot there, it’s been a definite dream of mine!

I adore working with Kari from Knot Planning and love the couples she brings me. I was referred to Deanne and Brad through Kari and it was an incredible match from the very beginning. I loved hearing about Brad’s proposal at Vin Room, and so after a conversation with the manager, we were given permission to shoot there. Their ease and playfulness with each other made my job so easy. I gave practically no direction and just let them be them. I love that. It’s what I strive for most in my photography. I want my couples true personalities, true relationship to shine through.

When Stacey mentioned she might like a downtown engagement session with both a natural and urban feel I was very excited to finally use the Peace Bridge. Despite all the hubbub about it and it’s construction, it is a really eye-catching and unique part of the Calgary skyline now and I was thrilled to be able to use it for their session. I can’t wait for their Valley Ridge Golf Course wedding this summer!
