Wowee! what a windy day! I didn’t realize how windy Calgary is on a regular basis until a friend from the Okanagan moved here and it’s her biggest qualm. We didn’t let a little wind (uh, A LOT of wind actually) stop us though, and we just worked with it. Daena and Nathan’s wedding is coming up in June, in a small town outside of Edmonton. I can’t wait to shoot there as I find that small towns have so much charm, the weathered facades and quaint buildings are a photographer’s dream, especially a photographer from the city! See you in June!

Shirley and Raf brought something special to their engagement session: Shirley’s mom! I’m not sure how it’s possible for so much energy and charisma to emanate from someone so, well, little! Before I put my foot completely in my mouth, I could instantly see where Shirley got her beauty and personality from. 🙂 From the moment we started shooting, there was constant laughter and gorgeous light to capture it all. I think one of my most favourite photographs of all time came right at the end. Shirley and Raf love the Calgary skyline and so we made our way to Scotsman’s Hill. As they sat on the bench admiring the sunset and the buildings, I couldn’t help but wonder how the skyline will change along with this beautiful couple. I have challenged them to a free session, 30 years from now in the exact same spot. 2041 isn’t that far away now is it?!
