Sneak Peak - Hannah & Bruce

Just a quick sneak peak of a wedding that I shot a couple of weeks ago. Yes I know I am behind but I'm pretty excited about all of these images that I just couldn't wait to share them with you.

Jon & Jana Lamb

Jon & Jana are finally married and it couldn't have been a better day for it. The weather was perfect and the acreage didn't even look like it had a massive hail storm which wiped out ALL of the flowers the week before. As everyone scrambled to recover what they could for this very special event, it turned out to be a perfect day for the very happy couple.

As I post a few of my favorites they are over in Europe enjoying their honeymoon. I can't wait to hear all about your travels!




















Their cake was done by cakeworks, and it was so very cool, and most important very delicious. I have been to a couple of weddings now that have a cakeworks cake and they definitely do the best job. I highly recommend them if you are looking for a wedding cake or even a birthday cake.

Jermaine & Julie

So I have known Jermaine for close to 10 years now and he is married to a very fun and beautiful Julie! I love these two, they are so much fun, so caring and easy going. They truly love life and most importantly they love each other. This shoot was for their one year anniversary and you can see that the honeymoon stage isn't even close to being over.

Catherine

About a month ago a really good friend of mine contacted me and asked if I could do some head shots, and below is what was produced from our afternoon of the blind leading the blind. As this being the first ever head shot shoot that I have done and Catherine never having done anything like this before, we were both laughing like crazy the whole time.
I had an absolutely amazing time! It was so much fun feeling like we were kids pretending to be a model and a high class photographer, well maybe I was just pretending but Catherine definetley brought some blue steel!
I really hope that you do pursue this possible opportunity as these pictures are gorgeous!


This one is my favorite!



I just love her eyes in this one.

Thomson Family

I had the extreme pleasure of spending the afternoon with one of my favorite families! You may recognize some of the people from a previous session that I did of the Metcalf's.
I had an absolute blast seeing everyone again and for some it has been more than 13 years since I had seen them. I'm so glad that Kelly (my second mom growing up) contacted me to get some family pictures done for them.
Here are a few from the afternoon.

This is the whole Thomson family.





These two wonderful people are the reason for this beautiful family!


My dad and Keith who is like a father to him.


And here is the family that I grew up with. I used to always ask 'when are we going to the Metcalf's?' I could hardly wait to go over to their place, and when they moved out of our neighborhood it was about a 45 minute drive I seriously could hardly contain myself in the truck. I have sooo many memories with this family and I love every one of them like a sister/brother!

Paul & Jamie

It had been almost a year since I did their engagement photos and I actually missed them. They are so natural in front of the camera and were so excited for the day. It was an absolutely flawless day thanks to their all their hard work and awesome wedding party!

Both Terilee and I had an amazing time and loved every minute of your special day!


















Canvas Alert!! I would def blow this one up big!








This one is also a Canvas contender.



I have to say a very special Thank You to my AMAZING second shooter and very good friend that was up from California to visit family. She was more than happy to help me out and went over and above her call of duty. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Jon & Jana

Jon and my husband have been friends now for around 10 plus years and when he jumped out of a dishwasher box to propose to the love of his life, it was perfect. Jon and Jana are so cute and very much in love and I can hardly wait to shoot thier wedding in less than 2 weeks.

This one is def my favorite, I loved playing with the lighting.

Bruce & Hannah

Wow I am so behind on blogging, this is totally unacceptable!

I had so much fun with these two and they were so natural in front of the camera. Hannah and Bruce definitely brought their "A" game and totally knocked it out of the park (sorry Bruce I had to). I know they will rock it on their wedding day. I can't wait and it is really coming so quick. Here are a few of my favorites from the day.




Bruce loves baseball, so it was very fitting to take some pictures at a diamond.


So gorgeous! You are going to stop everyone in their tracks on your wedding day.

Maricar & John

So I met with Maricar and John one afternoon downtown for a couples session, and within the first 5 minutes I quickly realized that even though Calgary has over a million people, it is one small city! I went to junior high with John who was actually referred to me from Kari (a great friend and a previous bride), small, small world! I just loved hanging out with these 2 for the afternoon and I just couldn't get enough of Maricar's eyes! Here are some of my favs from the afternoon.

Wade & Stephanie Engagement

I had so much fun with these two, you were such troopers getting into that freezing cold water. And there is no way that you would ever have been able to tell that the water was so cold because they looked like they were actually enjoying playing in the waterfall.

I can hardly wait until the wedding day, they are both gonna look absolutely stunning! Just knowing that they are willing to sacrifice the body for the photo makes me even more excited for their big special day! Here are some of my favorites from the day.
