Introducing Sophia & Mandeep | Engagement Photographers in Calgary

October 12th, 2011

I would like to introduce Sophia & Mandeep.  They actually already got married this past weekend!  We did a last minute session just days before the big day.  Sophia & Mandeep wanted an engagement session in downtown Calgary.  I was more than happy to photograph them there as I love downtown Calgary.

Introducing Lori & Clay | Ghost Lake | Calgary Engagement Photos

September 9th, 2011

When I met Lori and Clay to plan their e-session, they both mentioned they owned a sail boat.   They asked me what I thought about shooting their session on their boat.  My first reaction was… are you kidding me?  I would love to!!  And so we did.  We headed out to Ghost Lake just [...]

 

When I met Lori and Clay to plan their e-session, they both mentioned they owned a sail boat.   They asked me what I thought about shooting their session on their boat.  My first reaction was… are you kidding me?  I would love to!!  And so we did.  We headed out to Ghost Lake just west of Calgary for their engagement session.  Clay is quite the serious sailor. He was throwing sailing jargons that would be equal to me saying bokeh, TTL and crop factor.  In other words, I had no idea what he was saying but it sounded super cool.  The day was a picture perfect summer day.  The boat presented a unique challenge for me.  There wasn’t a lot of room to maneuver, while holding on and shooting at the same time.  But it was fun none the less and L&C really made me feel welcomed on their kick ass sail boat.

Cindy & Wayne are two of the happiest people I may have ever met.  These 2 could not stop during their engagement session and it sure rubbed off onto me.  We had a really fun time with lots of laughing and joking around.  For their engagement session I wanted to stay close to where both live in NE Calgary.  I hadn’t photographed anyone at Nose Creek Park for a while, so I thought some nice evening light there would be fantastic and it was.  After the session I asked if they would like to go for some bubble tea so we could hang out a little bit longer.  Much to my delight they were more than willing.  Mmmmmmm bubble tea.

I would like to introduce everyone to another one of my awesome 2011 couples.  Terri and Ronny are getting married here in Calgary this August.  After a few reschedules, we were finally able to get out and do this engagement session.  I couldn’t wait to see T&R again and I knew they’d come dress for success.  And they sure did.  We started in the industrial part of Inglewood to get some serious contrast with their outfits and location.  After we were going to finish up the session at the Calgary Stampede, but there were some seriously crazy dark clouds headed or way and we changed plans.  Instead, we walked the path by the Bow River to finish off our super fun session .

Lisa and Jordan are getting married here in Calgary in a few weeks.  We had our engagement session in June and so I thought it was time to introduce them.  We wanted to get down and dirty so we headed to Ogden for our evening photo shoot.  When they pulled up and got out, I knew these 2 were ready.  Dressed for success.  The evening was going pretty until we got caught in a wicked dust storm.  Once we rode out the dust storm, I got some more awesome hot shots of these two love birds.

Meet Kate and Roy.  Kate and Roy were the last couple to book for 2010 for their wedding in October.  I was excited when I first met them because they are obviously a good looking couple and stylish as well.  I was ecstatic when they chose me as their wedding photographer.  I was really looking forward to shooting their e-session in downtown Calgary since they booked.  They definitely didn’t disappoint when they showed up.  They both looked good and ready to work the camera for me.  We had fun just walking around downtown looking for opportunities to make cool photos.  Without further ado, here are Kate and Roy.

Meet Cindy and Kevin.  They were one of the last 2010 couples to book and they didn’t want to wait for their turn in front of my camera!  We first started out shooting at Bowmont Park and we were literally eaten by thousands of mosquitoes.  Yes, those little buggers are back.  We all got tons [...]

 

Meet Cindy and Kevin.  They were one of the last 2010 couples to book and they didn’t want to wait for their turn in front of my camera!  We first started out shooting at Bowmont Park and we were literally eaten by thousands of mosquitoes.  Yes, those little buggers are back.  We all got tons of bites, but some of the shots we got were worth it.  Every image I edited, I had to remove all the mosquitoes buzzing around Cindy and Kevin.  When we could handle it anymore we left and went into Bowness to finish off the session.  The photos from the second location turned out much better.  Easy to understand why!  No mosquitoes!  Next time, I am packing repellent!  C&K are getting married later this in September.

Meet Jen and Jason!  Jen and Jason are a super cool couple and are totally down to earth.  We had some fun at a Flames game earlier this year, so it was nice to finally see them again.

We had an awesome time doing their engagement photos down by the Elbow River near downtown Calgary.  We found some interesting places to stop and shoot some photos.  Afterwards we ventured over to warehouse district to shoot some more and ended up at the Arriva building as the weather started to turn on us.  The security guard there graciously allowed us to shoot inside the building.

Their wedding is at the end of June and from the sounds of it, it’s going to be one heck of a celebration!

Introducing Amber and Aaron!  Aaron found me hanging out on my favorite Flames forum called Calgarypuck.  At first Amber wasn’t sure if a hockey forum was the right place to be looking for a wedding photographer in Calgary.  Good thing for me, Amber liked my work.  A&A both really wanted have a few photos taken on the carousel at Chinook Mall.  We eventually ended our shoot at a Tim Horton’s, the company Amber is a lawyer for.  She figured her fellow co-workers would get a kick out of seeing a few photos of her in front of a Tim Horton’s.

Amber and Aaron will probably have one of the more extravagant weddings this year that I will have the honor of covering.  They are getting married at the Palliser with a Cirque du Soleil themed wedding.  Yes, you can let your imagination run wild with this one.  There will be performers!  Did I ever mention, I love my job?  I am so excited about their wedding and I can’t wait for June 12th!

Christina and Lenny in the Badlands | Calgary Engagement Photography

Christina and Lenny came to me in September about photography for their wedding that was going to be held in Toronto.  Unfortunately for them, I was already booked for their date.  They both are Torontonian transplants who haven’t been in Calgary for very long.  Their first impressions of Calgarians was that we are super friendly.  Too friendly to the point they weren’t sure if people were just faking it not.  After a 1 and a half years here, they now know that we are truly super friendly.  It’s just the way it is here out west.

Because I couldn’t do their wedding photography, Christina came back to me and asked if we could do an engagement session around Calgary.  I was more than happy to do something for them.  They mostly loved of my fashion inspired work, so I told them we could shoot somewhere unique instead of inside Calgary.  At first they wanted to head west towards the mountains, but I suggested we head east to the badlands instead.  Of course they were both up for that.  Christina asked me what they should wear and I said “just look pimp”.   Needless to say, they showed up really pimped out and I couldn’t wait to get started.

I wish you both an awesome wedding in Toronto.  I really wished I could have been a part of it, but I am still glad you wanted to do a session with me, otherwise we never would have met.  You both are an awesome couple and I know your big day is going to be amazing.  Congrats on your upcoming wedding.  I hope you love your photos as much as I loved making them for you!  Don’t be a stranger!
