The Gillund’s | Calgary Family PhotographyJune 30th, 2011I do not take a lot of family commissions, because I am pretty busy with weddings. But sometimes the right family comes a long.

I do not take a lot of family commissions, because I am pretty busy with weddings. But sometimes the right family comes a long. The Gillunds were that family. Martin contacted me years ago about shooting photos of his family. We never got around to it due to scheduling conflicts, but this time around, everything worked out. Martin has been following my work on Calgarypuck since I first started doing photography. He remembers photos that I made that even I have forgotten about. I came over to meet Martin, Mihaela, Gabby and Travis at their beautiful home in NW Calgary. When I first arrived I immediately greeted by the boys with big smiles on their faces. I felt welcomed right away. I also noticed there was one thing was lacking in the home, family photos. That would have to change. They also had the most amazing backyard I have seen in a long time. I was so jealous, because my backyard is… well, uninspiring. Travis and Gabby are such happy kids! They showed me all their toys, swings and showed me some of the funny things they liked to do. I knew right away, this was the perfect family for me to photograph. So we booked our session the day after and I showed up a few days after that to do their family session.
We hung around the house for the first hour while I photographed everyone in their own environment. Afterwards we headed to nearby Nose Hill Park in NW Calgary for the outdoor part of the session. Everyone did awesome even though we were swarmed with what seemed like a million of the world’s biggest mosquitoes.
Thank you Martin, Mihaela, Gabby and Travis. You guys are one awesome family. I hope you print lots of the photos and put them everywhere in your house. I am really glad to have been able to do this for you guys. It was really nice for me, as a photographer, to do something different from my norm. It gave me the motivation to want to shoot more families like yourselves. I look forward to taking you all to Flames games with me next season. :)

You might remember Jenn from last summer. I photographed Jenn & Khang’s wedding on Lake Chestemere just west of Calgary. Now, her and Khang are having their first baby sometime next month. Jenn asked me to come take some maternity photos of her, and of course I said yes. Once the wedding is over, the relationships I have with my clients never end. I hope to be their photographer for all the special moments. You can bet I will be there when baby comes home from the hospital as well to create more memories.

I have known Cynthia since I was 15 years old when we used to be “Birthday Party Co-Ordinators” at Easy Street. Those were the days I tell ya, making $4.20/hr and serving pizza to 5 year olds. It was actually really fun and we had some great times there. When Cynthia and Buddy heard I was going to be in Hawaii at the same time as them, she asked if I could do family photos for them. Of course I was more than happy to shoot a session in Hawai’i. Like I’d ever say no to that! We shot all these photos right on our beautiful timeshare resort that we own in, Ko Olina O’ahu. Taelienna and Cao were awesome kids to shoot. They were willing to do anything I asked and we had a blast! I know you guys will cherish these family photos for a long time. Kids grow up so fast, love every minute of it. Thanks for the sushi dinner and making me try oysters for the first time ever!

Alisa & Ray – Baby on the way! | Calgary Maternity PhotographerMarch 12th, 2009Ray and I go way back. We first met working at Moxie’s in 1997. That’s 12 years already, wow. Ray is one of the few buddies I still talk to from my Moxie’s days. We even lived as room mates once upon a time in Rundle. I was supposed to shoot Alisa and Ray’s wedding [...] |
Ray and I go way back. We first met working at Moxie’s in 1997. That’s 12 years already, wow. Ray is one of the few buddies I still talk to from my Moxie’s days. We even lived as room mates once upon a time in Rundle. I was supposed to shoot Alisa and Ray’s wedding last year, but they had to change their date due to venue conflicts. Unfortunately it had to be a day that I was already booked.
Ray recently told me Alisa was 7 months pregnant. I have always wanted to do a maternity session, but never really had a good opportunity… until now. I knew these two would make a good shoot and Alisa looks good pregnant! We got some pretty hot shots that are for their eyes only 
. Here are the ones I can share. Thanks for having me over and starting your first family treasures for you. I can’t wait to meet your boy or girl!

The Brown Family at Lac Des Arcs – Family & Lifestyle PhotographyJanuary 25th, 2009Although I do most of my family photography in Calgary, I am always willing to take a drive to visit a client.

Although I do most of my family photography in Calgary, I am always willing to take a drive to visit a client. I prefer to shoot my clients in their environment. I find it more relaxing for the client and much more fun too, of course! Brent remembered my work at Rebecca & Vedran’s wedding this past August. He emailed me and wanted family photos done, so I asked him what do they like to do for fun? He said his cabin! So he invited me out to their cabin right on the shores of Lac Des Arc, near Banff National Park. It was a chilly -28 that day, but that didn’t stop us from having fun. We shot inside the cabin for a little bit and enjoyed the warmth of the fireplace. It was nice to see a real fireplace, because all ones we see nowadays are the fake gas fireplaces. Throwing in a new log always reminds me of my childhood when we had a real fireplace in our home.
Anyway, I just wanted to thank you guys for a great time and the awesome chai and gingerbread cookies. I hope we can do it again sometime in the summer or when it’s warmer. 
We can play on the lake and capture the beautiful Rockies surrounding it.

If some of you have been following my work, you’ll remember Duane and Kim’s wedding out on Two Jack Lake in February. Duane is one of my good friends from when we used to work at Moxie’s together. Hayden is now over 5 months old and he’s is growing so fast! He’s a perfect split between both parents and it was such a joy to photograph their new family. Duane and I have already created a line combination for when our sons are ready to play hockey. There’s so much in store for Hayden. And he’ll only look like this for a short time, so enjoy it while it lasts!

I met the Tam family through my friend Bao, who’s family pictures you may have also seen on my blog a few posts back. They really loved what I was able to do with Bao’s family photos and wanted to see if I could shoot their new arrival, Elliot. When I finally met Henry and Tanya, we talked about the idea of shooting them. And to prove what a small world it really is, I went to high school with Tanya and we both graduated in 1996! Of course I game to shoot photos for them. This time I decided to ditch my studio lights and shoot in the style I truly love, with natural light and in a relaxed non intrusive way at the client’s home. Elliot was quite the trooper as he was awake most of the time I was there. They are a young family just like mine and it was almost to easy to get good stuff out of them. Thanks for having me come over to your wonderful home to spend a few hours with you guys. We’ll definitely do it again when Elliot’s 1 year old!
