Weird. Hostage situation at discovery channel headquarters. I'd be pissed too - shark week should be two weeks long! # 2010/09/01

Bridal Expo 2009

September 29, 2009

Wow, what an intense weekend!  This was the first time I had a booth at Bridal Expo and it was quite the experience.  Firstly, I need to make a huge thank you for the 12 hour day that Erin, her fiancee Brian, and my wife Lindsey put into the setup of the booth.  It doesn’t look extravagant but there were a lot of things we weren’t prepared for which amounted to last minute dashes around the city.  And incredibly extra special thanks to Brian alone for simply busting his hump with all of his jack-of-all-trades talents! This booth wouldn’t have happened without you.  Also, another big thank you to Samantha for helping out the day of the event for handing out pamphlets and keeping a smiling face. One last thank you to the folks at Whimsical Cupcakes and the ladies at Best Buds Flowers keeping us company, checking in on us, and your support!

Below is a photo of our booth – not bad for a first time exhibitor.

Thank you for all the brides and friends who stopped by and gave me a moment of your time. I e-mailed all of those who signed up for an engagement session – please get back to me to book your date in October as soon as possible!

Rosnau Family Photos

September 15, 2009

It’s been a while since i’ve posted any photos from a family photo session. So, just in case some of you have forgotten that I do family photos, here are a few sneak peeks from my session with the Rosnau Family. We headed down to my favorite location as of late, the area around the Kinsmen Sports Center.

Breanne and Adrian: Engagement Photosession | Edmonton Photography

September 11, 2009

So I usually go into every job confident in my abilities and knowing that i’ll get some great stuff without any worries.  When I met up with Breanne and Adrian down at the Kinsmen Sports and Leisure Center we got talking about things, and then Breanne tells me there are only about three photos of her that she likes. That sentence was an instant recipe for nervousness and pressure!  Anyways, all went well, and now hopefully i’ve bumped the likeable photo count up to four or five.

It was a comfortably cool and overcast evening. Being overcast always creates a bit of a challenge, but worst it ruins my plans for catching the setting sun.  Towards the end of the shoot, the sun peeks ok just barely allowing me to catch a few golden shots.

Breanne and Adrian, i’ll see you folks in one months!

Erin and Alex: Wedding at University of Alberta Faculty Club

September 5, 2009

Erin and Alex were friends of previous clients of mine, Emily and Michael.  I love it when a couple hear about me through word-of-mouth and then hire me – i really feel like im doing a pretty good job when that happens!  Both Erin and Alex are very natural together and easy to relax. They are also very hard working and caring – Alex, and orthopaedic surgeon and Erin, a nurse.  Even though the weather was gloomy and rainy for the entire day there were no complaints or disappointment. Everyone was just simply happy and hilarious. Everyone from the family to the guest were an extreme pleasure to be around during the day. I was very fortunate to be given the opportunity to document this day for them.

Both the ceremony and reception were held at the University of Alberta Faculty Club.  This place always knows how to class it up! Thier food is to die for! The brocolli and cheesecake last night were absolutely stellar! The stunning flowers featured prominently below were created by the very talented Kim and her crew at Best Buds Flower Company.

Because of the weather this obviously created a little hiccup in the photographic plans.  Erin and Alex chose the Legislative Grounds as their destination, and it worked out great.  We were able to take cover from the rain while it rained, and while there was a break in the downfall we were able to snap away!
