Lawrence & Dennell... Engaged!

Louise McKinney Park has become one of our favourite locations to shoot at, so it seemed like the perfect location for Lawrence and Dennell's duo engagement-slash-family portrait session.

They kept us laughing throughout the entire shoot and every photo was better than the last. If you don't believe us (or even if you do), here are a few examples:

Scott & Susan... the Countdown is on!

With only a month to go until the wedding, we headed out to more than a few locations around Edmonton - the U of A Arts Building, the High Level Bridge, Whyte Ave and their old apartment (insert Barenaked Ladies tune, "the Old Apartment" here).

Shooting Scott and Susan was incredibly easy, as they needed very little instruction, were super happy and allowed us to be a fly on the wall in their day. They were a blast to photograph, and we so can't wait until their big day!

Take a look and you'll see why, starting with the old apartment:






In case you're wondering what is says, it's "Be a lover, not a fighter."


This background is not fake, but it sure looks that way:

Chris & Megan... the Engagement

We met with Chris and Megan at the St. Albert Grain Elevator Park, which turned out as a superb backdrop for this beautiful couple's engagement portraits.

This venue has tons of settings to play off of and play in for some adventurous shots. Chris and Megan came to the shoot with excellent energy and we took full advantage of it, the weather and the site - as you can see in the following snapshots:




Dan's fav - Megan looks fierce:




We all jumped in the Jetta TDI for a trek to an obliging farmer's field.



Rachel's favourite due to the contortionist pose she had to get into to take the shot - not to mention Megan & Chris look smokin':

Kevin & Rachelle Are Engaged!

We had the opportunity to head out north of the city for a great engagement session with Kevin and Rachelle. They were great fun and we look forward to shooting their wedding - it'll be a blast - especially when you look at the pictures and see how in love they are!

Here's a few from the day:



We thought this photo had an old-school Polaroid SX-70 feel, so we made it look as if it was.



We just love their Legion uniforms! So cute!

Stephen & Ashley!

We headed out to the beautiful Greystone Gardens Bed & Breakfast near Devon with this fun-loving couple. The lush surroundings only emphasized the simple elegance of their outdoor wedding.

Though the sun was perfect for Stephen and Ashley's wedding, we were all thankful to head into the shade for a few formals.  Take a peek at a few of our favs:



Steve's showing us that he finally got on his ring:





Bet you can't stop looking at her eyes!


Something is creeping in the bushes behind Ashley:


Oh, it's just Stephen...



She found her prince (yeah, we went there - we know it's cheesy):

Mark & Amy's Wedding!

Hello all! We recently had the honour of shooting the wedding of an amazing couple, Mark and Amy. We met these two awesome people at Amy's sister Tara's wedding last year, which we also shot.

We once again had a blast with this group and got some amazing photos. It's not often we get the chance to bond with our clients at this level, but we felt as though we were shooting one of our own family events.

Take a look at some of our favourites, starting with Amy, then a couple details:
