Jordan & Danielle's E. Session

Downtown Edmonton was the backdrop for my photography session with this sweet couple, who will be getting married next year. From back alleys to rooftops, this city's concrete jungle provided some great settings and ideas as we photographed this pair of lovebirds. Conditions were great on this beautiful, warm Sunday evening - the sun gave us excellent lighting options, and also it was not too busy out, except for those who were taking advantage of outdoor restaurant patios.





















Jordan & Danielle are a fun outgoing couple who seemed to have a lot of fun in this unique engagement photo setting, and it really showed on their faces. Thanks so much!

Agape Love

Agape means Love in Greek, but not just love is the deeper kind of love. This word represents divine, unconditional, self-sacrificing, active, volitional, and thoughtful love. No wonder why Jerry named his dental office love. They are full of fun and love for their patient. I had an amazing time capturing the staff and the beautiful decoration. I'm just into that red wall. Here are some shots from the session.

Tracey and Her Source

I met Tracey over a year ago at her store BirthSource. She is a professional doula who opened a baby store on the east side of Edmonton. It's a very nice store with an array of unique things for babies and moms. I hung a couple of baby pictures up at her place, along with my business cards and price lists, and have been blessed with a lot of new moms and babies coming from there.

She decided that it is time for her family to take professional portraits, so they all dressed nice and headed to my studio back in September. A very nice outgoing family with a lot of passion towards each other. We had so much fun, and we tried so many different poses! I really enjoyed the photoshoot with this family.










Your store is beautiful, by the way. Keep up the good work, Tracey! I can't wait to shop there for myself someday... :)

The Allan Family at Hawrelak Park

In the fall, I had a newborn in my studio with her little sister. She had grown up so much since I last saw her. Little Ilaria looked so big and smiley, her outfit matching with her big sister as we headed to the park to play around in the bright yellow leaves.





Mackenzie loved to be outside, feed the ducks, and play in the leaves - she had her own understanding of what is to be in the park; try to tell a two-year old to sit down when it's so nice out! So, instead of sitting we lay down in the leaves and when that couldn't occupy her, Daddy had to bring all his muscle out and play airplane with her.







What a great day! Thank you guys, that was so much fun. Looking forward to photographing you again.
