Calgary bridal guide wedding

What a thrill to have Wunmi and Olu’s Calgary bridal guide wedding featured in print.  The latest issue of the CBG is now out on shelves so be sure to get yourself a copy.  Not only were Wunmi and Olu a gorgeous couple, but their Contemporary Calgary wedding exuded downtown Calgary style.  Stephen Avenue made the perfect location for downtown wedding portraits.

Launch of the new Calgary Bridal Guide

Last night I attended the launch of the latest issue of the new Calgary Bridal Guide, at one of my favourite venues,
The Art Gallery of Calgary. If you’re a bride planning your wedding in Calgary, you need to get your hands on a copy ASAP. I’m so pleased to have a number of my photos featured in this issue but I have to admit, I’m even more anxious for the issue to be released before Christmas with MY PHOTO on the cover. It’s a very cool photo with a vintage feel and a lot of Alberta heart. I can’t wait. While that cover is still under wraps, there’s good news. When we shot the cover, we did it in two parts with two locations and two different gowns. Shots from the first location can be seen throughout the issue on the shelves now. In the coming days, I’m going to do a blog post featuring all the details from that day. In the interim, here’s a sneak peek of one of the pairs of shoes the bride wore that day. I love that multiple pairs of shoes were required (I guess you could say it’s a mantra of mine). Stay tuned…

Whitney & Tyler Engagement Session – Black Diamond

I was completely intrigued when Whitney and I discussed this engagement session in Black Diamond. Whitney told me there would be horses, quads, a river, wildflowers…I was sold. I’m really looking forward to their wedding at the Cochrane Ranchehouse in August. Check out their sneak peek here.

Toast Idea from Pinterest

By now, you’ve probably heard of Pinterest. It’s a great way to “pin” all of the great wedding ideas you see on the internet in one place and a phenomenal tool for brides planning a wedding. For example, the other day I saw this very creative idea for the Best Man’s toast and “pinned” it. I first heard about Pinterest from the amazing wedding blog Style Me Pretty and have been an addict ever since. You can follow my boards here. Happy Pinning!

Favourite Stampede Moment

I had some great stampede fun this year including my shoot with this awesome couple, but my favourite stampede moment was when I took 2 of my nephews to Scotchman’s Hill to watch the fireworks. Their faces say it all.
