Be My Valentine?  Hmmm, if I’m being perfectly honest, I’m not a fan of Valentine’s Day.  It’s commercial, contrived and back in University, my friends and I wore black to commemorate the day (I may or may not still continue this tradition).  This year I’m going to turn it around and celebrate by focusing on something authentic… real Calgary couples and their true love stories.  On Thursday this week, I’ll be starting a series on marriage featuring three couples with fun and thoughtful insight into the institution.  What interview would be complete without some pretty pictures so I’ll feature a couple’s shoot with each post.

I’ll give you a little hint.  The Mrs from Thursday’s couple is a Style Blogger in Calgary.  Don’t miss it.

A “breakfast-in-bed” shoot for Valentine’s Day last year, if you’d like to see.
