Heidi and Gary have added a new member to their family. The adorable Haley was a treat to photograph. She was very patient with us as she went through a few costume changes and had to endure the endless flashes. As you can see, Haley has some great parents that are more than excited that [...]
I photographed Bella and her family last year. She’s still a bit shy to start, but it didn’t take her long to warm up to the camera. I mostly gave her some distance and again encouraged her to play. Being a little older now, she responds more to direction. Glenmore Park on the North side [...]
Devry held their 2011 convocation ceremony Saturday in Calgary. I was excited to be the official photographer again this year. The occasion also marked their 30th Anniversary. City of Calgary Ward 10 Alderman and Devry graduate, Andre Chabot, was invited to be the feature speaker. The portrait [...]
A sunny lunch hour stroll with friends around Prince’s Island Park made for fun photographic adventures. One of our goals was to get some softer, long-exposure shots of the river. The bright sun made it difficult to slow down the shutter, even with a polarising filter. I managed some nice shots of the fountain as [...]
I had a great day for shooting Hoar frost. A friend and I took advantage of a sunny noon hour to take some photos in the parking lot. The bright sun caused the South facing frost on the sides of the trees and bushes to melt, while the still frigid air maintained the North facing [...]
It’s always fun to photograph Leon and Louise’s family. They were celebrating the American Thanksgiving, so they had everyone together, which is difficult to do. They have a nice park behind their home, so the original plan was to do the portraits there. However, just a week before our scheduled sitting, we had our first snowfall [...]
The exciting day finally arrived for Steven and Amanda. The wedding was simple and elegant, with a beautiful bride and bridesmaids. We took the wedding party to Prince’s Island Park in downtown Calgary. We’ve had heavy smoke in Calgary from forest fires in B.C.. I was concerned about the effect of the smoke on the [...]
Tim and Crick have the cutest kids. You might not be able to tell from the photo on the right, but there are only two of them. As usual, they were a bit shy, but they didn’t take long to open up and relax around the camera. They have a great back yard with a [...]
I really had fun with Wally and Gill. The small ceremony was in their friend’s back yard. It was beautifully landscaped with several trees and flowers. They also had reflecting globes that added a neat touch. The weather also cooperated enough to hold back the rain while the overcast sky made the greenery really come [...]
Photographing Bella was an amazing amount of fun. She’s a very dynamic child with a lot of personality. We made it easy for her by letting her play in the grass and explore. The experience of freedom for her made it easy for her to ignore the camera and just be herself. When she started [...]
