Snow Play Winter Session...

There is something so 'peaceful' about winter in fish creek park, the blue sky, the glistening snow....aaahhhh...THEN you add a family who LOVES to play and maybe you get another scene...like, snow in the face, a little shoving, snow racing, tree hugging....
Yep, that's my little bro & his family alright. No posing here ( well, maybe a little), but mostly we're talking about a family who can just be who they are in front of a camera which makes my work a breeze...expose, focus & shoot. Oh, and laugh, lots & lots.
Nice work Mark, Jess, Chris & little Ms.Nevaeh, you guys were great!

Padget Family....

This is one awesome family... I used to watch over little Cohen ( lovingly known as Coco to us..) before Laura welcomed her second little gem into their family.
We decided to keep the session indoors where it was warm and cozy, and I'm glad we did. I had so much fun watching the kids in their element and also the sweet interactions between Laura & Rob...for example...(me) 'Hey Rob, make Laura laugh...' (Rob) 'Sure thing..' he then gets her into a serious bear hug and basically wrestles her down to the ground.....lol. Um...not quite what I had envisioned but it sure gave us some great photo ops & lots of laughs!!
Thanks you guys- enjoy the preview!

Creating art out of plumbing...?

I love my job. Seriously. LOVE. Especially the firsts- the first wedding, the first newborn shoot, the first time I got to experiment with food to make it look scrumptious to viewers ( you can check out those images by going to www.savourfood.ca). So naturally I jumped at the opportunity to create some wall art for the new Stampede plumbing showroom.
Heres's to another first, finding coolness ( yep, that is a word) in lines, curves, metals, faucets and heaters.
Thanks Sandy & Dean for this opportunity, I really hope I've managed to create what you had in mind...

Meyer Family...

I've known Chelsea for a few years now, I met her & her hubby Hans through our good friends, the Palmers. She's Jared's little sis, and I DO mean little, (especially when standing right next to her hubby:) and they've only just recently moved to Calgary from the States. We've been talking about her wanting family photos for a little while now, and although we finally found a day that worked, her little guy Austin had other plans. He was completely uninterested in me or my camera for pretty much the whole shoot ( EVEN after sweet bribes and me making goofy faces..) So this one had to be a record for the fastest session ever, but you know what, I have to say that I'm quite pleased with the results, there's at least one smiling boy in the mix:)

Enjoy the preview..
