It was cold, it was windy but it was an absolutely breathtaking afternoon at Elbow falls. The sun came out to kiss Euniz’s arms and she looked absolutely stunning! We did this shoot in a half hour due not only due to the cold but when the sun goes behind the mountains in Kananaskis country the light is gone! I wish we cold have had at least another half hour to run around on the rocks but regardless we still managed to get some beautiful shots. Euniz thank you for all of the goosebumps that you endured. You were freezing but you still managed to make it look easy. You are amazing and I love you to bits! xox Shawna

Meet Nicole & David equal total awesomeness. First of all they are totally beautiful. These two are cool and they know how to keep it real! They make this world better just by being on it. We are planning on two shoots. Originally the idea was to have their session at elbow falls but as soon as David casually told me he had a Farrari in the garage….well we HAD to include it in their shoot. How would I describe this couple: Part urban and part in tune with nature. This is why it is imperative to do two shoots to show both sides of who they are!

We all know that weddings are “the main event”, but a good warm up is vital for a star performance on your big day. What do we mean by warm up … your engagement photo’s of course! I absolutely love engagement sessions, it’s usually our first time really getting to interact with you guys behind the lens, we laugh, we have fun, and we leave the session even more excited to see you guys again. Did we just become friends? Yup. When we schedule your engagement session we’ll throw around ideas for locations, style, and the theme of your shoot … we love it when couples tell us they trust our creativeness but we want the session to fit “you”. The more it fits you guys as a couple then the more comfortable you will feel in front of the lens, from what you wear to what you do. I love setting up poses & shooting at new locations! And some helpful hints to make your engagement session perfectly you

1. Be comfortable … like we said before wear clothes you are comfortable in and especially shoes as sometimes we do a bit of walking to get to that perfect location. Guys you can look cool and comfortable too!
2. Be yourself! The most fun pictures are the natural ones … make each other laugh, be silly, and have fun! Except of course this shoot where is simply demanded and edgy look!
3. Be sweet with each other. Yes we want you to have fun but take a moment during your session to just enjoy each other. This is an hour of your life that you will have documented for all of time in photographs, so sit back, smile, and soak up the moment together.
4. Bring things that mean something to your relationship! Maybe it’s a football rivalry, a line from your favorite song, or maybe your both just a little nerdy. Whatever it is … bring it, we’ll use it, and even if no one else gets it … the important thing is you both do!
5. Be open and ready to have a good time! I am always excited for every shoot and we hope you will be too. And if your a good jumper … let us know. It could be the difference between a good jump …
6. Last but not least … LOVE your photographer!

Thank you Nicole & David. It was a cold shoot but you did an amazing job! I can’t wait for your wedding! Lots of love – Shawna

Meet Carly and Craig!  They are genuine, down to earth and very fun to be around!  Oh yes, and did I say organized!  When we met Craig he was already starting his Christmas shopping!  Mike and I had an amazing time gallivanting around Inglewood.  These two are in love and they wear it on their sleeves.  They are so easy to be around too!  The conversation is never ending.  When we first met at our studio we hit it off immediately which is so important.  We all love dogs and we also live a few blocks away from each other.  How perfect is that!

Carly and Craig I am so incredibly honored to be photographing your wedding in May, and I have no doubt it’ll be a perfect reflection of your love.  Lots of love – Shawna & Mike

This is the Wilde family and as you can see they are absolutely adorable! They are sweet, fun, full of energy and let’s just say I was pooped after our shoot! I love working with families. The different seasons you walk through in life with your family are precious. Even if you have a grumpy & crying two year old, you (and THEY) will be happy that you captured this time along the way. I am not interested in capturing the “perfect” family photo where everyone is flawless and wearing their perfectly pressed matching outfits. I am interested in capturing the honest moments, the joy and spontaneity of life as it unfolds in the moment. I love this session because it is exactly that. Enjoy…

Meet Caroline & Chris! They are fun, smart, serious but funny! I have been to Ibiza and so have they! I love their taste in clothes, music and overall I really like them! We ended up getting together twice to finish their engagement session. On the first shoot we were on our way down to Elbow Falls. We mad a pit stop by the bridge so that we could take some cool urban shots using our new ring flash and by the time we were done the sun was going down. Chis (aka Mr Mario Andretti) tried his best to chase after the sun so we could continue our shoot but it was too late! Take two! The second day was sooooo worth it. We went to a park near where they live in the NW and the light was stunning! The problem with sweet light is it only lasts for maybe 45 minutes. I wish it lasted for hours!!! Mind you we wouldn’t call it the “sweet light” if it did. Thank you Caroline & Chris. I had an amazing time and I can’t wait for your wedding day! Lots of love – Shawna
