Amanda & Ivan : Married

Well I am back, after a 2 week hiatus from blogging, be prepared for a lot of catch up. This month is flying by and so many shoots, I admit I have gotten a little behind. So check back often for some great posts!

And now for Amanda and Ivan. I travelled to their home town of
Norquay, SK to shoot their prairie wedding. It was amazing, I love small towns! By the end of the weekend I felt like part of the family.

Amanda and Ivan were married in a beautiful Ukrainian Church, full of tradition... I ate it all up, it was amazing! After the ceremony we left on the "stretch limo" a.k.a. the fabulous
motor home for some formal shots. We went to a lake, and travelled around the beautiful country. The canola was amazing, green and this couple was stunning! Thanks for letting me part of your day. I am so sad to hear you are moving south, but I am sure your family definitely approves!

Jody + Mike : Engaged

I had such a blast with these two. Jody & Mike just bought their first home together, and it was breathtaking. The grounds around the house lead from one great location to the next. These two are fabulous... Mike is sooooo funny! He really loved hammin it up for my camera, and I really appreciated it too! He has a way of making Jody laugh, and this gorgeous bride to be has the most beautiful, natural smile, and I was happy to oblige and snap away. At one point in the evening Mike even wrote and sang for me a little tune on his GEE-Tar all about my photography, I think I may have even blushed :) I am so excited for their wedding, enjoy some of my favs from the night...

I could handle this view for my backyard...


This is one of my fav's
I've said it before, I wish God had blessed me with such beautiful long legs.

Jody and Mike would like to thank their friends for this wonderful "house warming present" ... it made for a great prop in the flowers.
Jody really wanted to do this shot, I wasn't sure how it would turn out, but I love it. Its kind of a throwback to a 1950s ad. (Jody you really did rock the lawnmower!)
This is when Mike sang me MY Song! Thanks Mike I will treasure this moment forever.. haha



These two are so in love, I can't wait for your big day!


They even went on the crazy idea I had, and for the final frames of the night had some fun in the pool. You two ROCK!

Fuentes Family

I met Oral a long time ago, and ever since have been blessed with a wonderful friendship that has included shots for his fabulous Band: Oral Fuentes Reggae Band. He rocked the house at our wedding reception last year, people are still talking about it!
So when his beautiful wife Beth contacted me to take some family pictures for them I was delighted! Beth and Oral welcomed their beautiful daughter Safiya earlier this year, and Roquel was visiting for summer so it was the perfect time. We headed out on a hot hot day, and had some fun, I am so impressed at what a hottie Beth is for just having Safiya, thanks for rockin it out Beth! So here are some from the day, also check out their awesome slideshow.
