The Vierneza Family

It was a beautiful, sunny fall day - until about twenty minutes before our session, when a massive dark cloud took away the gorgeous light. Despite that disappointment, we still had a blast playing around in the Botanical Gardens of Silver Springs, capturing some energetic images surrounded by autumn hues.

The Raugusts in Baker Park

I hadn't even heard of Baker Park before Kristin suggested it to me as a place to do her family session, and boy was it a great idea! What a beautiful, open green space to take some energetic family shots. They wanted a portrait with a predominant blue feature to match home decor, and a blue walled building near the entrance fit the bill perfectly. Then, the rest of the park became our playground.

The Cramptons in Didsbury

It was a surprisingly warm day out in Didsbury a little over a week ago when I had the pleasure of photographing the Crampton family - lots of goofing around made the shoot a real joy. What sweet girls, and a family that loves nothing more than spending time together.

Generations

Earlier this month I had a session with my biggest group yet, twelve people across three generations, to celebrate the Leo's (the grandfather) birthday. We went out to the Botanical Gardens of Silver Springs, which is an absolutely gorgeous place to shoot with the thick stands of trees and open fields, and had a blast. The five children were enthusiastic and energetic, especially the three oldest who made me feel quite old as we ran around. Here are a few images from the shoot:

Sunset Fun

The Slobodecki family won a photo session with me thanks to Ryan Shandruk - Calgary RE/MAX Realty Professionals, and we found an amazingly sunny, warm evening last week to visit Fish Creek Park to make the portraits. This is an awesome family, a real pleasure to work with and really interested in getting some fun, natural images. I think the good times we had show in the photos:
