Isabelle Faith | Calgary Birth Photography

Monday, April 9, 2012 10:15 pm Posted in Birth, Photojournalism

Photography is so much more than just an occupation for me. It’s a challenge of observation.  Photography pushes me to think beyond the norm to best document what happens around me. Each day billions of stories happen simultaneously, significant and seemingly insignificant moments. Photography is a tool, not necessarily required, but one mean of preserving and sharing these moments.

One of the greatest honours is to be trusted in documenting a couple or a family’s story. More images of the first moments of Isabelle Faith’s life can be seen on my personal blog.

Danielle and Grant | Victoria Engagement

Thursday, April 5, 2012 2:09 am Posted in Engagements

Two people deeply in love. I love how they laugh with each other. I love how they were willing to try anything. I loved spending the time just walking the beach with them. Danielle and Grant – you are an absolute delight to be around.

Thanks so much Sam for helping me with this shoot!

Wendi and Sam | Couple Session

Sunday, February 26, 2012 10:42 pm Posted in Engagements

So what feels like a ridiculously long time ago I showed you this image of Wendi and Sam. Wendi had contacted me after seeing Joy and Josh’s engagement session and as a budding photographer (slash now I see far being budding and more like producing über strong work) we met just to discuss photography and life. That turned into a miniature 20 minute couples session.

Here are a handful of images at the University of Michigan.

Brittany, I can’t even find the words to describe how DELIGHTED I am with this session. I feel so fortunate to have met someone as sweet and immensely talented as you! Your words of encouragement meant so much to me at a time when I was feeling uncertain, and I credit you for inspiring me to take on photography. Thank you, thank you, for everything!!

Justen Bowden - You guys are adorable. I miss you.

Danielle and Grant | Just One

Saturday, February 25, 2012 6:22 pm Posted in Engagements

I’m back after visiting six countries and summer. Yes, I visited summer and it was absolutely lovely.

Today I had the delight of meeting with Danielle and Grant for the first part of their engagement session. It was so frigid today in Calgary with flurries that developed to drifting snow, which then became blowing snow (yes these are technical terms in Canada) right when we started their shoot.  Needless to say the primary concept of this session was to ‘cuddle’ and ‘keep each other warm’. Thankfully they are perfectly capable of both of these and look so sweet doing so even if it was -20C/-5F with windchill. Just one for now.

Happy couples make me happy.
