Laura and Conor met with me a year and a half before their date wedding, their up-beat energy and enthusiasm that they share for what seems like everything in life,  was so contagious.  When they chose me to capture their wedding I knew this was going to be simply something really cool to be a part of… but I had no idea the magnitude of how special it would be.  When we met 10 months or so later to do their engagement session they showed up in super sexy fun cloths and after about a half hour into our session Laura says… “So we brought paints and thought it could be fun to use them in the photos…” and in the blink of an eye they go from urban-sexy to oh-natural, hair pulled back t-shirts on and the games began…! Here are some re-caps….  Below theses is their wedding day!  It was something to remember-  so filled with love,  joy and absolute support for their wedding union!  Laura and Conor you two are very blessed…. no question about that!!!

They chose Solara to get ready in as each room is fully equipped with big lux kitchen’s and high ceilings, huge windows and space omega for getting ready in and they shared their ceremony reception at the marvellous Silvertip Restort.  They also hired the uber talented  Ashely, from Signature Weddings by Ashley  as their wedding Planner– Making their wedding day completely stress free and seamlessly perfect!

Oh to be young and in love…..

Banff WeddingsKaren contacted me in June and told me she and her fiancee were wishing to get their engagement photos done at Moraine before they moved back east to Ontario to start their real life together, close to their families.  At the time I was booked solid but Karen insisted… please we love your images and it is so important to us.   They said they would be driving with their moter home back east and  could stay the night in Banff… Their one night turned into three as we had a strange bad weather patter run though Banff.  They said no worries they would wait days for the sun to come out if need be!!!   So even before meeting these two in person… they captivated me;) So yes there are many passionate kissing photos in here but… this wonderful couple reminded me why I love my job and why love is so much fun.  They were charged up and had their game on for their session—climbing rocks around raging rivers, hiking little mountains for great photos, and the most important thing was that they were engaged with each other– not just for marriage (which they are) but they flowed together– they looked at each other and with every look came a big smile and kisses and touches!  I actually have very few photos where they are both looking in my direction–  sounds silly but it was like that because they were lost in each other!  They left me inspired;)

Jill and Rolf’s beautiful Ghost River camping wedding

Flowers: Dahlia Floral Design  |    Dress:  The Calgary Bridal Centre    |      Makeup: Beauty Mark Makeovers       |     Ten and Catering:  Great Events   |  Guitarist:   RSVP Wedding   |  Photography :  Crista Lee Photography

 

This couple have one of the sweetest love stories filled with passion and a strong love for the outdoors, dancing and family!  Jill is a Canadian who met the love of her life  (Rolf is a mountain climber from Switzerland) while on an international adventure. As it can happen the happiness they felt together brought Rolf to move to Canada to be with Jill!  Ironically I personally met Rolf while ice climbing a couple of year ago and I asked him “Why would you  leave a beautiful place like Switzerland?”  And he replied “I met this wonderful Canadian girl”.  A year later he called me and said that wonderful Canadian girl said she would marry him and they asked me to capture their wedding!  I was honoured!  They shared their wedding celebration in Jills Parents back yard in the breathtaking Ghost River– camping style!!  Many of Rolf’s family flew over from Europe to celebrate their wedding as did their international collection of super fun friends!  They had an outdoor games time post ceremony where everyone had a blast mingling and playing rad games like slackening.

 

Given the amount of family support and passion these two share I was blessed to get to be a part of their day… I have a great sense these two will rock marriage!!!

As you can see they were very smart to have rented the big white heated dome tent as the rain storm moved in so quick just as they were about to walk down the isle!

Lyndel and Bob’s Lake Louise elegant wedding elopement

Getting ready venue: Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise   | Dress:  Berta Bridal   |   Flowers: Forget Me Not (Banff)   |  Hair and Makeup: Botega (Banff)  |   Wedding commissioner : The wonderful Marion Kutzer

I think the feeling of seeing Lyndel in her dress for the first time was something I will not ever forget… I have never seen such an exquisite and elegant cut outline a body in a way that was so graceful and timeless, yet so hyper sexy awesome!  Lyndel with her sweet modest and quite beauty, (anyone who knows her would agree with)  turned the heads of every person in the Chateau Lake Louise that day!  In these photos you will see where Bob seen her for the first time pre-cermony in private, which is not the traditional way which that an unveiling happens,  but we made a choice months before that they woudl be best with their guest directly after the ceremony!  I arranged for us to meet in the Chateau’s  Victoria Ballroom for her officially unofficial unveiling… Just watch in the photos the way he loves her, I don’t think one second passed that he didn’t have her held so tight it would and would have leave any spectator of this couple so happy for the love they share!

I hope you all enjoy their photos and I can not thank Marion enough for her beautiful ceremony she prepared for us and this wonderful couple for choosing me to capture their heartfelt wedding.
