Rich and Linda

Rich and Linda met at the U of A and we went back there to take some engagement photos... it was a chilly day and Penny and I shared a camera, tromping around campus looking for awesome shots. There's something sweet about finding love in school. From the coffee haunts, to where you crammed for your last exam, the memories stay with you in a nostalgic fuzz. What a great way to prep for your wedding!

Oliver

Oliver might just be one of the cutest babies we've ever photographed... who's a cute little redhead? He is!! His papa is a dentist, and you can already tell by his grin! Such a charismatic baby, I can't wait to watch him grow. I hope we get to shoot him every year...


We've been playing around with effects on our photos... nothing too cheesy, but tell us what you think!

Alexis Maternity

We first met Ryan and Alexis two years ago when they asked me to do some fun couple photos for them, since then Alexis has been in our photos as a bridesmaid and now as a Mom to be!

Alexis wanted to have some photos done to make her "love her baby body" and we were more than happy to oblige. Fortunately we also had time to sneak in some fun and ridiculous photos which perfectly capture the personalities of this awesome couple!

(Ryan and Alexis have since had a beautiful baby girl, Avery. Congratulations!!!)

Meredith

I get the privilege of working with Meredith at MAC, but she's been on mat leave for the arrival of baby Ivy, who is still a bun in the oven when these photos took place. The character below is Stella, who has enough personality for an entire town of children, and who loves the camera ferociously. But it's okay since she's probably the cutest thing to grace the planet since Shirley Temple.

Mike and Christiane

Photographing Mike and Christiane's wedding in Cuba was a definite highlight of my year. Everything was so beautiful, blue skies, flowers, pillars, sunsets.........so fun! There were about 30 wedding guests, all awesome, which made for a beautiful, intimate wedding and even better vacation (there was always someone to play water polo or beach badminton with!). Here are some of my favorite photos.

Cuban resort breakfast, the little side dish of chocolate sauce is not in the photo.

Reason #1 why beach weddings are so awesome - you can enjoy an alcoholic beverage while waiting for the ceremony to start!

After taking this photo I showed it to Christiane. Her reaction? Saying "It's so beautiful" and then bursting into tears. I don't go out of my way to make our brides cry but I did have a little 'Yay Me!' moment.

When we stopped at the room after the ceremony we found that the maids had decorated the room for Mike and Christiane. They even used her veil on the little towel bride they made. Cute!

I was so excited to do some beach sunset photos! The challenge? Getting everything done quickly as the sun sets really fast, watching the tide to make sure it did not soak my battery pack (or me), and hollering at wandering tourists to keep them out of my shot. I am really happy with the results and loved every minute of it though! Many thanks to Christiane's Dad, Gaston, who held my battery pack out of the water.

I'm still not sure where the animal print coat came from but you had to wear it before you did a speech!

Chicken Dance!
More funny than Mike's face in this photo is the guys in the background!
I still have the sand in my light bag to remind me of all the good times (although it annoys Aspen). Thanks again friends!!

Boudoir Photos!

We are teaming up with Lady Luck Make-Up on a mission to make you look and feel amazing! On January 26th we will be doing a Boudoir Marathon aimed at all the women out there who think they are hot. Not sure if you have what it takes to look like a sex kitten? You do! Just talk to us about what works for you, star in your own pin-up photo shoot, pose in your sexiest lingerie, or go for something more subtle and artistic. Either way you will look fantastic and have original, creative photos as a constant reminder of how awesome you are.

All photo shoots will be done in a private, comfortable location. Packages are $300, this will include make-up by Lady Luck Make-Up, a one hour photo session with Centree Photography, 20 images on CD and a $20 photo credit.

This is a great time for a saucy Valentine's Day gift for that special someone......or just for you. We all need to be reminded of how beautiful and sexy we are!
