Bullock’s Wedding in Blue Devil Golf Club, Calgary

Below are some of the images from Brittney & Mike’s wedding that we shot with JM Photography. These photographs showcase a candid story of the day from the First Look down to the reception itself.

First Look at Bow River

The wedding day began with Mike waiting for his bride with his groomsmen at the bottom of a river valley that sits next to the Bow River in Calgary. While the groom and the groomsmen waited (and drank from their flasks) we took some awesome photographs that showcased this beautiful location!

Below are the photographs of Mike’s expression as he saw Brittany walk in through the breezy alley in her majestic wedding dress. The first moment they shared together evidently proclaimed “this is love”. It was a special moment that I felt honored to share with them.

As you can see from Mike’s expression, he was fairly anxious to see his bride to be 😛

Majestic trees do tend to help create amazing photographs and I am so glad to have had this tree assisting us. It formed both a shelter for the bride and groom and a great background for the photograph themselves. Accompanied with a shimmering river and a wonderful sunny afternoon, I could not have wished for better conditions.

The Ceremony at the Blue Devil Golf Course, Calgary

After taking a few more photographs with the bridal party, we started heading towards the Blue Devil Gold Club in Calgary to photograph the ceremony itself.

If the location of the formals was fantastic, then the ceremony location was gorgeous. It was situated on a veranda with a grand view of the golf course around it. Mike & Brittany professed their love to a cheering crowd and became one family. They exchanged rings and kissed  at the end of a beautiful and simple ceremony.

Reception with a Pie! (you really wanna read this part!)

Not only is the Blue Devil Golf Course an excellent venue for the ceremony but also a great venue for the reception itself! The reception was held in one of the banquet halls where the Bride & Groom’s family and loved ones gathered. The decor was stylistic and rustic with accents of wood and fabric. You could see how much care and love had been poured into planning the wedding. In particular, there was a tree with Mike and Brittany’s name on the floor that was made out of a light shining through a mold. That, in my opinion, was fantastic.

Instead of choosing to do what everybody does, Brittany and Mike chose to get a pie instead of a cake for their wedding.

Following the cake cutting, the couple danced to a few slow songs followed by the parents joining them on the dancefloor. It was an excellent way to end the evening.

Andrea & Mark’s Engagement Photos at Victoria Park Ice Rink in Edmonton

Andrea & Mark’s Engagement Session at Victoria Park Ice Rink in Edmonton

A cold, snowy but beautiful afternoon in Edmonton!

https://vimeo.com/152016877

After having met Andrea and Mark in a cafe over coffee, I knew this session would be amazing. To say that the session went well would be quite an understatement. It was extremely cold that day and it was snowing heavily. Perfect conditions for some amazing snow photos!

This is their story and I am so glad I got to be a part of it!

After having met at the Ranch, Edmonton in 2013 during a party, Mark and Andrea decided there was something to explore beyond friendship here. They started dating shortly afterwards and did not attend many parties thereafter(not being party people themselves!). Being an adventurous couple, they went rock climbing and camping many times. On November 28th, 2015 Mark decided he wanted this beautiful woman to be a permanent part of his life and proposed to her in front of the Alberta Legislature. Andrea accepted and shortly after their engagement they met me and I got to hear this awesome love story. After hearing that both Mark and Andrea were expert ice skaters (Andrea is a figure skater!!), we decided an ice rink was the place to go! Mark and Andrea brought their Oiler’s Jerseys as well to show their love for their home team! Go Oilers!

Mark and Andrea’s Engagement Photos in Edmonton at the Ice Rink

We started off near the entrance of the Victoria Park in Edmonton and booted up to avoid the cold! That is when I started shooting away and saw the magic happen. Yes, Magic aka Love. Andrea and Mark were two bodies but one soul and their smiles and laughs were evidence of their love for each other! Look at these photos and tell me if it isn’t true?

Squirrel! Squirrel! Squirrel!

Well at one point I saw that the snowfall is extremely heavy around where Mark and Andrea were standing. It got me thinking, “How the hell is that possible?”. I look up and there is a squirrel moving the branches causes excess snowfall! Wow… Divine intervention?

edmonton-wedding-photographers-box-cube-photography-mark-andrea 5

Aren’t Engagement Rings Awesome?

Mark and Andrea love hockey and anything related to it. Therefore, their ring had to be hosted on a crow of a hockey puck as seen below!

edmonton-wedding-photographers-box-cube-photography-mark-andrea 3

Because Umbrella!

Now if there is snowfall, my brain defaults “Pretty pictureeesss!”. Mark and Andrea had a particular fascination with One Photo I took for Shahmeran & Tooba a year ago under a lit umbrella with snowfall happening around them. Well,  we had to do that again!

Yumba Family Photo Shoot at the William Hawerlak Park, Edmonton, Alberta

Yumba Family Photo shoot at the William Hawerlak Park, Edmonton, Alberta

The Fall Evening Sunlight created the perfect backdrop for these family photos!

Sugar and Charlen Yumba decided that they wanted a family photo shoot with the fading fall colours. That is when we decided to have the beautiful scenery of the William Hawerlak Park as the backdrop of these gorgeous photos!

I love seeing families come together and family photos make a perfect excuse to do that! This family session was an absolute pleasure to do since I had a chance to work with three restless but wonderful children! As can be seen from their photos, they were a bundle of energy to say the least!

The evening light and the fall colours came together perfectly to give us the beautiful orange and yellow colours!

Family photoshoots are so much fun! They are always full of energy and happy emotions!

I had a chance to work with the beautiful model Ashley Prasad who was adventurous enough to venture out in the cold with me one a journey to the river valley. Here are some of the result o the shenanigans.

Riti Jain of Hair and Makeup by Riti did an amazing job of the makeup!

The photos below were based on a concept edit since I have been working on some new editing and compositing techniques. The whole shoot was based around the idea of the use of the lantern that you see in the image.

In order to expand my technical skills and to have some fun, I decided it was time to collaborate with some of the other people in the local photography community. This is where I went on to Model Mayhem and got in touch with Katie!

I had no idea what I was getting into….

We planned out the shoot with some vague guidelines and thoughts along the idea of: modelling, posing, Sue Bryce etc. We had a lot of keywords floating around but no clear idea on what we wanted to do really. The location we decide upon was the Terwiliger Dog Park near Rabbit Hills, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. We rolled into the park around 5 PM and started walking towards this “cool” spot which Katie had been to earlier. Let me tell you, it was quite a walk!

Anyway. Following that we started setting up the shoot and in rolled the wind. The wind sent one of the flashes crashing down with the umbrella and I decided I will go “all natural light” for this shoot (personally I LOVVVEEEE using flashes!).

We setup to near this winding path and we got these really cool images! :

Following the path, we went further down the rabbit hole (you get the reference? If not you need to read some books my friend). We found this alcove and then got the following cool iamges:

As you can see, I went a little ham on the editing side of things here but that happens sometimes when you  are distracted….

As I had mentioned earlier, I had no idea what I had gotten myself into… Well what I meant by that was not only did I get a chance to work with this awesome model but I made a friend who shared my love of books and was an awesome gardener as well. She led me further along these tracks and finally to this ravine that touch the river! Oh boy that was perfect timing since we caught the sunset!

Here are the images from that spot!

Much as I would like to say that this process is simple and sweet, it’s not. Its fairly complicated and requires a long amount of time which is why it can take up-to 4 weeks for viewing session to happen (keep in mind each photographer is different and it may take them a different amount of time to complete the edits. A common number that I found in my research was 6-8 weeks for other photographers.)

Michael & Ying’s Wedding in Muttart Conservatory, Edmonton, AB

Michael & Ying’s Wedding Muttart Conservatory, Edmonton, AB

Trusting someone with your wedding photos is a big deal and I treat it as such. Michael & Ying hired me to do their wedding photos for their moderate ceremony in Muttart Conservatory. Being the middle February, it had a certain wintery charm to it that you will see in the photos. The wedding took place on 16th February 2015.

Wedding Slideshow:

None of our weddings would be complete without this signature slideshow that showcases some of the photos from the wedding day:

https://vimeo.com/162242203

The wedding ceremony took place at the Muttart Conservatory. It was a simple yet beautiful ceremony that involved a unique sand colored ceremony. The bride also wore a red wedding gown which is quite different from the conventional white. It looked absolutely gorgeous again the white snowy backdrop of a wintery Edmonton. Michael & Ying met at the Universtiy of Alberta while working together on a project. Their story did not end there and they ended up starting a family together.

We went down to the Legislature building to take the formal photos for the bride and groom. It was a majestic and beautiful backdrop for the photos. The architecture of the provincial building combined with the snowy landscape gave us the opportunity to create some amazing images. At one point we were almost frozen down to our toes but thankfully the bride and groom survived without any form of frostbite 😛
