The Halabi’s Lebanese Wedding at St. Albert Botanic Park, Edmonton

“It’s always been him
She smiled
Our souls danced just the same.”

-Atticus

Their Story!

Here is a link to the couple’s engagement session:

Andy Getting Ready

Andy got ready at his home. His jacket was personalized to reflect the wedding date under the collar. What a neat idea! The boys matched their suits and went with a classic dark and light blue. Perfectly matched with the bridal party’s theme of purples!

Ashley Getting Ready

Ashley chose a tiara to go with her beautiful wedding dress. While she got ready, we took some photos of the tiny details like her bag that looks like a number plate, the ring, bouquet, and the elegant shoes to complete the look.

THEIR CEREMONY AT ASHLEY’S PARENTS HOME, EDMONTON

In Lebanese traditional weddings, the wedding party first meets at the bride’s home, the groom arrives amid lots of singing and dancing. This is exactly what happened with Ashley and Andy. Andy arrived to lots of cheering to meet and receive his beautiful bride. There were some speeches and phenomenal Lebanese food to go along with the festivities. This was followed by some family photos at the couple’s home and some at a beautiful park nearby!

FAMILY PHOTOS AT THE COUNTRY LODGE

We went to St. Albert Botanic Park for some of the family photos and creative formals with the bride and groom. It was a perfect summer day for a wedding and we couldn’t have asked for better weather.

CREATIVE FORMALS AT ST. ALBERT BOTANIC PARK

We stayed at the St. Alberta Botanic park for the creative formals (photos with the bride, groom, and bridal party). The green backdrop combined with a sunny day made the photos beautiful! The guys blew us away with a superhero pose (blew us away, get it?)

We took some photos with the bridal party followed by some more intimate moments between the bride and groom.

THE RECEPTION AT THE COUNTRY LODGE, EDMONTON

The reception was a party we all want to be part of. The whole family led a traditional dance Dabke, a folk dance performed at Lebanese weddings to mark the joyous occasion! It looked super fun and complex to me but I still had a great time taking photos. Pack comfortable shoes for this one, you’ll be on your feet for a while!
The whole day was a glam affair. You can’t miss the smoke in their reception photos or the stunning venue and Zaffe drummers to make it a party! Keeping with the tradition, they also had fireworks on their special day. This was one party everyone wanted to go to!

It was amazing to work with Ashley & Andy on their wedding day and we are honored to have been a part of their story! You can check out the rest of our work on our blog.

The Di Lullo’s Engagement Session at Whitemud Ravine Edmonton

Cupid’s Arrow

Love’s heralds should be thoughts,
Which ten times faster glide than the sun’s beams
Driving back shadows over low’ring hills.
Therefore do nimble-pinioned doves draw Love,
And therefore hath the wind-swift Cupid wings. ” — William Shakespeare

The Engagement Ring and How They Met

Elianna and Giovanni’s love story beings about two and a half years ago when Cupid shot them with his electronic bow and arrow. OKCupid was the app that brought these two lovebirds together. Later on in January 2017, on a memorable Friday, Giovanni proposed in a romantic and intimate way by adorning the house with twinkling candles and surprising Elianna. He gave her a beautiful infinity braided diamond ring to symbolize his own infinite commitment and everlasting love to her. The Di Lullos are a picture perfect romantic couple that love to take walks together or go ice skating. They also have an adorable Havanese dog named Leo to witness their love unfurl daily.

The Engagement Session at Edmonton’s Whitemud ravine park

The lovely couple’s engagement photography session took place by the river in the ravine of Whitemud park, one of Edmonton’s most scenic locations, especially in the springtime. There is truly no better time to capture love at its finest than during spring. Mother nature looked like she has put on her best and most regal outfit just to celebrate the betrothal of two of her children. And truly once more, there is no better place to celebrate Giovanni’s promise of eternal love to his beloved Elianna than outdoors amidst Rainbow Valley’s joyful foliage and peaceful greenery.

We took a walk on a great sunny day, and took some gorgeous pictures of the bride and groom to be. The huddling tree canopies mimicked the couples own loving hugs, while the sneaking sun rays heralded their bright future of married life. Our lens magically captured Elianna and Giovanni’s blossoming love on the trails of Rainbow Valley park; trails that reminded us much of the trails and journeys of life that willed that these two lovely people meet and fall in love. One of our favorite stills of them is a shot on one of the park’s bridges where a hugging Giovanni and Elianna look like they are about to cross over to the next phase of their life that we wish is full of wedded bliss and happiness.

I am so fortunate to have had the opportunity to photograph Elianna and Giovanni’s engagement photos and we are really looking forward to joining them on their wedding day.

An online gallery of all their images is available for the next 30 days. From the online gallery, you are able to favorite images, order prints and share the gallery with your family and friends.

Tran Family Session // Terwillegar Dog Park Family Photos

The Tran Name Family Session at Terwillegar dog Park // Edmonton Family Photographer

“Climbing trees,
And the warm summer breeze.

Watching bugs on the ground creep,
While everyone’s asleep.

Spicy village chicken curry,
Living each moment without a worry,
And watching ants scurry.” – Sushantika

Two Adorable Dogs and The Perfect Family

The wonder of childhood is definitely one of the most beautiful things I get to witness as part of my job. Children have a way of making people around them smile and relive parts of their childhood. I was lucky enough to photograph the two and half-year-old Rayden as he played with his adorable furry friends (Porsha & Quiggly). If you want to see what joys looks like materialized, it can be seen in the photos! Rayden chased Porsha and Quiggly around the fall colored scenery of Terwillegar Dog Park as I photographed their shenanigans. I also got a chance to photograph some adorable moments between Rayden and Delrae (mom!) as she gave him “airplane rides” and cute kisses! I can’t to photograph this adorable family again 🙂

The Moffett’s Wedding at Muttart Conservatory, Edmonton

A Winter Wonderland Wedding

“Then love knew it was called love.
And when I lifted my eyes to your name,
suddenly your heart showed me my way”
.” 
― Pablo Neruda

Andre Getting Ready at Courtyard by Marriott, Edmonton

We started the wedding day by photographing Andre as he got ready with his son and dad. We photographed some of the details of his wedding day wardrobe followed by some candid photos of Andre and Jamal. I distinctly remember the ring being lost for a while panic sat in. We search high and low, left and right for the ring and ensured that Cathy didn’t find out. We eventually found the ring to everybody’s relief!

Cathy Getting Ready at Courtyard by Marriott, Edmonton

Cathy looked absolutely beautiful for her wedding day and we had the privilege to photograph her. There were some absolutely adorable moments like when Cathy’s mom saw her for the first time in her wedding dress. There was no lack of tears for sure!

Their First Look at the Courtyard by Marriott, Edmonton

Cathy & Andre opted for a first look ceremony where they saw each other before the actual ceremony. Andre waited on the balcony of the Courtyard by Mariott while Cathy walked up to him in her wedding dress. The love between the two was positively visible a mile away when Cathy and Andre saw each other.

The Creative Formals at Muttart Conservatory

Following the first look ceremony, we went out to the Muttart Conservatory where we photographed the couple and their bridal party. The formal photos were definitely chilly given the winter wonderland that Edmonton is during January. We got to take some beautiful night time winter photos. The snow-covered landscape near the Muttart was beautiful to photograph the couple in!

The Moffett’s Ceremony & Reception at Muttart Conservatory

The couple’s ceremony and reception took place at the Muttart Conservatory. For the ceremony, one of the feature pyramids was used. The loved ones of the couple gathered as Andre & Cathy tied the knot. Julie Tkachuk did a wonderful job of the ceremony.

The reception itself was a simple and elegant one with a couple of speeches, a splendid dinner and a first dance followed by a gangam style performance by the groom!

The Wedding Slideshow

Below is the beautiful Wedding Slideshow that came with Andre & Cathy’s wedding package. It was created from a selection of their best photos and their wedding song!

THE ENGAGEMENT RING AND HOW THEY MET

Lauren & Patrick met 5.5 years ago via OkCupid! Their first date is the definition of an amazing first date. It started off with Dinner at Montana’s followed by bowling. They then went for a walk down to White Mud Park (which will become an epic location in their love story eventually!) and concluded the evening with a Star Wars Marathon! These two individuals enjoy music a lot and happen to have the coolest proposal I have ever heard of!

Being the songwriter and singer, Patrick decided to write Lauren a song. One evening the couple went for a drive down to White Mud Park. In the parking lot, Patrick asked Lauren if she could hear a song he had written. Patrick often requests this of Lauren so this was nothing unusual. He put on the song he had recorded on the car’s music player. As the song starts playing, the screen within the car flashes “Hey Lauren, for serious, will you marry me?”. She did not see it coming! She, of course, said yes. If nothing, the proposal itself deserved a yes!

Their ring has a cool story of its own. They went to the different jewelry stores to find the perfect engagement ring but nothing was right. Finally, Lauren’s dad mentioned that her grandpa still had her great-great grandma’s ring. This was the perfect ring and Lauren was the perfect person to inherit that family heirloom. The ring itself has an un-identified stone which is either an extremely precious stone or old whiskey bottle glass!

It was amazing to work with Lauren & Patrick on their wedding day and we can’t be more excited to share their final images with them in the coming weeks! You can check out the rest of our work on our blog!

The Kuzyk’s Engagement Session at Alberta Legislature Building, Edmonton

winter engagement session at alberta legislature building. edmonton engagement photography

A Winter Engagement Session at Alberta legislature building

“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”
― Pablo Neruda

THE ENGAGEMENT RING AND HOW THEY MET

Jasmine & Joel met in high school 7 years ago! They are the definition of high school sweethearts. They started off as friends who often hung out together. One day, Joel found the courage to ask Jasmine out and she said yes! In these years these two adorable humans have come to share a love that is full of laughter and cute moments. I got to see this first hand!

Joel proposed to Jasmine on December 14th last year. This was Christmas come early for the adorable couple as they got engaged and made the announcement to their families! Joel and Jasmine sat on a bench together at the legislature building under the beautiful Christmas lights. This is when Joel asked Jasmine if she wanted to become his partner in crime for life! She said yes with happy tears in her eyes. This is why we choose the Legislature building as the location for their engagement session.

The Engagement Session at the Alberta Legislature Building

The Alberta Legislature Building is an iconic landmark that is known to every Edmontonian. During the summers it is often a location for families to hang out and enjoy the fountains. During the winter, it becomes a beautiful magical place that is decorated with tree lights and snow. The pretty lights give it the perfect Christmas spirit and that is exactly when and where Jasmine and Joel got engaged.

I photographed the couple on the grounds of the legislature building. It happened to be the only day we had ice rain so the whole area was extremely slippery! Thankfully no one fell but there were definitely some “oh shit” moments. This was Jasmine & Joel’s first experience with a professional photographer and I am so glad to have been a part of their engagement session. Following the engagement session they were kind enough to leave me a review:

“We had an amazing experience with box cube photography. Sharyar made our first experience with a professional enjoyable and comfortable. The viewing session was organized and well prepared with many examples.” – Jasmine & Joel

I am so fortunate to have had the opportunity to photograph Jasmine & Joel’s engagement session at the Alberta Legislature Building and I am really looking forward to joining them on their wedding day.

The Mithcell’s Wedding at Edmonton’s All Saints Anglican Cathedral

A Majestic Wedding at the All Saints Anglican Cathedral!

Brianna & Kris got married on a perfect fall day in Edmonton! Their ceremony was held at the majestic All Saints Anglican Cathedral and their reception at the Queen Alexandra Community League, Edmonton.

Their Story

Kris & His Groomsmen Getting Ready

We started the wedding day off with photographing Kris as he got ready for the ceremony. He was accompanied by his groomsmen and parents! At one point, Kris played video games with his groomsmen and that was awesome to photograph!

Brianna & Her Bridesmaids Getting Ready

We then joined Brianna as she got ready for the ceremony as well. We photographed some of the details including the dress, the shoes, and the jewelry! Brianna looked absolutely beautiful in her wedding dress. We got to witness and photograph an absolutely emotional moment between Brianna her daughter. Check out the images below to see how the beautiful moments unfolded.

Their Ceremony at the All Saints Anglican Cathedral

The All Saints Anglican Cathedral is an absolutely gorgeous church where Brianna & Kris tied the knot. It was first made in 1896 but was destroyed by a fire in 1919. It was reconstructed in 1956 and has since been maintained in its current state! It was a religious Christian ceremony where Kris & Brianna tied the knot. The ceremony was made even more amazing by readings from the Bible by some of the family members of the couple.

The Family Photos at the Alberta Legislature Building, Edmonton

Following their ceremony, we photographed the Mitchells and their families at the Legislature Building in downtown Edmonton. It was a fantastic location for family photos as we had a fantastic backdrop of the green lawns and the majestic fountains of the legislature building.

The Creative Formals at

After the family photos, we photographed the couple and their bridal party for their creative formals. This is by far my favorite part of the day as it allows me to create some amazing imagery for the couple by using my creativity and a little bit of humor. We took some goofy portraits of the couple and their bridal party once it started raining. We pulled out some transparent umbrellas and did things Mary Poppins Style!

We concluded this part of the day with some romantic portraits of Brianna and Kris around the ground of the legislature building.

The Mithcell’s Reception at Queen Alexandra Community League

The couple’s reception was held at the Queen Alexandra Community League Centre. Brianna and Kris had completely changed how the venue looked by handpicking all the decorations. Their venue looked very rustic and beautiful in line with the wedding theme! We started by photographing some of the details at the venue and started preparing their same day slideshow while dinner proceeded. Here is a link to their same-day slideshow:

First Dance!

After the speeches, the Mitchell’s got the party going with their first dance. Their children joined them for the first dances and it was so cute to photograph that!

Cutting the beautiful cake

Following the first dance, the couple cut their cute cake! Given Brianna and Kris’s affinity for Lego, they had the perfect cake that was adorned by Lego figures that represented the couple! It was absolutely brilliant and equally adorable!

The Wedding Slideshow

Above is the beautiful Wedding Slideshow that came with Bride & Groom’s wedding package. It was created from a selection of their best photos.

The Robinson’s Wedding at Edmonton’s Blue Meadows Hall

Gorgeous Winter Wedding!

Summer weddings are overrated. Winter weddings are the way to go! All the gorgeous snow and beautiful landscapes that accompany winter made this wedding the perfect winter wedding! Check out Vanessa & Andrew’s wedding below to see why you should have a winter wedding as well!

Their Story!

Vanessa & Drew Getting Ready

We started the beautiful day off with photographing the bride and groom as they got ready! Drew was accompanied by his dad and his groomsmen while Vanessa got ready with her bridesmaids and Drew’s mom. We got a chance to photograph a sweet moment where Drew’s mom kissed and hugged Vanessa as she was getting ready for the ceremony. We photographed little details for the bride and groom like the jewelry, the accessories, the shoes, the dress and a special pendant that held Vanessa’s mom’s photo.

Their Ceremony at Trinity Lutheran Church, Edmonton

Do you want to be married in a majestic church? Then this is the location for you! It has gorgeous stained galls windows and pews made of old wood! It was the perfect location for Vanessa & Andrew to say their vows and tie the knot! The ceremony was conducted by Pastor Ingrid Dorschel-kramer and was done in a wonderful and simple manner. It was sealed with an adorable kiss and an exit dance by the couple!

The Family Photos at Trinity Lutheran Church

The church had such a perfect lobby that we couldn’t help but photograph the couple’s family in the lobby! It was perfect with the afternoon sun streaming in through the tall glass windows!

The Creative Formals at St. Albert Grain Elevator Park, El Cortez & Downtown Edmonton

We went to three different locations with Vanessa & Andrew to create some cool and altogether different creative formals for the couple and the bridal party. Each of those locations gave us a unique opportunity to create some very different portraits. El Cortez was dark and dungeony meanwhile the Grain Elevator was very vintage and cool!

The Robinson’s Reception at Blue Meadows Hall, Edmonton

Vanessa & Andrew surprised their guests by bringing back the Harlem shake for their wedding! If you don’t know what I am talking about, just google Harlem shake! Their reception was at the Blue Meadows Hall in Edmonton. They had a really cool blue led backdrop that glowed behind their head table!

Cutting the beautiful cake

Nicole’s Cake did such a fantastic job of the cake for the couple! It looked absolutely gorgeous and tasted equally delicious!

First Dance!

The Robinsons began the festivities for the evening by starting their first dance to let’s Stay Together by Al Green. A true classic! They were then joined by Drew’s mother and Vanessa’s father for the mother-son and father-daughter dances.

The Mayotte’s Wedding at The Country Lodge, Edmonton

The Perfect Fall Wedding at the Country Lodge

Nicole & Brodie’s wedding was the perfect fall wedding once could have asked for. It was filled with golden colors and glorious autumn light. Leading up to their wedding, the Edmonton weather had been horrible. It was filled with rains and unpleasantly cold temperatures. Lo and behold, the wedding day arrives and the sky is miraculously clear and we get pleasantly warm weather. It was a perfect day to get married!

Their Story!

Brodie Getting Ready and Playing Settlers!

We started the Mayotte’s wedding day at the couple’s house where Brodie was getting ready. His groomsmen had joined him for the preparations and they all looked very dapper even before they put on their wedding attire. We photographed some of the details including the cufflinks, the Steve Madden shoes, the rings and his classy white tie. At one point, the groom and groomsmen got into a game of settlers and I made sure we got some goofy photos of that! We finished this part of the day with some classic posed black and white photos of the groom and his groomsmen!

Nicole & Her Cool Group of Bridesmaids

This section started with us photographing a gorgeous bottle of champagne that the bride and her bridesmaids were enjoying when we got to their location. Following that, we photographed the details including Nicole’s beautiful wedding dress, the jewelry she wore, her shoes and her beautiful teal scarf. The ladies also wore matching bridesmaids gowns that looked fantastic together! We finally took some photos as Nicole put on her dress and got ready for the ceremony!

Their Ceremony at The Country Lodge, Edmonton

The country lodge is such an amazing venue. It is this tiny little cabin on the north side of Edmonton that has gorgeous grounds all around it. I have had the pleasure of photographing multiple weddings there and each one turned out amazing! Nicole and Brodie’s ceremony was held on the ground of the Country Lodge and to say it was beautiful would be an understatement. The ceremony was conducted by Julie Tkachuk who happens to be one of our favorite officiants and a preferred vendor as well!

The couple made their exit to bubbles being blown by their loved ones all around them. It was gorgeous!!!

We understand the importance of family and always strive to get family photos for our clients on their wedding day. For Nicole & Brodie, we used the fall foliage backdrop of the grounds and took some beautiful family photos after their ceremony. We are 100% certain the families will cherish these memories years down the road.

The Creative Formals at Red Willow Park, St. Albert

The creative formals are by far our favorite part of the day. Here we get to create some epic portraits for our clients by using various posing and photography techniques. During our scheduling meeting, Nicole and Brodie had asked me for a location that we could do their family formals at. I suggested the Red Willow Park as a great location since it was close to their wedding venue and had the perfect fall colors. The couple went ahead and found a train trestle which worked out so well for some of the portraits!

We took some creative portraits of the couple as well as some hilarious group photos with the rest of the bridal party! We know the bridal party members are an important part of the wedding day so we photograph them and give them some of the limelight! At one point, two of the groomsmen kissed while the couple was kissing for a photo. That photo might just be my very favorite photo of this year!

The Mayotte’s Reception at The Country Lodge

Nicole and Brodie entered to thunderous applause from their guests! The reception started right away with dinner of course! Their reception was really cool because they had a

The Dinner provided by the Country Lodge

Decoration by Brodie & Nicole!

Given their attention to details and extraordinary design ability, Nicole & Brodie selected and even made some fo the decor for the reception. The results turned out absolutely gorgeous!

Amazing Cupcakes by Sammy

Instead of having the usual wedding cake, the couple chose to go with cupcakes instead. The cupcakes were made by Sammy who is a friend of the couple. She did an excellent job of the cupcakes. I can attest to that as I had three myself!

T-Rex at a Wedding

Now if I tell you I saw a dinosaur at a wedding, would you believe me? No, well go look at the pictures below because this couple had a t-rex at their wedding #weddinggoalsformyownwedding.

First Dance!

Nicole and Brodie started the party with their cute first dance together. They were then joined by their parents for the father daughter and mother son dances. We got a chance to photograph everyone enjoying themselves on the dance floor to the beat of the DJ.

The Mayotte’s Wedding Day Slideshow

Above is the beautiful Wedding Slideshow that came with BRIDE & GROOM’s wedding package. It was created from a selection of their best photos.
