Doyle’s Engagement Session at Victoria Park, Edmonton // Edmonton Engagement Photographers
Nicolle & Stephen | Their Story <3
Nicolle & Stephen are cute. No, that is an understatement. They are a very cute couple. They are extremely photogenic and have the best candid expressions even with a huge camera staring at them. I had the privilege of photographing this couple’s engagement session! I will also be photographing their wedding in September and I am so excited about that! Here are some photos from their engagement session in our signature engagement slideshow:

Location: Victoria Park
Our choice of location was based on the couple’s preference for nature. Summer in Edmonton is an amazing time for photos and almost any location can serve well! Victoria park was a great location for photos due to the green trees, fences and beautiful pathway. All of these elements show up in our photos for the couple below.
It was a very warm and beautiful day. It was sunny with the perfect amount of wind and obscene number of mosquitoes.
Here are some of the photos of the couple during the rest of the engagement session:

This includes recommending vendors that the clients may be in need of. We often do short interviews with those vendors to ensure our clients know who they might be dealing with.
Riti Jain happens to be one of the hair and makeup artist in Edmonton we often work with. She is often a part of our team when we do collaborative shoots as well for engagement hair and makeup. Did we mention those come complimentary with our wedding packages?
Here is a small snippet of the behind the scenes video of a collaboration we recently worked on together (Model: Patricia Stables)! As you can see she is quite the magician with makeup and hair!

How did you get started?
I started when I was going through a phase of life. I wanted to get back to my artistic roots. I started exploring some part-time makeup courses and found one that I really liked. At that time I just wanted to do this as a hobby but one of my classmates offered me to do a collaborative photo shoot with her. I did makeup and hair for a model which led me to realize that I have potential to be a freelance makeup and hair artist.
Tell me about your favorite wedding last season.
I had a chance to do makeup for a South Indian wedding where they had three different ceremonies within a day. In the morning, it was a western church ceremony. The afternoon consisted of a traditional Hindu wedding. The evening consisted of a mix of Indo-western reception. I enjoyed that since the bride was extremely easygoing and we had a friendly dynamic. Spending the entire day with the bride was a new experience. We joked around and the family treated me like I was on of theirs. This was refreshing.
How far out should a bride pay a deposit to secure your services for her wedding day?
The moment a bride books her venue and photographer, she should book the hair and makeup artist around the same time. This is usually at least 6 months before the wedding date. Although there are opening after those dates as well but doing so this much in advance ensures your date isn’t already booked.
What is included when a couple books your services for their wedding?
I offer separate trial and wedding packages. I offer a free consultation that involves going through the various idea and thoughts that the clients have for hair and makeup. This also involves skin analysis. This consultation also allows me to meet my clients and understand their needs thus ensuring a personalized service.
How do you help couples customize their wedding?
I am very flexible in terms of the look that my clients want to achieve. My clientele is very diverse and includes people from all races and cultural backgrounds. This give me the ability to adapt looks to different clients and ensure that you look your best on the wedding day.
What is one interesting fact about your services?
The diversity in my portfolio and my ability to adapt to various different looks.
What do you have planned for the future?
I plan on opening my own studio and supervise my own team of like-minded makeup and hair artists.
How many people can you accommodate? (i.e bridal party makeup)
Up-to 8 people easily. I often work with another artist who assists me for bigger bridal parties.
What makes your services unique?
I am a very good listener and I strive to provide amazing client service.
How long has this business been a part of the community?
3 years
Who would be the best person to contact if a couple wants to book your services?

This slideshow is made from the images taken during the ceremony and formals and presented on the day of the Wedding to the couple during the reception. It allows the beautiful couple, family and friends to enjoy some of the best photographs in a slideshow form which they can share with their loved ones.

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.
