Engagement Photography with Lovely Ann & Paul

Friday, May 21 2010

Last night, I had the pleasure of shooting Lovely Ann & Paul’s engagement session.
We chose an urban theme and used the Edmonton downtown core as the backdrop for their photography session. Being all serious was out the window with these two, especially with Paul. I wish I had a pen and paper handy to write down his material; he should have become a comedian.

Lovely Ann had her makeup trial done before the shoot so she was excited. Her lovely dress and black heels completed her elegant look. Although it was a tad cool, windy and looked like it was going to rain, we took the risk and headed out for the multiple location shoot.

We had a great time. After the last camera ‘click’, we headed to Mikado for some sushi and Sapporo. Thank you for a lovely evening!

Ps I met Lovely Ann in 1997 when we attended Archbishop MacDonald High School. We lost touch over the years, but our paths crossed again two months ago when she came in for a consultation. What a surprise! It was really great to catch up … Looking forward to this wedding!

LOVED the glass reflection. The first person I thought of when I saw it was a famous photoghraper, Jerry Ghionis!

Who said parking lots are not great locations for engagement shoots?

I drove by this building MANY times. I noticed it a couple of days ago when the sun was hitting the gold windows in the middle of the day. Took my breath away and I just had to shoot here.

LOTS of laughter on this session, I had to increase the shutter speed to compensate the "laughter camera shake"

Hey Kinga, this is one of my fave shoots by you! They look like a fun couple and you really brought that out, especially in the series of 3 images of Paul making her laugh!

L-O-V-E the first image! Gorgeous, Dahling (I'm channeling Jerry)!

Amazing photos. I defy anyone to be around Paul for more than 2 minutes without laughing. These two look so happy, captured beautifully on film.
