I love these two, which is good because we get to see a lot of them over the next little while! With an upcoming wedding and after session I am super excited to have them behind our lens a time or two yet ;)

Crazy cute, crazy hot in front of the camera, and oh so much fun. I love the diversity in images from one location to the next, and I just got a peek at their wedding guestbook and it looks even better than they look on screen if that’s even possible. Love it!

See you guys soon! Cheers!

With the wedding fast approaching (barely 2 weeks away now!) we headed to Granville Island to shoot the engagement images that will make up Navrup & Garrick’s guestbook on the wedding day.

I love shooting at Granville Island simply because with so many different buildings and streets we can shoot there over and over again and never get bored! And of course, these two are complete naturals behind the lens making our job forever easy. Can’t wait to see what the wedding day holds!

See you guys oh so soon!

We do a lot of guestbooks, albums, wall pieces, and other products and I really need to be taking photos of these things to share with you! I love seeing the images in print – the screen can just never compare.

Kayla & Robert’s wedding was a bit of a whirlwind, but we were able to meet up with them a few days before the wedding when we both landed in town to capture the engagement images that would be in their guestbook that week. Designing, printing, and assembling a book like this out of a hotel room on a laptop isn’t anywhere near ideal, but I really wanted to pull this together for them, so we made it happen.

Here are just a few mockups of the pages along with a shot we had of the cover for their book! The blank spaces are intended for guest signatures and messages, and all the images were shot around Edmonton. These books are such a great way to show off the engagement photos on the wedding day, and always get such rave reviews. So much better than a boring book with rows of signatures!

You know how sometimes, you were sure you did something but it turns out you actually didn’t? Yeah. The files for the blog were done for these guys, only, somehow they never actually made it to the blog.

Nevertheless, here they are! Tomorrow I’ll be sharing Arli & Nick’s wedding, so I thought it fitting to slip these in here today.

I loved that we got to play with their beetle for their shoot – having a vintage VW ourselves we totally love the car, but it also gives something a bit more personal to play with :)

So long for now, Cuba, this one’s a wrap!

Philip and Megan tied the knot at the end of May at the Royal Hideaway Ensenachos near Santa Clara, Cuba. They laughed, they partied, they got hitched. Their family and friends were a blast, and the wedding will be one to remember!

So many photos… it’s always hard to pick just a few to really sum it all up. This will be a little images heavy, but we couldn’t decide which we liked more!

First things first… touring the resort for the engagement session

The wedding day – the dress. Love this angle!

The ceremony on the beach was breathtaking. Simple, yet so gorgeous. I loved all the white cloth as it blew in the wind

And, of course, in Blue-Olive-Does-Cuba style, the trash the dress! Done early in the morning before everyone boarded a plane to go home, this will be one send off to remember!

CONGRATS, CONGRATS! So, next year, same time, same place you two?!  Talk about the perfect anniversary destination. We can’t wait for you to see the rest of the images, and hope life back in Calgary is treating you well. Props as well to Josh for donning the Blue Olive hat and second shooting in the land of sun and surf.

Cheers!
