Ashley and Gerry

Ashley and Gerry got married in her parent's amazing back yard in Swift Current on August 29th. They were a lot of fun to work with; super relaxed and enjoying their big day. Here are a few of my favorites from their wedding. Hope you enjoy them!

Underneath the sun.

Just some photos from some of the shoots I've had throughout the summer and fall. I can officially consider myself caught up now! w00t.


Grad 2009

Caleb and Brad were the only guys I shot this year for Grad, but they were both very cool. It's nice shooting a couple friends at the same time because they feed off of each other for energy and smiles. :-)

To the left is Brad. This was at the CP Rail buildings on North Railway in Swift. As it turns out, Brad's father works for CPR and kept a close eye on me to make sure I didn't get schmucked.

Here is the aforementioned father.

Here I was just testing out the lighting for the next set of pictures. Turned out to be one of my favorite shots out of the whole shoot.

Here's Caleb. He's a fun guy with a great sense of humor. I did a photo shoot for his family (as you'll see down the page, and he always kept everyone smiling.

With these shots in Elmwood Park, I finally had a chance to use my off-camera flash and umbrella; overall, I'm pretty happy with the results.

Family Photos 2009

I did a couple sets of family photos, one with the Lenz family on an old farm, and one with the Adams at their beautiful creek-side home in Swift Current. These are some of my favorites.

This old farm had lots of character, perfect for pictures. One cool thing that happened when Cynthia took me out to scout this location was that her son found a news paper in one of the buildings, and on the front page was an article about mayor Robert Dahl.

Some kids survive by being cute. I think these kids thrive on it!

These guys have a beautiful character home right overlooking a wide open area over the creek. I think this place would be sucha  cool place to grow up because there are so many little paths and areas and whatnot to play in. All these photos were taken in various places of their property.

Weddings 2009

I had the great opportunity to shoot a couple weddings with Corla Rokochy from Lasting Impressions Photography as a second shooter. As it turns out, one of them was for a cousin of mine I hadn't seen in forever, so that was pretty sweet. His name is Dustin and he's the big guy just below! :-)

This poor little girl was just worn out.

This beautiful couple was braving some biting cold winds for pictures.

Whew! Thats it for now. I do have one more wedding to post, but I want to make sure the bride can see the photos before everyone else does!

What Brides will go through for a photo.

Corla Rokochy, a very talented and energetic photographer in town here, was nice enough to ask me to come along to a wedding recently, and it was really damn cold and windy. Don't let the veil fool you - it actually was windy!

Liz here didn't seem to notice much though! :-)

More of Brad & Jess

Well, I'm getting close to being finished the pictures for Brad and Jess so I figured I'd post some of my favorites. I'm having almost as much fun going through them as it was to shoot them in the first place! :-)

The ceremony was beautiful... very touching, full of tears of happiness. I thought this was a cute moment...

They had to do a lot of snuggling that day! They don't seem to mind though. :-)

This shot was for the Maid of Honor, Mare, who Insisted that there be a shot including Jess' shoes.

The reception was at the Logpile Lodge including a wonderful meal, lots of laughs, and heartfelt speeches by the Best Man, Brett, and the Maid of Honor, Mare.

Man! I wish I could post them all. It was such a great wedding I want to tell the whole story. Anyway -enjoy!
