Semblance Of A Sonnet

So since I've been posting up some of my favorite photographers fine art work over the last year. I thought I'd share a fine art project that I'm working on right now. Totally different from the normal work you see me do, but I really love it and it's been a lot of fun to work on. (stressful at times... but a lot of fun)

Let me know what you think, I'm getting the images bound into a little book and I'll post up some pics of it when I get it made.

Sneak Peak - Elizabeth

Elizabeth has been interning with us for that last few semesters from the U of A and we've been so excited to have her! (If we've photographed your wedding in the last few months you might have met her...) And now she's graduating with her photo degree from U of A! So I did a little portrait session for her, for her graduation photos. Here's just a little sneak peak of whats to come in the next few weeks... :)

I'm Back!!!

Oh my gosh this last week was a whirlwind! I had the amazing opportunity to attend the largest photography convention in the world last week in Vegas. I heard some amazing photographers speak and got some more super awesome ideas for my business and met some amazing people. AND...... I GOT TO GO TO MY FAVORITE STORE EVER!!!! H&M!

Yes, I am in love with H&M. Our love story first began when I lived in europe and had one just around the corner from where we lived. I quickly became addicted to their fun fashion forward clothing. So I every time I'm in Vegas I always have to hit up their store and pick up a few things. And this time I found this AWESOME daisy dukeish picnic shirt. It's so cute! So after I got back I had Joey do a little shoot for me in my new shirt. He did such a good job! I'm so proud of my little hubby, he's growing into such an amazing photographer!

Stay tuned this week for post overload, I've got a bunch of things up my sleeve I'll be throwing up on the blog this week!

Sabrina + Billy's Wedding Promo!

I meant to post this up along with Sabrina and Billy's wedding photos, but totally forgot in my crazy chaos of a life. But I wanted to get it up so everyone could see! The Reel McCoy Productions came along with us on this one and did all the video for the day capturing all the little details Sabrina worked so hard on. Here is the little promo video they put together for her:

Angela + Jono

Christmas is probably my favorite Holiday, I LOVE Christmas. My husband can tell you that I go way overboard every year, I love the lights and the sparkle and most of all I love that one of my favorite colors is EVERYWHERE... RED! Yes I know I also love pink, but red and I go way back... like way back... I even have a fire engine red electric guitar. So you can imagine my excitement when I found out that Angela and Jono where going to have a holiday themed wedding with red as their main color! I was so excited, and knew Angela was going to make everything just gorgeous I couldn't wait for their wedding day. I wasn't a bit disappointed when it arrived. Check it out!

I loved her earrings!



Oh and did I mention that a TV crew filmed their wedding as a demo for a new reality TV show!? Yeah we might all be TV stars! I'll keep you posted and let you know if it ever airs here in the states (they were from Canada)


Angela did her own make-up and she did an amazing job!

The girls all looked beautiful...


Angela is so pretty... doesn't she remind you of Catherine Zeta Jones a bit?



Her bouquet was gorgeous and I'm almost positive she made it herself, isn't she talented?



Jono spent the better part of the morning trying to figure out his bow tie... he was getting a wee bit frustrated with it...


But he finally got it, and the guys looked awesome and very James Bond... ooohhh I love men in Tuxes!



Then it was time for the ceremony. Have I mentioned that these two have been dating since Jr. High?


I love this...



LOL, this one makes me smile...


After the ceremony, the sun decided that it was going to call it quits for the day so we had to get a little creative with our lighting, and I'm super stoked about the results!



How cute is this!?



Ummm.... are you kidding me!? These two are just off the hook... they make me want to go throw away my mirrors...




They had their reception at the Z Mansion and decked it out! Check out their super cute cake


Each table had a silver tree with ornaments on it, at the end of the night each guest got to take one home as a present... how fun is that!?

First dance...


PARTY TIME!!! I could do a whole post just with fun party pics from this wedding, it was SOOO much fun. Perhaps I'll post up more later...


But for now I think I have overloaded you with enough photos for one post!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY Angela and Jono! Thank you so much for letting us be your photographers!

Sedona Hitched & Haute Extravaganza

This past weekend I organized a huge group photo shoot for photographers in Arizona to get together, have fun and take some really awesome photos in some pretty rad locations. It was so fun and we had such a great turn out, so many photographers came to the shoot and I got to meet a ton of people. It was also fun because a bunch of my past brides came out to model for us and I got to see them all again and take their photos one more time. We ended up having about 11 models show up, so we broke down into groups and did 30 min mini sessions with each model (or tried to, I only got around to 6 of the models since I was running around trying to be in charge, organize stuff and shoot at the same time. That and Joey kept wandering off with my camera bag so every time I ran out of memory on a card I had to go and track him down! But it was a really fun day. Here are just a few of the fun shots I did have time to grab!

It actually turned out to be a bit of a family affair because my cousin's came to model the fab Micah and Susie (who looks just like Hayden Panettiere)








Jenna + Cody also came out to model...




And they brought their friends Nick + Mary Beth who were super cute!
















Angela + Jono also made it out whose fab wedding should land on the blog here next week, you don't want to miss it!




Can you tell Angela has done some modeling before?




This photo makes me want to snuggle... (they were such troopers they are sitting in a thorn bush so I could grab this photo... I laid a jacket down though so it wasn't painful lol)


This might be my all time fav shot from the whole day... Jenna reminds me a bit of Joan of Arc in this photo, it's so epic looking...


Oh and my Sis-in-law Amy showed up to model as well!


Here's my cousin Micah and his wife Susie again, doesn't this look totally like a fashion ad? They are just to fabulous, they make me jealous!


And of course... Mrs. July Donovan came out in her AMAZING wedding gown! And in the end I think she was the last model standing. When all others had gotten cold and tired and called it a day she modeled on! lol I <3 July...










Ahhh so sorry for photo overload.... I had so much fun and just couldn't wait another moment to share!
