Hotel Le Germain Wedding
I'm trying to get caught up and share some of my recent work. This is from a recent wedding at the beautiful Hotel Le Germain. Such a gorgeous venue perfect for this beautiful day :)

How do I make a blog post out of one day? This is always my dilemma when trying to show you the story of a wedding day. I could just show you the portraits. Or I could just show you the reception...or just the first look(in this case...I included most of the series anyways--it was just too cute). I just can never decide. And, I want to save some of the moments for just the bride. So, she can enjoy the day she receives her gallery. I can tell you this--
Yes, that's twerking.
Her dress is from J Crew. Her jewellry is from Stella and Dot(wowzers...so awesome).
Her hair piece is from Bhldn and was a shower gift from her sisters who knew it would be perfect. They were so right.
The flowers were done by The Fresh Vase in Red Deer. And the wedding was at The Heritage Ranch(also in Red Deer).
I die for her hair--it's unreal. I am not sure who the team is behind her hair and make up, but if they message me, I will gladly link to them. They did an amazing job.
And, I had such a wonderful time. This couple's families are so incredible. While I was photographing the shoe game, the bride's grandma cuddled with me. I kid you not. She must have known my soft spot for Grandma's.
I also know that it was supposed to rain the entire day. That fact caused me(and a few other people a wee bit of stress), but the moment the bride got out of the car for their first look, the rain stopped. And, it didn't start again until I was done for the day.
And, lastly, the first look--this was just so wonderful to witness. The bride physically relaxed when she saw him. It was like 'thank god we are finally together'...and, now, they are together forever ;)
Enjoy!

Calgary Blooms
The blossoms were really late this year, but man were they pretty. They are such a reminder to get outside and see how beautiful the world can be...and, as a friend of mine said, especially because their beauty is so fleeting. So excited to have had a couple of sessions in the blossoms this year. Here is one of them :) Can't wait for their wedding this fall.
Georgia sat beside me while I was editing these. She made me edit one and put it in...can you guess which one?
