I am out of town until September 11th.

I loved this handcrafted golf themed boutonniere created by bride Jessica. It was perfect for Jessica and Scott's wedding at Silvertip Golf Resort. Not only was it a perfect fit for their wedding but it looked great all day and through the night even after all the hugs and kisses.

I 've had so many crush worthy shoes to photograph at weddings this summer. I saw this shoe cabinet photo and thought it was an inspiring idea. Why hide your beautiful shoe collection in a closet when you can have it on display like the art it is to enjoy all the time.

Y ou may remember Clea and Ron from their Engagement portrait in Denver. After getting to know them a little bit as a couple on that day I was looking forward to seeing their wedding day come to life. Their chemistry together is obvious to everyone who meets them.

Clea's necklace looked absolutely stunning and glittered in the light.

I love the terrace at The Banff Springs for weddings.

I thought the red stitching on Ron's buttonhole was a nice custom touch.

I have become a huge fan of bowties. Ron's bowtie was made from beautiful fabric and I loved the contrasting fabric to add depth.

Stunning Clea.

A perfect example of why I love long veils.

Lynn, Rebecca and the hardworking team from Lynn Fletcher Weddings did an amazing job of designing and putting together the decor for the Cascade ballroom at The Banff Springs.

The absolutely stunning cake from Cake Creations. The flowers are made out of sugar!

Clea is an opera singer and performed at their wedding as one of her gifts to Ron.

Clea and Ron's wedding at The Banff Springs was a true reflection about what they are passionate about. Clea is an opera singer and as a gift to Ron she sang at their wedding. Ron was raised in Kansas and his mother is named Dorothy so it was perfectly fitting that she sang "Somewhere over the Rainbow" as one of her songs. It was my favourite moment from their day. It was really powerful. Clea's godparents performed their ceremony. Clea and Ron wrote their vows together and created a personal ceremony that included readings of their favourites passages from the Velveteen Rabbit and Shakespeare among others. Each member of their wedding party gave a reading which I had never seen done before. Clea and Ron took a few dance lessons and pulled off a flawless and dramatic first dance. You can see Ron's perfect lift in the photo second from the bottom. Thank you Clea and Ron for trusting me to photograph your wedding.

S ally and Dean had an intimate wedding at Silvertip resort in Canmore. They traveled from New Zealand to get married in the mountains and were rewarded for their travels with what could be quite possibly the best summer wedding day weather we've had.

The flowergirl could not wait to head down the aisle.

Robin did a beautiful job performing the ceremony for Sally and Dean. Sally and Dean loved that Robin left the ceremony on his motorcycle.

The flowergirl was not in the mood for photographs with the rest of the girls. Not to worry her Dad picked her up and comforted her immediately after I took this single photograph.

The Sinclair room at Silvertip is ideal for intimate weddings. The small deck just off to the right of the photograph gives guests mountain views.

Check out his little converse.

Sally and Dean your wedding turned out beautifully. It was lovely to get to see you become husband and wife surrounded by those closest to you. Your families were so hilarious and had me cracking up. Thank you for all the photographs.

I first met Claire and Mike when I photographed their gorgeous winter wedding at The Juniper in Banff. Claire's sister Kate coordinated it with me to give Claire and Mike a pet portrait with me for her wedding gift to them. I thought that was so thoughtful. At the time Claire and Mike had just gotten their labradoodle Charlie and Claire's sister thought it would be nice for them to get photographs of Charlie taken. Claire and Mike have been very fortunate and were lucky enough to get pregnant soon after they started trying. It was fitting that Charlie got to be the messenger of the good news when Claire had a custom shirt made for Charlie that read "I'm going to be a big brother". Claire and Mike shared their happy news with me and decided then that they would use the gift from Kate to have pregnancy portraits taken that would also include Charlie of course. I don't think I've ever met a more well behaved dog then Charlie. I was really amazed at his patience for photographs. Doesn't he have the cutest face?

I loved this Buddha belly shirt that Claire brought along. Claire has an amazingly perfect belly.

Sweet baby converse.
