52 Weeks Of Weddings

It was a perfect day to photograph Liza and Real’s wedding at the Edmonton Legislature. Even though the Edmonton Legislature is without a doubt, the MOST popular place to photograph weddings in the summer in Edmonton, Liza and Real still wanted their wedding photographs taken at the Legislature. As luck would have it, we walked right up to the main steps, and only had to wait a few minutes for the area to clear enough for Liza and Real.

The groom, Dale, had special moccasins and rings made for his bride, Angie. Dale also wanted photographs taken of Baby Eagle feathers, the rings & moccasins, and some of his special model race cars. I suggested that these photographs be done a few days prior to the wedding, as I knew we would be pressed for time on the wedding day.

Candace and Brad had their professional wedding photographs taken at quiet Emily Murphy Park in Edmonton.

David, the groom, imitates Lisa from the Simpsons while serenading his new bride Jennifer. This photograph was taken on their Edmonton wedding at the Muttart Conservatory.

Fort Edmonton Park offers numerous locations for individual or family portraits, or wedding photography. There are buildings that offer DRY shelter in the event of rain, like we had virtually all day for Jordana and Dave’s wedding. I’ve photographed numerous times at Fort Edmonton Park, and different opportunities for photographs present themselves.

Even though the bride and groom expect perfect weather on their wedding day, we all know that rain stops for no wedding. Rachel and Ryan stop for a passionate kiss in the rain – good thing they have an umbrella!

I enjoy photographing destination weddings because of their cool locations, different cultures, and the fact that the bride & groom seem “less stressed” and manage to get a vacation/honeymoon as well. Matt and Nicole had their destination wedding at Riu Ocho Rios resort in Jamaica.

St Albert has a lot of cool places to photograph your wedding. I like to photograph at the train museum. Some of the many locations to photograph weddings or portraits are the grain elevator, train car, and an old train station.

Melissa and Chris love the outdoors. They wanted a winter wedding and chose Edmonton, instead of a warmer location destination wedding.
