matt + shelby + girls.

August 25, 2015 By Alysha Sladek

Hey all!!

Oh how I just adore the family I’m blogging about today! This is another wonderful family I have had the privilege of photographing over the last few years. I love that each year we try for a new location and style. This year Shelby’s idea of an urban/grunge feel to their shoot was fantastic! We had so much fun scoping out the back alleys of downtown Calgary. Every time we found something interesting we’d hop out of the truck, do some shots, hop back in and drive til we found the next one. I really love the almost gritty feel from their urban family shoot!

Let’s not forget how adorable the girls are!! So much spunk, I just love it! It look a little bit for the girls to warm up to having their photos taken, but once they did they rocked it! So much personality!!

Thanks for the great night and I can’t wait to see what ideas you have for next year!! And yes, they had a little dance party in the back alleys of downtown Calgary. Love it!

Brett, Rocko & Kids

August 18, 2015 By Alysha Sladek

It’s so fun when families come back to me for their family photos. I love being able to capture how each family grows and changes. I’ve done family photos for this darling family for the past 5 years and it’s been so fun to see them go from 1 little one to now 3 kids! I truly can’t believe how much the kids have grown and changed since I first met them.

And, it goes without saying, Brett and Rocko have become even better friends of mine over the time we’ve worked together. It’s hard to not become friends with someone like Brett, she’s smart, funny, friendly and super easy to get along with! Rocko is just as great. I love how gentle he is with his kids, you can tell how much he loves them. Their kids are the sweetest too. There were lots of hugs and “watch me do this” as they would make funny faces or show me something they found. I just love them!

When Brett emailed to book their family photos again, I don’t think I could have scheduled them fast enough! I was so excited for their session. And as for the day of the shoot, I had a blast! I’m pretty sure they had a pretty good time too.

Ok, enough text. Check out this wonderful family’s photo session!

Britt & Dalin | Calgary Engagement Photos

July 3, 2015 By Alysha Sladek

Is it really July already?? I feel like I’ve been waiting AGES for summer to come and now it’s finally here!! Love it!!

What can I say about these two besides the fact that they are a gorgeous couple? Brittany and Dalin are the sweetest, funnest couple and I am over the moon excited for them to get married!! We went to Edworthy Park (you know it’s one of my favorite places!) and did their engagement photos there.  I love the variety of looks we were able to get from the one location. The blossoms were beautiful and I love it down by the river. Calgary really is a beautiful place.

The two of them look so happy together. I can’t wait to photograph their wedding in just a couple weeks. Congrats Britt and Dalin!!

Paige & Kelly | Calgary Wedding Photography

June 23, 2015 By Alysha Sladek

I love being able to photograph weddings here in Calgary. I used to drive to Cardston a lot for weddings, but having a temple here in Calgary has been wonderful! It’s so beautiful there. Paige and Kelly were married on a chilly, rainy day in the Calgary Temple, but I don’t think they could have looked happier. I love being able to be a part of such a special moment in peoples’ lives!! They were both radiating as they walked out of the temple hand in hand.

Paige looked stunning in her lace wedding gown and even my hubby commented on Kelly’s suit – we both loved the color. Paige’s bouquet was beautiful, I loved the touches of berries. She also let her bridesmaids pick their own dresses and didn’t see them until that day. I think they turned out great. One thing about planning a Calgary wedding is you need to be prepared for all kinds of weather! One minute it will be beautiful, the next we could have snow! Thankfully we didn’t get snow, but it was overcast for awhile, and as we got into the formals it started raining and then pouring and didn’t stop! Not ideal, but the whole bridal party was great through it all.

Congrats to you Paige and Kelly, and I wish you all the best!

Rachel & Jacob | Engagement photos

June 17, 2015 By Alysha Sladek

Jacob and Rachel are the sweetest couple and you can tell they are most definitely in love! Jacob lives in Edmonton and Rachel in Calgary, so they were more than happy to meet up in the middle of the week in Red Deer for their engagement photos. We met on a Tuesday which meant that they didn’t have to wait until the weekend to see each other, and you could see how happy they were to be together again.

I’m not familiar with Red Deer at all so we went to Kerry Wood Nature Centre, which is the only place in Red Deer I’ve been besides The Donut Mill (which of course I had to stop at after their session haha). The Kerry Wood Nature Centre is really beautiful and I think it was a great location choice.  And these two looked great. I especially love their 2nd outfit choice.

Thanks for the fun evening Rachel and Jacob! I wish you all the best. And thanks to Jenny Fitzner for lending a hand, it was so much fun having you there!
