Hi all!! Wow.. This is our first post of 2010. A little late, but happy new year!!!

Deb and I were putting together some of our marketing materials for 2010 and had to take some photos of ourselves. We got out our big ringlight and took a bunch of photos… well… here, have a look:

Have you thought about having a photobooth? They are a LOT of fun! We love doing photobooths. They’re such a fantastic way to get photos with your guests. Ask us about how you can have a photobooth at your event

A few weeks back I was very fortunate to help out Kristel Wyman with Ben & Esther’s wedding. Upon meeting them I instantly felt like family because they are so warm-hearted and caring (and later on Esther and I realized that we went to the same high school together too. Small world!). We all had a wonderful time doing portraits downtown and then out to Langley for their beautiful ceremony and reception. Here are a few of my favourite shots

Esther is so beautiful. Ben: you are a very lucky man.

And Ben isn’t too bad either This is very GQ!

And when you put them together: WOW!

I loved their ceremony! They walked up the aisle together with their son behind them in a little red wagon (complete with a sign that said “Mommy and Daddy are getting married”!). Their eye-contact with each other during the ceremony was constant and honest. Everyone that was there that day radiated such a sincere warmth which really told us something about Ben & Esther: not only are they truly and deeply in love with each other, but they have a fantastic group of family and friends.

Later in the evening Kristel and I set up a photobooth for them and their guests to enjoy, and let me tell you, we had a blast! With a handful of random props (funny glasses, bunny ears, masquerade masks and even a garden gnome!) you may never know what people will do, but you can almost guarantee that they wont forget it! There were sooooo many hilarious photos from their photobooth to choose from, so I decided to just put up my absolute favourite one. Here is Esther’s family photo!

Huge thank yous go out to Kristel, and also to Ben & Esther! I had a fabulous time!

You may remember Allison from a few months ago… We did an engagement session with her and Cam, her Fiance. We’ll be shooting her wedding in September. Anyway, We brought them all into the Ironworks Studio to shoot a portrait session. Let me tell you, it was a RIDICULOUS amount of fun. I thought I would provide a quick sneak peek of the day’s events.

We will be posting more images from this session very shortly. Keep a look out for them
