Kesley was in Corwin’s and Amanda’s bridal party last summer, and when she contacted me to photograph her special day, I was so excited!! Right from the beginning, I knew we would be such a great fit! I get so excited when I get to work with my bride’s friends because they are always such delightful people to be around!!
Calvin and Kelsey crossed paths many times throughout their lives including her job in gymnastics, a few trips to the hospital, and then again through Facebook! At one point in Calvin’s life, he was taking many visits to the hospital. It was then he spoke to her a few times. The conversations they shared felt very natural. One day she received a Facebook friend request from Calvin. When she clicked on his profile, she noticed that she taught Calvin’s daughter gymnastics! It was the sweetest!
Shortly after Corwin’s and Amanda’s wedding day, Calvin and Kelsey visited one of the Okanagan vineyards, their favorite places to be! When Kelsey asked a lady to take a random photo of the two of them at the vineyard, Calvin knew this would be the perfect moment to propose to her. As the lady took their pictures, Calvin pulled out the ring from his pocket, nelt down on one knee, asking her to marry him. Kelsey of course said “yes!”, as her face was overflowing with tears. The lady then asked to take a photo of her ring, and more tears were running down her face. It was a very exciting moment!
Calvin’s and Kelsey’s engagement session was full of soft, golden fall colors! I got to photograph their session in a location I never shot before. Combined with their joyful spirits, all I can say is that I’m obsessed with the results! They were always smiling, kept each other warm and were SO in love. It was a little chilly for their shoot, but these two enjoyed their session to the fullest!
Calvin and Kelsey, I truly enjoyed getting to capture this special season in your life. You two are so perfect for each other, and it truly shows in your photos! Photographing your engagement portraits is making me SO excited for your Edmonton Wedding in May!! Enjoy some of my favorites!
