October 29th, 2022


Meet Samantha and Michael! Two very special clients and friends! Samantha and Michael first came to me for a fall session when I was just starting out in photography. Samantha was so sweet and as soon as her session ended she said she would be running back the second that Michael proposed! When Samantha sent me a message about her recent engagement one year later I just about cried!


Samantha's only request was to get photos before the first snow. Because Alberta weather can be so unpredictable, we squeezed in a beautiful sunrise session on October 29th, just days later! Everything about the morning was absolute perfection, the sunrise was STUNNING, it wasn't too cold, and we even got the perfect amount of wind to make for some fun photos!


Just 6 days later, it was -30 degrees and there as about 1 foot of snow on the ground. Can you believe it?! I am so glad we had the opportunity to make Samantha's engagement photo dreams come true in these beautiful Sand Dunes located in Edmonton, AB.


Congratulations Samantha and Michael! Cheers to forever!
