Hi everyone! Yesterday I had an amazing opportunity to be the second photographer for Sergei Belski http://www.sergeibelski.com/blog/ at Lindsey and Jeremy's wedding which took place in Airdrie. Thanks, Sergei, for letting me come with you! You're amazing! And what a sweet and loving couple! They've known each other forever and have dated for the past 3 years. You should have just seen the way Jeremy looked at Lindsey, my heart melted! What a joy to see people so much in love! I'm so grateful that they let me be part of their special day, I truly enjoyed every moment of it (yeah yeah even the clingy bugs in the field! :):)...
Here's a card and a note that Lindsey gave to Jeremy before the wedding: Lindsey's surprise gift to Jeremy:

ahhhh...what a precious little thing! and already partying! :)) Jeremy surprised everyone by having the first dance right from the start and I have to tell you they looked AH-MAZING! Jeremy's sister's tears of happiness: Cameras and camcoders everywhere, you can't miss any detail of this wonderful day!
I can't contain my happiness after I picked up a copy of the YOGA MAGAZINE this afternoon with my photo in it in an ad for Chic Bamboo Wear !!! How exciting is that??? It's HUGE for me!! I'm thrilled beyond belief! Hope it's not the last publication. I want to thank everyone who believes in me! You rock, my friends!
We've been meaning to take a trip to BC for a long time so I finally took some time off work, we packed up our bags (most important things first - Tim's toys and the cameras :)) and were on our way to the Echanted Forest. We booked the Three Valley Gap hotel which is about 18 km away from the Enchanted Forest (nice hotel, btw, highly recommend if you're travelling that way....though they don't have a microwave). The location is beautiful!! So worth almost a 6-hour drive! We did make a few stops so Tim could ride his scooter and stop asking: "Are we there yet? Are we there yet?" :)...haha..:) We totally forgot about the time difference and were an hour early for the check-in but they were kind enough to let us into our room right away and didn't make us wait.
First we went to see the Crazy Creek. As we were walking across the suspension bridge I could just absorb all the moisture coming from the waterfall (those of you who are from Calgary know what I'm talking about! :)), it's gorgeous there! I mean trees are blooming and the flowers are blossoming, it's summer there already! wow. We didn't have time to check out the Enchanted Forest the same day as they were closing at 6 pm and one hour wouldn't be enough to see everything so we decided to come back the next morning. I did buy a pair of beautiful wooden earrings at the gift shop though, I don't care it takes me 2 minutes to put them on. Each. They're just really pretty and unique.:) I wish we had more time to spend in BC, I'd go back in a heartbeat. Anyone with me?? :)
Honestly I was not that afraid to walk on the glass floor of the Calgary Tower than climbing this tree house. Go figure!
Being originally from Russia I came to live in Calgary with my family in the hot summer of 2005. I love my family, reading, watching movies, translating documents (don't laugh! I know I'm weird), smell of freshly cut grass, playing Bejeweled on Facebook and.... - PHOTOGRAPHY! :)) I have been blessed with so many wonderful couples and families whose relationships and emotions I captured with my camera! I specialize in wedding photography but I love photographing families and kids a lot, too! My family is my GREATEST support and I will be thankful to them eternally! Have a seat, grab some popcorn and look through my blog. :) have fun!
