Slideshow – Fall Portraits at Carburn Park

[youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR35xS0culc&w=640] Carburn Park is one of my favorite places in Calgary to do portrait sessions at any time of year. In the fall the beauty of the park is magnified by the golden yellow leaves and it becomes a perfect backdrop for family portraits. There are so many great places in the park to explore and play, so it's great for kids and adults at the same time. I met David and Kelsey at the park for a family session last weekend and we were able to hit all of my favorite spots in the park. It was a great session and we had lots of fun! This slideshow contains a mix of posed and candid images of the family as we wandered around the park. Everyone had a great time and it was really great to hang out with such a wonderful family in a beautiful place. This is the third portrait session that I've done for the members of this family and I'm honored that they keep coming back. For that I say Thanks! Every session has been very different, but they have all been fun... Here are a few of my favorite images from the day: Just for fun, here are a couple of other images from business portrait sessions I've done with David and Kelsey:

Now Booking Fall Portrait Sessions

It's never too early to book a fall portrait session for your family, especially when fall in Calgary is just around the corner! I know it's only just the beginning of September, but fall can land in Calgary anytime in mid-September and the fall colors may only last until mid-October. Last year we had a glorious fall and the fall colours lasted well into November, but you never know if that's going to happen again this year or not! So far it looks like we are in fact having another late summer in Calgary, but you'd be better off safe than sorry, so book your family fall portrait sitting now! I have only a limited number of weekend sessions available in the next few weeks, so please don't wait to call. If you have a specific time or location that you'd like to meet please feel free to ask. Note that I am a custom portrait photographer and I do everything I can to ensure that every photography session is perfect. One way that I do that is by only booking one portrait session in the morning and one session in the afternoon on available weekend dates. I don't cram sessions in one after the other, and therefore I only have a limited number of fall portrait sessions available this year... Call me now at 403-615-3708 to schedule your Calgary Fall Portrait Photography Session.

Fall Portraits with the Robinson Family

I got to spend a lovely fall day at The Ranche in Fish Creek Park with my friend Eric and his family. I've known Eric for many years, and I was honored when he asked me to do a portrait session with his family. It was really great to meet his wife Erika and their very happy 7 month old son Drake. The best part was that we got to spend a few hours outside enjoying a beautiful day!

Free Desktop Wallpaper for October 2010

This months background wallpaper image comes from Carburn Park in Calgary. The trees in the Calgary area are at the peak of the fall colors right now and they are very beautiful. I’ve been spending lots of time at the park lately doing family and children’s portraits so I’ve had plenty of time to watch in awe as the colors have changed. The ponds at the park have been completely still every morning and I’ve wanted to capture it for awhile. I finally had a chance to create a beautiful landscape image that I hope you'll enjoy as much as I do! Please let me know if there are any other formats or sizes you would like to see. Download To install the images as your desktop background, simply click on the link below depending on the file resolution you would like to use, then right-click on the larger image and select “Set as Desktop Background...”. Enjoy.

Family Portrait Session

I was honored to be invited to create some family and individual portraits for some old friends. They asked me for studio style portraits of their youngest child to match some images they already had of their older child, and also some indoor and outdoor portraits of the entire family. I have a portable studio (including backdrops and lighting gear) that I can set up anywhere, so we turned their living room into a photography studio! I made portraits of both of the children individually and with their parents, and then the whole family together against a black background. The black background is very dramatic images and I really love black and white images created against it. After finishing up inside we went outside to take advantage of a beautiful fall day in Calgary. They live in a prime location adjacent to a very scenic "green" space. I have to put green in quotes because, although the session was completed in early September, the fall colors had already fully arrived. The weather was fantastic and the scenery was perfect to make some lovely fall portraits of the family! I love doing this kind of session where there's lots of variety and the images are all very different. It was a very fun session and it was great hang out with my friends! On a related note... Fast forward only a couple of weeks later to today and the fall colors are already peaking. If you're thinking about getting some fall portraits made this year I would really recommend that you book your session soon. The nice weather is supposed to hold for a little while longer, but the leaves will only stay on the trees [...]
