BEFORE AND AFTER // Quito’s Makeover

February 28, 2010   |   Posted By Renee   |   Fun, Personal, Pets

Our dog, Quito, is a cross between a Toy Poodle and a Havanese  which basically means that he has the ability to grow ridiculously long and thick wavy fur. We usually have him groomed and shaved down every two months, but this year we decided to let it go for three months during the winter season. Needless to say, his hair grows fast and has become a crazy mess. Well my friends, today was his big day at the groomers and we figured we’d better share a few before and after shots of his makeover.

So, without further ado, here he is before:

And here he is after:

For good measure, here’s a split-screen shot:

He looks like a totally different dog, right? It’s amazing what just a haircut can do. I hope you enjoyed this little look into Quito’s life – I’m sure you’ll be seeing much more of him on the blog as time goes by!

JOANNE AND DOUG // Downtown Edmonton Engagement Portraits

February 14, 2010   |   Posted By Renee   |   Engagements

Joanne called us on Thursday, booked us on Friday, and we shot her engagement session with her fiance, Doug on Saturday. Now it’s Sunday, and we’re posting their Valentine’s Day sneak peek! Joanne loved Jen and Craig’s engagement session, and knew she wanted to go for something urban, so we headed downtown for this shoot! We hit up everything from Canada Place and the new Art Gallery of Alberta, to back alleys and stairwells. Enjoy!

So cute!

Doug has some seriously blue eyes!

ASHLEY AND RYAN // St. Albert Engagement Photography

February 12, 2010   |   Posted By Renee   |   Engagements

They say that the couple that plays together, stays together. If this is true, Ashley and Ryan will have a long and happy marriage! At our very first meeting, Ashley told us that they wanted to have their engagement session during the winter at an outdoor rink with a bit of a hockey theme, and we loved the idea! Ashley and Ryan are super athletic (Ryan is a personal trainer, check out his website) so we knew that this would be perfect for them. They are such a relaxed couple, and were total naturals in front of the camera. We can’t wait to shoot their February 2011 wedding!

Ashley has the most amazing eyes!

These two had some awesome moves on the ice, it was so much fun to shoot these images for them.
