Andrea and Marc – Engagement Shoot

Andrea and Marc got the pleasure of me trying to acclimatize myself back to our northern fall weather after leaving 30C and sunny. I believe the day we ventured out was no colder than 10C but I had my toque on and felt cold. Damn you Hawaii!

I met up with Andrea and Marc at local downtown hot spot Dish and then we ventured around the downtown core once again using buildings, lane ways and any other fun things we saw. As a quick note, if anyone reading this needs to use either Andrea or Marc to look out for cars for them so that you do not get ran over go and find a stranger to do the job instead. After we had all the fun that could be had downtown we headed up to Hiawatha Highlands but used a part of the park which I have never been to before. Andrea and Marc’s ceremony will actually be taking place at the Bible Chapel which is now located inside the old ski lodge on the grounds – it is definitely a sweet location for their ceremony and party afterward. Checking the area out and using the surroundings before the big day was a bonus and hopefully we’ll be able to try to use some of them again when their wedding rolls around next year.

Thanks for the killer afternoon guys – looking forward to the wedding next year.

Rachel and Ryan – Engagement Shoot

Last Friday I headed up north just past Pancake Bay with Rachel, Ryan and their dog Gibson to smash up some wild engagement photos. This was officially one year away from their wedding! After receiving multiple bribes from Rachel and playing with her emotions (see the post below this one) we can finally launch their shoot onto the world!

Rachel and Ryan were awesome during the day. We had a minor traumatic experience while driving on our way out but moved on and had a great day out at Ryan’s camp on Hibbard Bay. Rachel and Ryan were up for anything from climbing into old, smashed up, rusted cars without wearing any shoes (they left them on the beach) to jumping into the water for some moody and romantic couple shots. That water was cold, I should know I was in it as well. I was also splashed by it when I took the time out to laugh at them.

Thanks for the great day guys, even if I came back short a pint of blood from all of the mosquito bites.

Quote of the day (as best as I remember it):
Ryan: Can we hurry this up just a bit, I’m getting bit in here.
Curt: Just hold on for a second, it’s all for the shot and I AM GETTING BIT OUT HERE! (I then proceeded to point at the blood running down both of my legs).

Can’t wait for the wedding next August guys! For now enjoy the pics!
