Every year I am fortunate to visit Las Vegas for the WPPI convention, I say fortunate because I always think that with me gone for 5 days my wife will have to double up and do everything herself, kids to school and daycare and back, breakfast, lunch and dinner, the chores and all it takes to run a family, so thank you Anita! This means a lot to me, networking, meeting new people, new products....and as always a shoot around Las Vegas.


This year was no different, ONLY for the weather, I always hope that during the 5 days I am there it is going to be HOT, really really HOT. Well this time it was actually COLD to the point where, during our photo shoot, it started SNOWING..I mean! Seriously!? I leave Calgary and I go to the desert and it snows! Anyway, at least I am used to it. The photos that you see here were taken in 2 days. On the first with Patricia in the red dress, it was snowing, than raining than snowing again, you can see the white snow flakes. The 2nd day with Megan & Kelly, it was not snowing on this day but, we had all sorts of different lighting every 5 minutes, from cloudy to sunny than super dark than cold and windy and clouds, some sun and for the last we finished in a hail storm with a hint of sand blowing like crazy! So thank you again to the wonderful models, for keeping up with this bad weather. At the end the photos turned out great. Thinking back I actually loved the weather and the different lighting. Most of the photos are the originals, with just a hint of sharpness added in PS, some I played with the crazy colors and textures.
A big Big Thank You to Jackie from ETHOS BRIDAL here in Calgary for lending the beautiful wedding dresses, Veil and hair piece.
A huge thanks to Amelia from www.amelia-c.com for the fantastic makeup and hair for Meghan & Kelly.
The models THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! PATRICIA! MEGAN & KELLY!
Enjoy the photos.

WOW..these are all amazing and the light in the bridal shoot is my fav. Nothing better than dark clouds...
