Shawna & Mike :: Engaged!!

Meet Shawna and Mike!! They’re getting married this July and I’m already looking forward to their wedding, I had SUCH a fun time hanging out with them for their engagement shoot! They’re both such wonderful people, so nice, so fun, so funny, and they have a perfect combination of having fun and making each other laugh a lot, and also being so sweet and romantic together!! And I have to repeat just how much I love their laughter and how they get each other laughing so easily, I love it so much!!

We went to Fort Whyte Alive first, and luckily they brought rain boots so they could trudge through mud and a little snow! It was so nice that day and we were all just so happy being outside and basking in the sunshine and warmth! We had lots of fun exploring, taking lots of photos, and searching for beautiful light! Then we headed off to the Exchange for a few more photos, the light was beautiful and Mike had even scouted out a few locations! A little tidbit, I have to mention it cause I’m so fascinated by it – Mike works in (I hope I say this semi-correctly!) computer graphics for movies, he specializes in creating water scenes for movies and probably TV shows as well, so for example a big tidal wave coming in, he helps create that and make it look so real!!! How cool is that?!! I have no idea how they do it so it’s so interesting hearing about it!

I want to thank Shawna and Mike for being so wonderfully patient, I didn’t get much done for about three weeks due to all-day-early-pregnancy symptoms, and was getting so stressed about it. I’m so happy to finally be getting their photos to them! I had a very hard time choosing which ones to blog cause there are so many wonderful and fun shots (you’ll both see all of them in a couple days now!)! Thank you so much, Shawna and Mike, both for being so patient and understanding, and also for being so much fun to hang out with! I already know your wedding will be fabulously fun all day long!!!

And now, here are a few of my favorites from the day! ::
