Back to School!

Yes... It's that time of year again! Everyone is back to school, and summer fun is fading away - except at Astoria! This is our busy time of year for pinup sessions and indeed our School Girl - is a popular one! Michelle was our first this 2009/2010 season but we've got a lot of other girls lined up! :)

Pinup photos, posters or calendars make a wonderful, unique holiday gift. To book your fall session call (403) 685-5590.

Looking forward to seeing you as a pinup!

Kathy & Ben

What a Classy Couple! I don't even know Kathy, but she looked absolutley Stunning on her wedding day last weekend! I was in LOVE with her dress - the lace kept sparkelling in the sun, but it was so subtle - simply beautiful! We did these pictures up at Spray Lakes - about 15 or 20 minutes out of Canmore, the road was winding and dusty for a bit - but well worth it!

Photographers Crash the Photobooth!

Niki and I just couldn't resist the photobooth at Christie's wedding reception! After a long day of shooting behind the camera, we thought this would be a perfect way for them to remember us - and our all of our camera gear! Congrats Christie & Dylan and thanks for the memories! :)

Rocky Mountain - Extreme Photography!

What a fun couple! Christy & Dylan's wedding made my summer! Their ceremony was at Norquay with a wonderful reception back in Banff. They were easy going, fun-loving and completely relaxed the whole day!
This was the first time I actually hung out of a moving vehicle - SnickerNiki was driving - in order to get the shot! I felt like one of those dogs hanging out the window of the car, on the highway, with their tongues and ears flapping in the wind! Anyhow, got some cool, different sort of wedding photos for those guys.

Carrie & Nathan

Helped out Snickerdoodle Photography a couple of weeks ago and had the opportunity to shoot a wedding at Quarry Lake again, in Canmore. The weather was perfect - too hot for some as we had one guest faint during the group shots! She was ok again after some water. Niki took took us to some very remote places for the wedding party photos. Locations included a secret cabin, the train bridge and of course, the reservoir near the Nordic Centre. Great group, and I loved the ring bearer and flower girl - super cute kids! All the best Carrie & Nathan!

Catalogue Corner - in our Garden

I don't mean to brag, but we have such an awesome garden! In the corner of our front yard there is a spot where the lighting is perfect, and absolutely every picture turns out awesome. So good, that I've started calling it Catalogue Corner! :) GJ was the latest client to take advantage of our surroundings. She needed some portraits in a hurry for a commercial website, so she stopped by on sunny afternoon. Being so beautiful, she was a breeze to photograph! Good luck with your new career Glori-Jeanne!

Mr. Kelley

What a pleasure it was to photography Mr. Kelley last month. He was a very distinguished, and cooperative client! We had a great evening out in his garden, smelled the flowers, chased a dragonfly, and his own reflection and even had time for some grooming inside. He's a wonderful cat! Just turned 14. All the best Kelley and wishing you many more lazy birthdays in the future!
