A little more from Canmore and area

Jake + Jess — Mon, 25 Jul 2011 19:04:00 +0000

Just wanted to post a few more photos from our trip out west =) We had an amazing time on our little trip, but are definitely happy to be home. Being in such a relaxed environment, as well as feel such accomplishment climbing a mountain, it will definitely be a trip we won’t soon forget.

A 7900ft Climb to Ha Ling Peak

Jake + Jess — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 18:41:34 +0000

Yesterday was a day full of incredible self accomplishment. As two prairie folk the idea of climbing a mountain is nothing short of HUGE! We decided while out in Canmore, it would only make sense that we attempt this lofty goal of making it all the way up to the summit of at least one mountain.

It was a climb that took us more then 3000ft up the back side to the peak, and the feeling of sitting at the top, staring down at the world was amazing. It terms of altitude, we actually tossed snowballs at each other in July =) It was an amazing feeling of accomplishment, one of those, “I can do anything!!” moments =)

The Mountains.

Jake + Jess — Fri, 15 Jul 2011 16:41:49 +0000

There is a place I always feel truly at peace. A place that puts the grand size of the world in perspective. The first time I traveled to the Rockies as a kid, I was absolutely in awe, the shear size of these bent, twisted pieces of rock, for someone from the prairies it was beyond amazing.

I have to say we have some of the best clients in the world. We were invited to Canmore by one of our couples who let us borrow their home while they vacation at the cabin in BC, and needless to say we jumped at the opportunity. We are out in Canmore relaxing, recharging, and dreaming. Being here we also get to fulfil a dream of ours and photograph a couple of ours in such a rugged beautiful landscape. We absolutely cannot wait =)

All of the below photos were shot on the iPhone for those wondering. More to come!

Antique Engagement – Kathryn + Wes

Jake + Jess — Fri, 01 Jul 2011 17:40:21 +0000

Both Kathryn & Wes work behind the scenes in the film industry, and are passionate about art of every kind. Their home is a fitting reflection of their creative, one of a kind and genuine characters, filled with an eclectic assortment of collectables, knick-knacks and antiques. We began their session there, within the compilation of their treasures, later moving to an antique store to join them within one of their favourite past-times. We love this couple and love the unintentional symbology within this engagement session! Two people accumulating throughout their lives, coming together, then collecting together:) Love!

We’ll be joining Kathryn and Wes on their wedding adventure next April, beginning with their elopement in New York, followed by more festivities and celebrations with family and friends back here in Winnipeg the following weekend. Can’t wait!

First flights

Jake + Jess — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 18:35:07 +0000

A couple weekends ago, we got to have a little fun, we got to take our sister in law on a birthday flight (first time in a small plane,) but also our 3 year old nephew Cole got to come along as well. For me (Jake) personally, I remember vividly my first airplane ride. I was about 4 or 5 and got to fly with my mom to go visit my grandparents in Ontario. This was way back when, when kids were allowed to go first the flight crew in the cockpit, and see how this giant thing actually works. From that day forward I was absolutely enthralled by the idea of flight, being in the sky, dancing around, free…

Our nephew I think had very much the same reaction. From the point our wheels left the ground, he sat with an ear to ear grin. It would be neat to know what the thoughts in his head were. How does someone so young comprehend the idea of flying?

Tea for two

Jake + Jess — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 17:56:44 +0000

It seemed rather fitting to do a post about tea today with all the chatter about the Royal Wedding. A few months ago we discovered a new tea shop here in the city called, Davids Tea. We were extremely intrigued by the incredible variety of teas they had on the shelf, and decided to give it a whirl. One word; AMAZING!! I myself, Jake, have always been a very big coffee drinker, however some of the tea they have is incredible! Don’t think stuffy tea, think fun, flavorful tea. We frequent the shop about once a month to stock up on our favs, however they release lots of special seasonal teas every little bit as well.

If you haven’t been, check it out, their staff is amazing, and will definitely help you find something that tickles your fancy. Also so if you’re looking for a unique wedding favor, they also do those! Info on that here.

Also on a side, small world, personal note. It turns out the best man from our own wedding, is currently completing his MBA with David’s brother.

Tara + Jamie

Jake + Jess — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 17:40:59 +0000

Once upon a time we met a couple named Tara and Jamie. The moment they walked in the door, the visions of their wedding flew through our minds. They are two of the most down to earth people we have ever met… they are creative, honest, fun loving, and just plain awesome to be around. We were beyond excited to work with them, and can’t thank them enough for having us join them on their wedding day.

Laura + Craig

Laura and Craig are absolutely incredible people. We were fortunate enough to photograph their wedding with the recommendation from a friend of theirs, who is also a great friend of ours. Laura looked absolutely stunning, and the day was filled with an incredible amount of love. Thank you so much Laura and Craig for letting us join you on your wedding day, you guys are absolutely amazing people, and we wish you nothing but an incredible life together!

Ellie.

Jake + Jess — Fri, 29 Apr 2011 14:30:45 +0000

We had the pleasure of working with Ellie a few weeks ago. We actually met her at a recent wedding she was attending as a guest. We have some super awesome plans for future shoots with Ellie and can’t wait to work with her again =)
