Local wedding photographer Tanya Plonka asked if I would help her shoot an exceptional wedding a few weeks ago in Lethbridge. I’ve shot with her before on personal projects and the potential pressure of wedding shooting really solidified the teamwork between us.
Ian & Amber, our couple for the day were certianly easy to work with, what a great looking couple! My job was to hang back and capture candids with the long lens (wedding paparazzi) which was a ton of fun. I started the day at St. Pat’s for the ceremony (beautiful setting, lots of stained glass and pale contrasting tones) and then off to Henderson Lake and the Galt Museum for wedding party photos.
This was the first wedding of 2009 for me, and was a great warmup for some of the solo couples I’ve booked through the year. Ian & Amber are off to Thailand for their honeymoon, for a well deserved break.
I hope to work with Tanya again in this capacity, it really was low stress, high quality results.
