Spotlight on the Enjoy Centre: Fabulous wedding venue in St Albert

Wednesday, September 14th, 2011

I consider myself lucky that I get to photograph weddings in such beautiful places. I was especially excited when the Enjoy Centre in St Albert opened and I got to photograph a fabulous wedding there back in August. The whole building is a photographer’s dream with amazing light and so many cool and funky spaces to shoot in. I just adore the Prairie Bistro with it’s ultra-modern styling, the open-air outdoor spaces with steel walls and lots of wood and glass are just amazing, the bright yellow walls around the movng sidewalk… just awesome! I think this place has the coolest washrooms I have ever been in too. Last, but certainly not least, is the enormous Moonflower Room with it’s glass ceilings, concrete floors and awesome loft area. The light in this room is magnificient!!

These are just a few shots to show off the glorious Moonflower Room during Nicole & Nicholas’s wedding (more photos coming soon for their wedding post. I love photographing in the Enjoy Centre so much that I am offering 10% of my wedding photography packages for new weddings booked before December 31, 2011 for weddings being held at the Enjoy Centre! So get in touch to book a consulation, e-mail elizabeth@envphotography.com.

Have you checked out Weddings in Alberta yet? Banff | Calgary | Edmonton

Monday, April 11th, 2011

There’s a great new magazine for brides (and grooms too!) getting married in Alberta! The magazine is distributed throughout the province  and it’s free for you to pick up! It features real Alberta weddings and all Alberta vendors too. I really like the magazine, it has a great look and lots of useful content… I like it so much that I decide to jump on board as an advertiser and my first ad wil run in the May 2011 issue. I’m pretty excited! There’s lots of weddings from Calgary, Edmonton, Banff, Jasper and rural Alberta. I will also have the magazine available in the studio, so let me know if you would like a copy! Be sure to grab a copy when you come in for a consult for your wedding photography!

Weddings in Alberta also has a great online collection hosted in their Inspiration Room. A few of my weddings and other shoots have been featured recently and you should go take a peek!

Edmonton Portrait Photographer | Allison Brinsky of Sitting Pretty Events

Thursday, April 7th, 2011

A little while ago, Allison joined me in the studio for a portrait session to get her some images to use for her website (if you are in the market for linens for your wedding or special event, check her out at www.sittingprettyevents.com and for me to have a little fun. We shot in the studio and we ventured out in to my favourite parts of the building where the studio is. I love the industrial look of the sprinkler room and the warehouse elevator, just makes for a neat backdrop. These are a few of my favourite shots!
