Meanwhile Brian headed over to Taylor Seminary for some ping pong with the boys.

We’ve known James for a long time through Brian’s brother Andrew – who happened to be one of the groomsmen. He’s single ladies…

Love this shot from Brian of the boys heading to the chapel.

James and Chelsea were married at the Taylor Chapel… I loved that they had a centre aisle as most churches don’t have one!








This spring we introduced a new service that you can add on to any reception coverage. It’s our Pohltography crazy “booth”. We set up a booth during the reception for you and your guests to enjoy. You can grab a silly hat, strike a pose, write a meaningful message to the bride and groom, or get a picture with the sister or friend you don’t get to often see! Here’s a sample of the fun we had at James and Chelsea’s wedding.

We had so much fun at their wedding – it will be memorable in my mind always as the wedding I was oh so very pregnant. They were all (Rothe’s and Ohlmann’s alike) so good to me! I couldn’t have done it for anyone else and enjoyed it half as much!

Congratulations on your marriage James and Chelsea and God bless you two as you tackle Trinity Western together!

to…ok well I’m not going to show you my belly in the aftermath – but meet our latest addition, Evelyn Esther (aka… baby Eve)

Just like her sister she was comfy cozy and had to be encouraged out via an induction. And while there may have been some rather emotional moments while I was in early labour and felt like she was never going to come out – it was probably the best and easiest birth experience of my three kids. I was able to labour at home for several hours before heading in to the hospital – and she arrived just over an hour after we got there – only missing her brother’s birthday by less than an hour and a half!

I have some blogging to catch up on from sessions completed prior to Eve’s birth but in general we have closed the office for the next few weeks. As many of you know with your own babies, this time is so short and it’s so important to make the most of it. We will not be scheduling any sessions for the remainder of July and August and may be a bit slower to respond to e-mails during this time as well.

We are, however, already anticipating the fall, which is looking to be our busiest season yet! Because of this time in our lives, the number of sessions we can take on will be limited – but there will be some amazing deals! We will be announcing our fall/Christmas specials in the next few weeks! We are taking bookings for September and on. Saturdays book up quickly so if you are wanting a weekend session we encourage you to book sooner than later.

As well we will be unveiling a new logo and website in the next couple months. Thanks everyone for your patience as we sort out our lives as parents to 3!

Here is a sneak peak from our studio session a couple weeks ago!

We had fun singing, dancing, and in the end it was kind of a free for all as my kids made an appearance. The tutu’s came out and there may or may not be snapshots of my son dancing and twirling in a tutu which is totally coming out on his wedding day. Wanna see? Well ok…you twisted my arm…ahem

<3 ... *CUTIE*

And hopefully everyone will love each other when I return…a girl can dream right? Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Thanks again to Andrew Pohl!

As we grow “more married” it’s been fun to discover not only who we are as individuals but who we are as a couple. I think every couple has a personality – it’s own dynamic. If we were to get married all over again today I think our wedding would look very different than it did 6 years ago. We’re not as formal a couple as we maybe thought we could be back then? For example – our favorite romantic tradition is hot dogs at Ikea. Not joking…it’s how we do valentines day and at least one of the meals on our anniversary. The sappy reason for that is that we just enjoy each other and spending time with each other and find more to talk about in a crowded store restaurant then when we’ve dressed up to spend a night on the town (pressure!) The real reason is that I love hot dogs…no I LOVE hot dogs. I could eat them for breakfast lunch and dinner. Hot dogs in a cheap Swedish furniture store?…GENIUS! Brian doesn’t have quite the same love affair for hot dogs but he does love that they are cheap. (Shhh…I’m not sure it’s dawned on him that what he’s saved in hot dogs is spent elsewhere in the store )

Anyway all this to say that recently I stumbled across this awesome blog that is constantly being updated with photos from all kinds of weddings. What I love about this blog is seeing all the details and being inspired by them. Those of you who have had a wedding shot by myself and Brian know that I LOVE the details of your day. It’s what helps me to get to know you even more! I love seeing what things you’ve chosen to represent you as a couple, or just even what adds to the fun your guests have at your wedding.

And because no blog post is complete without a picture or two…These are some of my personal favorite details from just a few of the weddings I’ve shot this last year. I had the pleasure of being a second shooter for Lisa Lacroix last summer and fall and many of the fabulous detail shots seen here are from those weddings.

Here are some of my favorites from their wedding day.

Then we grabbed some pics out at Queen Elizabeth Park.

And we finished up at Block 1912 a great little coffee shop on Whyte Ave!

Thanks for letting us be a part of your wedding day Darcy and Laura!
