Petal & Blum Red Deer Florist Branding Session | Red Deer Brand Photographer

Meet the bubbly mastermind behind one of my favourite florists in Red Deer, Rebecca who owns Petal & Blum! Rebecca is a genuinely kind woman who’s roots run deep (not sorry for plant puns) in the greenhouse industry. I love her personality and her creations, they’re always so inspiring. She is truly always about creating community, which is also a huge passion of mine. There is a whole big world out there, and more than enough clients for everyone and we’re firm believers in community over competition. It’s not a very common concept to some, but we thrive in growing positive connections with others, and I think that’s beautiful!

We always have such a good time together, these shots were taken at my Motherhood Mini’s last year in Red Deer, and the flower wall was Rebecca’s idea! She made custom bouquets with all of my clients, and then we did some fun behind the scenes stuff too because well… social media, am I right?

Here’s the ray of sunshine herself, and she also brought along some divine delectables from Berry Bean Chocolate who is based out of Sylvan Lake. You MUST try them, so good!

Red Deer Family Studio Portraits | Red Deer Family Photographer

Megan and her two littles joined us in our downtown Red Deer studio for the Motherhood Mini sessions I hosted, and goodness they’re just the cutest! Megan works so hard to provide a safe and loving environment for her kids, and I have a huge place in my heart for her kind soul and her kiddos.

I too was a single mom for a long time, it’s not a journey that I had ever imagined that I would walk, but you do it because you want better for your children. That looks different for everyone, and I commend all families that can put their kids first in a way that is helpful and positive for everyone.

Being a mother really changed me as a person and as a photographer. You realize so many things are more precious like time, moments, and feelings. The main goal I have for every session is to capture you and your loved ones in this very moment in front of my lens, just as perfect and beautiful as you are now. So that you can look back and cherish those moments forever. The way your babies hair smelled in the moment you were snuggling up so close. The way that your hair falls in your face when you’re giggling along with your babies as you tickle them. The way that they look at you because to them, their momma is the most precious person in the world.

I could not be more grateful for the opportunities that photography has provided to me, and to have done this for 15 years now is such a blessing. Alberta has truly made me so passionate about my photography, there’s so many stunning places to capture with my camera and they’re all made possible thanks to all of my clients.

Enough of my emotional ramblings, check these cuties out!

Red Deer Studio Family Session | The E Family | Red Deer Photographer

This beautiful twin family joined me in my downtown studio sessions in Red Deer for some of their first photos together! The one thing about Alberta is the weather is so unpredictable in the spring, so having an indoor studio option is such a blessing! Especially when you have to fresh little babies to think about!

I hosted some Motherhood Mini’s in the studio, complete with a stunning floral wall and a flower bar to make your own take home bouquet with Rebecca of Petal & Blum. If you’re looking for a florist for your Red Deer wedding or just for some gorgeous at home decor, definitely check Rebecca out on Instagram, she is so talented!

My incredible friend Ruby and I met a long time ago on a styled wedding shoot, and her and I have so much in common both being amazing women in business and both coming from a Latin background to Central Alberta. She owns The Maby Studio, which is one of my favourite businesses to collaborate with! Look up their rental inventory for some stunning wedding decor, they also offer set up and take down for Alberta weddings. She also has a few other ventures on the go and is the sweetest human ever. I am so blessed to know her, and have her in my life. Matt is such a genuine guy too, he loves his family so much.

I had the immense honor of photographing the Maby babies and their parents, and I just love how light and airy these turned out, perfect with the flower wall and my beautiful client closet dress! And now the babies are almost one! Time to celebrate!
