Albums, Prints & Files, OH MY!! |Edmonton & International Photographer

Hey Everybody!Today I thought I would share a couple photos and personal opinions. Which, for the many of you who know me, is a pretty common occurrence ;-). So here we go; to me one the major advantages to hiring a professional photographer is a professional end product. From the actual photographs, to the prints, to the albums, your special moments will not soon be forgotten when captured by the right photographer. There is a ton of different photographers, styles and products available and it can be an overwhelming task to find the photographer that fits you, whether it be for a wedding or an individual shoot. But I encourage everyone to put a little bit of research into your future photographer, I think you will be pleasantly surprised by the quality and talent that is available. Lastly, I thought it might be nice to share with you some of the products I have been offering. So, I took some photos of the latest order to come through Karmen Meyer Photography :) And I will continue to try to take a few snaps as different product comes through to give you a better idea of what is available! ENJOY!!Truly,Karmen

Happy Valentines Day, Our Story | Edmonton & International Photographer

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!! I hope that whether you are single or attached you take time today to appreciate all the loved ones in your life =) I know I am so thankful and feel so blessed everyday to have an amazing husband, and of course a fantastic dog Penny! I am admittedly not the most romantic person in the world but what the heck, it's supposed to be the most romantic day of the year or something so I will share with you a bit of our story in photos.Brad and I met in grade 10 and have been dating since grade 11, haha yup, we are high school sweethearts. Unfortunately, we don't have many photos from this time. We were just to plain busy having fun and hanging out with friends to get any. But I managed to scavenge some from just after grad off of facebook, and one of these days I will track down some grad photos from my mom. O man we look so goofy!Here is some more photos from right after grade 12 (I think). My mama took some for us one afternoon, and I am super glad that she did!Okay, not gonna lie, I think this is totally cool! We went on a high school Europe trip together!! Unforgettable =)On October 4th, 2008 Brad gave me a huge surprise for our 4 year anniversary. Packed and ready for nice weekend in the mountains, I soon found myself on an airplane on my way to Victoria! It was such a fantastic weekend of exploring the city by foot and by rented motorcycles. How we even got two bikes is beyond me, Brad doesn't even have a bike license!! But, we convinced them it is cool in Alberta and they let us take them. Which is lucky since after a long, cold, windy and rainy trip to 'Point no Point' Brad proposed to a freezing cold me. It was freaking awesome! I mean rain, motorcycles and the ocean, even I will admit that is pretty romantic ;)Told you it was wet!Wiffin Spit Park at Point No Point where Brad proposed, so pretty!Engaged Us!!Some engagement photos taken by awesome friend and amazing photog Crux!We finally got hitched on August 21st, 2009. The day was perfect. I always wished I could get married on a beach or in some European country but it was absolutely amazing to be surrounded by our amazing friends and family. Photos again by Crux!We had a fantastic time in San Fran on our honeymoon =) I am constantly planning our next trip together, can't wait!Our first year of marriage was absolutely amazing and included the purchase of our first house! And the initiation of what feels like never ending renovations! We love it, it feels like home.Which brings us to some of the more recent photographs from this Christmas and my Birthday!!

For the entire time I have known Brad there has never been a dull moment. Life has been good to use and we have been grateful. Together we have been for almost 7 years and married almost 2. And what amazing years they have been, I cannot imagine it any other way. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed a little piece of our story =) Have a great rest of your V-Day Evening!! We send you lot's of love and good wishes!Truly,Karmen

Stefan & Michelle | Edmonton Wedding Photographers

So, confession time, I have been terrible at doing full posts of weddings, in fact, I don't think I ever have!! But I am really going to try and change that starting now. Here we go:I would like to introduce you to a fantastic Edmonton couple, Stefan & Michelle. I was very excited to join them to document their ceremony and take some photos of just them, in love. The ceremony took place on a gorgeous September afternoon in the beautiful Wedgwood Room at the Fairmont Hotel McDonald. The place looked amazing, filled with a nervous groom, all their friends and family. Gorgeous light poured in from the tall windows as Michelle made her way down the isle. It was really beautiful. Then, after a short and very sweet ceremony, Stefan and Michelle cut their cake and joined their friends and family for snacks and drinks! It was easy to see they were so loved. But, after a while I had to pry them away for a short while to do some photos of just them. We had to fight a little to get a spot to shoot with another wedding going on, but we had just enough time to get some great shots outside before it started pouring rain. I think that the rain made it even more romantic when we moved indoors to finish the session. The hotel was filled with soft light and amazing nooks and crannies. Such a great afternoon to spend with a lovely couple, I hope that they will cherish their wedding images forever. ENJOY!!Truly,Karmen
