Dogs at Slave Lake

Jeff and I went to visit our friends Lori and Todd in Slave Lake this past summer and I enjoyed hanging out with all the dogs that weekend. I photographed the 4 dogs in the back of the truck as well as Lori's dog with the tongue hanging out.

I had a lot of fun photographing the Thompson family in Jasper on Thanksgiving long weekend. Celebrating an anniversary together was a memorable experience for them all as they come from all parts of Canada. Thanks for a great afternoon!

Jonathan & Dawn's Wedding - September 8, 2007

What a fun day we had! We got poured on, hailed on as we were trying to hide under trees and umbrellas during the portrait session. This was the most wet I'd ever gotten during a session before! We dined in the limo and enjoyed some play time in Emily Murphy Park in Edmonton as well! Jonathan & Dawn both play soccer, so it was quite fitting for them to get the soccer ball out on their wedding day and kick it around for awhile. Congratulations Jonathan & Dawn! - Rachel J

Joe & Diana's Wedding - August 26, 2007

What can I say?! Joe and Diana are great friends and this was a fantastic day! The wedding took place outside of Edmonton in the Devonian Gardens and we had great weather. No rain! Have fun browsing the images. - Rachel J

Peter & Barb's Wedding - August 25, 2007

I'm finally getting caught up after a very busy September!! Because of many changes in my life, things got a little crazy for me, but they're more under control now. :)

Peter and Barb's wedding day here in Edmonton was a blast! I've never laughed so much in one day! We had great weather overall and enjoyed our time throughout the day. Barb was a fantastic bride - completely relaxed and calm and went with the flow for the entire day. Thanks for a great time and enjoy the photos!

Cynthia & Mark's Wedding

These are some images Rachel shot on August 18th in Edmonton for Cynthia & Mark's wedding.

"Although it rained off and on all afternoon (in true Edmonton weather fashion), it was still a really fun day and we got some great images. Thanks Cynthia & Mark for allowing me to capture your wedding day. Thanks for the awesome day!" - Rachel J

Vintage

One of my favorite Rachel J images. My mom really likes it too (she shows it to everyone she directs to the website!)

Sorry we have been a-wol the last month, but we have been super busy at the studio! I thought I'd post a classic image to keep you interested.

Stay tuned, we will be updating soon!

Ryan and Jenny's Wedding - August 6, 2007

Jodi and Detlef's Wedding - August 5, 2007

I was the matron of honour in my dear friend Jodi's wedding last weekend in Calgary. I was fortunate to take some images to share with you. Enjoy the slideshow!

Commercial Shoots

In the past couple of months I've done some shooting for the City of Edmonton. Here you will see some images of cemetaries and an image of the Blatchford Hangar all decorated at Fort Edmonton Park.

Northern Lights

On Monday my cousin-in-law Jenny was married at Nakoda Lodge close to Canmore, Alberta. After the reception I enjoyed just sitting by the lake looking at the stars. To my amazement there were some Northern Lights and I witnessed about 5 shooting stars. One particular shooting star was absolutely incredible. It shot across the sky with a huge tail lasting about 10-15 seconds. It was one of the most beautiful things I've ever witnessed. I didn't have a tripod and only one lens so the shot that you see here is crooked but I don't even mind it like that and I did my best doing a 30 second exposure without a remote release. It's truly amazing how fast the stars travel in such a short period of time. I think more night shooting is in my near future!
