I was so excited to finally meet Jessica & Jaret for their engagement shoot! They both live in Alberta and have been moving around a lot as well as doing some traveling, and we hadn’t had the chance to meet before they booked me for their wedding day. I always get a little nervous meeting a new bride and groom in person for the first time, but that feeling went away instantly as Jessica’s first words to me were: “I used to have that car, and in Yellow too!” I knew she sounded like a great person through her emails! These two are just so sweet together 🙂 They were both adamant that they didn’t photograph well, and were a little awkward in front of the camera, but I had them laughing. giggling and being themselves in no time, and as you can see through their photos I think they were lying to me! These two are so at ease with one another. You can tell that Jaret is so in love with Jessica – his eyes literally twinkled when he looked at her and I can just see that he wants to be her protector and her best friend forever. He’s such a gentleman! And then you see Jessica and you can see why he’s so smitten! First off, she’s stunning and she has such a rad personality to match. Plus, I’ve never had such hair envy before in my life – it was like she was starring in a shampoo commercial! Jessica is so affectionate with Jaret too! The way she nuzzled in to him and how she never stopped smiling when he was around – love just makes me so happy! They were also awesome with all my crazy suggestions (Me: I know it’s -20 out here and you guys are getting cold, but would you mind crawling under this tree and sitting in the snow for a few pictures? Them: Okay!) and although it was cold we barely noticed with all the fun we were having! I absolutely cannot wait to photograph you two cuties on your wedding day! xo 
When you have beautiful hair like Jessica’s, you have to do some twirl shots!
