Happy Mother's Day!

5/12/2019

0 Comments

 
We would love to send the happiest of wishes to all the mother's!  Happy Mother's Day!
 As Mom's, we always shy away, and are the ones behind the camera instead of in front of it.  
​Lets change that, and get back in the photo!!!

We spent a day in April celebrating Mom's with their littles, and we want to share the images and a little bit about each of the photographers!!!  

Grey Lily Photography
​

Hi Everyone! My name is Melanie and I am the owner of Grey Lily Photography. I am originally from a small town in Ontario and have been living in the beautiful city of Calgary for almost 8 years. I am 40 years old and an Aquarius :) My greatest loves are my new husband, my step son and our 2 kitties. My strengths are my faith, determination and my ability to admit when I'm wrong. My weaknesses are worrying, staying in my jammies all day, and anything with cheese on it or in it. I'm also an animal rights advocate and my outspokenness has been known to get me in a bit of trouble from time to time! I think I'm a comedian most days and love to make people laugh. I'm a bit shy at first but once you get to know me, I never stop talking!
My photography business has been one of the highlights of my life thus far. I have never been more proud of what I do every day. I've never had more joy than I do when I'm behind the camera. I can honestly say; it's my best life.
My style of photography is moody, romantic and candid. I love real moments. Unposed. Natural. Full of love and emotion. 
Thank you for reading a little about me. If you are currently searching for a wedding or lifestyle photographer and think we might be a good fit; I'd love to hear from you!
~Melanie, xo

Captured in Amber Photography
​

Hello! My name is Amber Stallard and I am a Calgary photographer. I am a fully licensed and insured. Expressing myself creatively whether that be through writing, acting or taking pictures is an outlet that I need in my life to be fully happy.
I have had the pleasure of capturing families lives since 2014. In 2018, I made the jump to weddings and haven't looked back. Families are the heart of my business and I will always make sure that I set time aside to capture those moments. My love for capturing weddings is deep. I love the pace of the day and who doesn't love to watch two people commit their lives to one another. 
My two beautiful children inspire me to be a better human and artist everyday. Capturing authentic and real moments is what drives me. Life is a story and I aim to tell it frame by frame. Thank you for taking the time to look into my work and considering me. I love choreographed dance routines.  My biggest fear is heights, always has been. I was born and raised in Calgary. I hear we are a rare breed. As a young adult I had an unhealthy obsession with the X-Files. My favorite season is fall. I could eat macaroni and cheese for every meal. Running is my element. I feel that it is meditation for my soul. I love going to concerts. Music is an essential part of who I am. 
British Columbia is heaven on earth and is one of my favorite places to visit. 
The universe blows my mind! Science is crazy. .

Hi! I am new to the photography world and new to Calgary, so the past year has been a fun change! 

I have always been that person who brings a camera everywhere I go - I am so drawn to life’s natural beauty, colour, connection and raw moments, and being able to capture those moments with a single photograph is a pretty spectacular thing to me!

I would describe myself as a natural light inspired lifestyle photographer - I feel there is a sort of raw and vulnerable emotion when someone is being photographed, and to be able to capture someone in that moment really allows you to tell their story.

​Hi! I am Lindsay, from Lindsay Sigalet Photography:) I am originally from Ohio! I have 4 children, Jaxon -7, Maddox-5, Sloane -4 and Knox-1.  We have moved all over the world with my husbands hockey career and now coaching. We have been in Calgary for 5 years and we love it.  I began my photography venture when my first child was born.  My love and passion for taking pictures has only grown since.  My specialty is newborn & family photography.  I love capturing moments for families that they will treasure for years to come.  That is magic to me, knowing I created MEMORIES!

Purple Couch Photography
Educated at several prestigious Universities in French Literature, Neuropsychology, and Education (Special Needs), my love for photography ultimately won.  Though I have a Certificate in Photography, I learned most from my photog parents back in the day! I began with Travel Photography, and eventually started capturing Families and their stages (Engagements, Weddings, Maternity, Newborns).  I realized I loved watching a person's beauty unfold the more we connected.  It wouldn't take long, and the instances of genuine contentment were frozen in time;  allowing them to be forever cherished.  My fascination with Boudoir and Cozy Couples blossomed as I began to notice the need for self-acceptance;  Mine, yours, everyone's!  Grant me the opportunity to showcase your individuality and inner magnificence!  I promise!  Your cup will runneth over!
