Calgary Zoo Wedding Photographer
Andy and Stephanie are in some respects completely opposite of one another. She’s outgoing, he’s more reserved. She loves to bake, he loves to work out. What they share in common is their love for one another. Their love is deep and true, and it blesses all who know them. I was honoured to get to know these two over the past year and witness them exchange their wedding vows at the Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Cross.
After they officially became husband and wife, we headed down to The Calgary Zoo for photos and the reception at the Safari Lodge. We had a gorilla come check out the bride and pose for a few photos, and we just managed to escape the attack of a T-rex;)
Andy & Stephanie – It has been my pleasure to get to know you and be by your side on your wedding day. I hope you had a wonderful honeymoon in St Lucia, and I wish you every blessing as you begin your lives together.

When Andy proposed, he had all kinds of cheesecake for Stephanie as it’s her favourite dessert. So it was fitting (and delicious!) that they had cheesecake wedding favours that guests could dress up any way they liked!
