Me?

A photographer taking formal family pictures???

I just proved Scott Kelby right.

He says that as soon as you have a big camera, your cousin will come and ask if you’ll shoot his wedding.

Well, I didn’t have to photograph a wedding.

And it wasn’t my cousin either.

It was my dear “Aunt and Uncle”. I know that sounds old so I’ll quickly show you a picture to nullify that statement.

No to continue the ‘nullifying’ process, these happy people were willing to let me try out my techniques (and my camera) on them.

After the church service, we went to Elkwater Interprovincial Park for lunch with them. This beautiful park is an irony to the statement that Alberta is plain.

There’s actually a few mountains covered in evergreens rising out of the plains (that are actually quite hilly.)

We took turns taking pictures of each others families.

However Mama says that you don’t take two men along to take family pictures because this is what happens just when the little girly is smiling…

But we did get quite a few nice pictures and I’m glad for that.

However the day was not stress-free and losing my len’s cover did not relieve the stress in any way.

Anyway, here’s a few more pictures:
