I was asked by a friend if I would be interested in photographing a Fundraising golf tournament. When I was told it was for a 6 year old who has Spinal Muscular Atrophy I was honored to have the opportunity to help out. This was the 3rd Annual Pyper Pro AM and was hosted at the Edmonton Petroleum Golf and Country Club.

After a little warm up the golfing got underway.

It was a gorgeous fall day at the Edmonton Petroleum Golf and Country Club

This is such a beautiful golf course, the views all around were simply stunning!

I love these pants, you think Angela would be caught in public with me if I wore them?

As the sun got low and the golf neared the end I was a little sad to see the day go…

I had such a great time, the day was filled with competition, camaraderie, hope, and emotion, and generosity!

Brett and Darcy exchanged vows on a beautiful fall day in the Protection of the blessed Virgin Mary church and it is gorgeous inside!

The guys kept things loose outside anxiously awaiting the arrival of Brett and the girls

I love this shot of Darcy’s mom putting his boutonniere on, the flowers from Floral Studio at Holes were amazing.

Time for dad’s boutonniere. I love the pin technique, kind of looks familiar right.

Once the girls arrived Darcy ducked inside and took his place awaiting the arrival of Brett.

By the expression on his face I would say he was speechless upon seeing Brett for the first time!

They each wore a crown for part of the ceremony that needed a little help from the Best Man and Maid of Honour to stay in place. Kudos to those two because for about 30 minutes or so they had their arms up in the air holding them in place. My arms almost fell asleep just thinking about it!

I love the looks couples exchange during their ceremony, especially if they have not done a first look prior to the ceremony. This is the first chance they have to take in all the details of each other, almost like meeting each other for the first time all over again.

Mr and Mrs!

One thing is for sure, they know how to have fun, seriously the wedding party were cracking each other up all day!

Back to a few more serious photos.

I love the Black & White in these two!

Brett’s rings were actually made up of 3 rings that stacked together surrounding the engagement ring, very cool but very hard to get them to stand up!

Brett and Darcy had our photo booth at their wedding, check out some of the fun that was had at their booth.

Congratulations Brett & Darcy, we had a great time spending the day with you guys. Everything about the day was amazing, we were touched by the words your friends and family shared with you and about you guys. It was a very special day indeed with lots of laughter and sentiment.

Brandon got a big kid bike for his 3rd birthday, his first two wheel bicycle. He was super excited because now he had a big boy bike just like Owen’s and wanted to ride it right away. He did a “lap” in the living room, just like Owen did when he got his bike but of course you have to go outside to do any real riding!

Brandon needed a little help figuring out the pedals, of course grandma K was very helpful in showing Brandon how to push with his feet.

Once he got the lesson in how to pedal he laid tracks with his pants on backwards and Owen in pursuit!

Of course Owen has a little more practice than Brandon riding a two wheeler so he has started standing to pedal faster and has incorporated some stunt riding.

With more experience Owen soon took the lead, but Brandon dug down and gave it his all so that he could keep up, with a little push from mom of course!

Like any young protege Brandon did not take long to figure out how to do a little stunting of his own. Check out my two Evil Kenevils ;)

After a long ride and the odd crash Brandon needed a little extra encouragement from Owen to make it home, again. Brothers are the best hey!
