Baby Nyxon is a punctual little fellow.  His mommy went into labor on her actual due date, and little Nyxon arrived the day after on March 29th!
I was thrilled to be photographing him while he was so new to the world, especially after having done Kim’s maternity photos when Nyxon was in her belly!
What a treat he was.  I dont think he cried the whole time I was there… from the wishing well to his aviator photos,  he could not have been more cooperative, nor could he have been any cuter!

HUGE congratulations to Matthew and Kim, on the arrival of their sweet little boy!

Oh boy, am I ever terrible about keeping the KAS Images Blog up to date.    This year to celebrate Easter, KAS Images had a promotion advertised via our facebook page for Easter mini-sessions.  We were lucky enough to work with Liz over at Hooked on You, who crocheted us up a bunch of cute Easter hats that the kiddies got to keep at their session’s end.  Im attaching a sampler of  just some of the Easter promo captures for any of you out there who do not follow us on facebook.  Enjoy and HAPPY EASTER EVERY BUNNY!

What a great way to start 2012!  We were thrilled to be invited to photograph  Sol and Colleen’s winter wedding in Edmonton.  From Icon Studio Salon and the Fairmont  Hotel,  to The Windspear Music Center and finally off to the Windermere Golf Club for the Reception, every venue was a treat for the eyes and of course, for our cameras!

Everything about this wedding was upbeat and fun, a day filled with laughter and celebration from early in the morning, to late into the evening.  Im sure Sol and Colleen’s marriage will be filled with as much fun and joy as their wedding day was!  A big congratulations, to Mr. and Mrs.  Ronaghan!

Enjoy a small sample of photos from their wedding day!

There is not a whole lot that I enjoy more than throwing some of my dress up items into a vintage suitcase, packing up my camera, going for a visit and letting kids play dress up for the camera.  Two of my favorite little models are my stunning niece, Maya and her mischievous little brother Matthew.  The dress up day we had planned was an even bigger treat than usual as Addie and her baby brother Camden came to play as well.   The girls took turns in the  petti-romper and petti- skirt, while Matthew donned the magician’s wear, complete with top hat, long eared rabbit and yellow duck shoes.

Baby Camden was quite happy  modeling his own heart breaker outfit until I added a moustache to jazz him up a bit.  Then it was game over…. he was NOT impressed.
All in all, such a fun time had by all with some fantastically unique images to commemorate the day …. cant wait for more dress up days to come.

Andrea and Kelven  were engaged for roughly a total of two months before their wedding, which took place on November 26th 2011!  Who knew you could plan a wedding in such record time?
We shot their last minute engagement photos in mid October, and counted our luck that the warm fall weather held out for so long.

The theme of the wedding was peacock feathers, which provided a stunning contrast for the out of doors formals.  Despite a slight mishap, involving the Maid of Honor locking her keys inside her running vehicle along with the bridesmaid bouquets, extra sets of warm foot wear and her own shawl,  we still made a run of getting the winter wedding photos Andrea had envisioned for her special day.   While temperatures hovered just above freezing, every so often we were blasted with a gust of wind that was so cold you could barely catch your breath!   What a group of troopers, especially the lovely bride who teetered through the snow drifts in her white stiletto heels!  The results were worth it as you can see below I have attached a small sample of their engagement and wedding photos.

Congratulations again to Mr. and Mrs. Hall, we wish you a lifetime of warm weather.

Well its a new year and for us that means the countdown is on.  Before we know it we will be photographing our 2012 bridal couple’s very special days!  This year we are rolling out some new product packaging to celebrate.   KAS Images wedding couples will now receive their disc of wedding photos and DVD slide-show in a custom, double disc, photo wrapped case with magnetic closure.  Our first wedding up for 2012 is Sol Ronaghan and Colleen Bailey on January 21st 2012 in Edmonton.

Below is an example of our new custom disc packaging.  We photographed Kelvin and Andrea’s wedding  in late November of 2011 so it was perfect timing to do a test run of the new 2012 CD/DVD cases!  Stay tuned for a blog post including some of their beautiful winter wedding photos coming in the next week.

Is there anything more precious than a sleeping baby?  *sigh*
The litte bed pictured here was made for me by my wonderful and talented father-in-law and is easy enough to pack around for photo shoots.

Believe it or not, these photos were taken in Fish Creek Park when visiting in Calgary over the Christmas break.  How lovely to bring in the last week of 2011 with unseasonably warm weather!  It was balmy ten degrees and warm enough to stroll with our coats over our arms.  PJ and Kylie and their dog, Harley were in town visting from Langley, BC, so we took advantage of our time together and headed off for a jaunty bit of photo-taking.  Enjoy a small selection of photos from the day!

Going back to September we were blessed to be invited to photograph Desarie and Daniel’s big day, below I have included a gallery of just a handful of their photos!  They were married at the Bethel Church, followed by photos at first Legasse Park and then their farm.  Watching Daniel’s reaction to seeing Desarie walk down the aisle was incredible.  I have to say that might be my favorite moment of every wedding we photograph- the bride and groom’s reaction when they first see one another.   Des had big dreams of having some photos taken with her horses who had other ideas once they saw her coming in her big, beautiful dress…. they took one look and raced off, kicking, prancing  and snorting!  Following the photos it was off to Stry Hall ( love that venue) for the reception!  Congratulations to the amazing couple!  I know your marriage will be filled with as much love and laughter as your wedding day!  Below are a few sample photos of their big day!

Once again Im jumping back in time to the Thanksgiving long weekend in order to share a few photos of the Labine family.
We were blessed to be invited to photograph brand new baby Autumn Elizabeth who was only a handful of days old.  Welcome to the big world sweetheart and a big congratulations once again to the new mommy and daddy!
