Before & After

I love seeing what Photoshop can do to an image.  Before I save an edited image, I love to look at the original again to see how the image has been manipulated.  Here are a few Before & Afters from a few of my most recent sessions.


Thankfully, Photoshop can also save under-exposed images! :)

Dana & Melissa - Calgary Wedding Photography

This summer while living in Calgary (my hometown), I had the opportunity to shoot a wedding with my sister Heather (www.heatherpalmer.ca).  It was so fun for me to see how she works and assist her as a second shooter, and for us to spend time together doing something we both love!  It definitely made me miss living up there - I know we both came away from that day wishing we could assist each other on every wedding we shoot! 

I previously edited a few images from this wedding, but then passed them along to my sister to give to Melissa - so I completely spaced posting them on here.  So, without further adieu, here are some images I came away with at Dana and Melissa's beautiful Calgary wedding!  

Congratulations again you two!  You make a beautiful couple!


















Watching my sister do her thing!
