Calgary Wedding Photographer | Redfern Photography bio picture

I'm Lisa Redfern, a photographer based in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, specializing in weddings and portraits -- people are my primary subject. I shoot in a portrait journalist style, which is a combination of capturing moments as they happen, and posed portrait shots.

This all started for me in university, where I shot my first wedding in 1997, while I was studying photography (it was film and darkrooms back then!). Photography brings so much happiness not only to my life, but also to my clients. Being allowed in to peoples' lives and events is such a happy privilege, I feel very honoured to be capturing memories and sharing in special occasions.

My purpose in blogging is for my clients to have the chance to get to know me a bit better in the comforting glow of their own computer. I don't take myself too seriously, and want every session to be a fun experience for myself and my subjects while striving to capture beautiful images. The most frequent comment I get at the end of a shoot is "that was fun!", which is about the best compliment I could get.

You can also follow me on Twitter or Facebook. Thank you for visiting my site!

Ray & Aya – Engagement

Just as I write this post, it is currently snowing outside. Just like every year, my husband assures me that it’s more than late enough in the year for snow, and every year I stare at it as if it’s far too soon. So this weekend has been snowing and cold, but last week it was practically summertime; sunshine and 30 degrees. I’m really glad that Ray, Aya and I had our session last weekend.

I had such a hard time choosing a few images for the sneak peek, the two of them are so adorable, especially together.
