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.

Ashley & Craig | Calgary Engagement Photography

Tuesday evening I got together with Ashley and Craig for a pre-wedding e-session. I met Craig for the first time as he’s recently returned from serving overseas. When they booked me last winter to photograph their wedding, I only met with Ashley.

I’m really happy that they went for the engagement session even though their wedding is later this very month — not only because I had a chance to take their photos and meet Craig, but because I had a chance to do some portraits during the time the cherry blossoms were still out! I’ve been dying to get at least a few shots before they fade away. I love cherry and apple blossoms. Here are a few images from the evening…

We had a great time at Eau Claire Park, it was a lovely evening and these two are naturally photogenic. Looking forward to photographing their wedding later this month!
