Moody In Home Lifestyle Engagement Session | Calgary Engagement Photographer

Moody In Home Lifestyle Engagement Session

Alyssa & Cody

This super moody in home (well in studio) lifestyle engagement session just

gives me all of the cozy romantic feels!!  I don’t get to photograph couples often in my

studio but when couples request it I am more then happy to do it! There is such a different

feel to in home/studio session vs outdoor sessions. Both are romantic but in different ways

and indoor ones just have that instant cozy intimate vibe and the posing is a bit different

with furniture and the lighting can be quite different as well. There was a giant storm cloud

over the studio this day so the whole session had a bit more of a moody vibe to it. I wouldn’t

say I am a moody photographer, I tend to kinda be right in the middle between light and airy and

a more moody style but sometimes sessions pull a little more one way and this was one of them.

Alyssa and I’s email chats go a ways back now. We started chatting quite awhile ago about their

intimate wedding and I helped them pick the perfect location for their mountain vision. And when

we finally did meet I knew these two were the perfect fit for me. I always love when couples are

cuddly at their consult cause that means they will have no problems cuddling during their

engagement and wedding photos!

These two are planning a beautiful mountain wedding so they wanted something very

different for their engagement session. Alyssa loved that cozy intimate feel of my in studio

sessions and asked if we could do that. I was like HECK YES!! We had to postpone a couple

times due to covid but when the day finally came it was worth the wait!

I asked these two to answer some questions!

Read below all about what they said

How & when did you two meet? What was your first date?

We met online (shocker, right?) in 2016. We met for drinks and a round of mini golf at a sports bar
one night, but things didn’t work out at the time. Months later, we reconnected and from that
moment on, it was pure magic. Timing really was everything to make our relationship what it is now,
and we are so happy that things worked out the way they did – we wouldn’t change a
thing. Our first date was in 2016 at one of Alyssa’s all-time favorite places – Zoo Lights.
This also happened to be the place Cody proposed in 2018 on the second anniversary
of our first date! We have recreated our first date every year on that day, and we don’t see
that stopping any time soon. We’re cutesy like that.

Do you have an all time favorite date you’ve been on?

We have two favorite dates! Our first favorite is going out for bowling and beers!
It never gets old for us because we end up laughing and being silly the entire time, and that’s
just who we are as a couple. Our second favorite is adventuring in the mountains.
We love spending time in Canmore and Banff, whether it’s enjoying a craft beer in a rooftop
hot tub with people from all over the world or finding a new walking trail. We can’t wait to have
our intimate wedding in Canmore this October!

What is your favorite trip or experience you two have done

together? What made it so special?

Our first trip together was to Las Vegas with Alyssa’s sister and brother-in-law. The four of
us are such great friends and some of our best memories are from that trip. From late night
stumbles to Shake Shack, shotgunning a beer in every single casino we stepped foot into, riding the roller
coaster three times in a row at New York New York, trying to down as many bevies as humanly
possible at the open bar on the High Roller, followed by thinking we could all share a 100oz Porch
Pounder on the PBR Bar patio afterwards. (Big mistake. We learned the hard way that there is such a thing
as too much alcohol for one day). We also created a vlog while on this trip, so it’s always fun to
look back and remember how much fun we all had together.

If you were coming home from a day out on your own and you wanted

to surprise your significant other with a treat/drink/gift what would it be?

His answer: A bouquet of flowers and a bottle of Alyssa’s favorite wine
Her answer: Bud Light Limes

Current Binge Watch on your TV?

We’re currently binging Ozark, but when we aren’t watching that,

we are probably watching Friends or the latest true crime series.

Now for fun a little game like the shoe game at weddings.

Who is more of a goof?

Who is first to get up in the morning?
His answer: Alyssa
Her answer: Alyssa

And what are you most looking forward to on your wedding day

His answer: I can’t wait to see Alyssa walk down the aisle to me and see the look on her face.
I am also looking forward to hearing the insightful words that will come from Alyssa’s
father at the reception. He is one of the most inspirational people I’ve ever met in my life.
Her answer: Our first look before the ceremony. I am so excited for Cody to
see me in my dress and have a moment just the two of us to soak in our special day.
