Our Story
The Beginning of Our Wedding Video & Photo Journey
Story and Pictures
Introduction
Once upon a time, a couple deeply in love with each other and with life decided to start a Wedding Video & Photo studio together. They had a shared passion for adventure and experience, and enjoyed capturing moments and memories to look back on. They wanted to offer their services to other couples to help preserve some of the most important days of their lives.They developed their style, their portfolio, and worked hard to put themselves out there.
“We are making photographs to understand what lives mean to us.” -Ralf Hattersley
The Next Chapter
Their business started off in Vancouver BC, but quickly grew and they were soon photographing dozens of weddings all over BC, Alberta and even abroad to Budapest. Their enthusiasm and creativity brought a unique and special charm to every wedding they worked. They loved capturing the joy and emotion of each wedding and working with the happy couples to make their day fantastic.
Moving to the mountains
As their business and their family grew, they decided it was time to move their venture to a different city. Calgary seemed like the perfect fit.
Once they arrived in Calgary they were met with an excited clientele, (both locally and coming from afar) who wanted to celebrate their wedding day in the beautiful landscapes Alberta has to offer. Sweet Currant Video & Photo had made it to the mountains.
“You don’t make a photograph just with a camera. You bring to the act of photography all the pictures you have seen, the books you have read, the music you have heard, the people you have loved.” ― Ansel Adams
Looking To The Future
Watching their family grow, it really hit home how the precious moments of life can be so fleeting. This awareness kept the embers of passion for their business burning, and they added family and adventure based photography to their services. How the story ends is yet to be written, but the journey itself has been incredibly rewarding.
