Karpan’s Engagement Session at Andrew, Alberta | Edmonton Engagement Photographer
Marko & Kimberly | Their Story <3
There was recently a fire in Fort McMurray. A similar fire had happened in Fort McMurray almost five years ago! Kimberly and Marko met during that time. Marko, being a heavy duty mechanic, was off work for the duration of the fire and spent a lot of time in Edmonton. It was during this time that the flame of love got kindled! (Isn’t that kinda poetic?).
Following this, this couple kept their relationship going for a solid five years. During April, 2016 Marko decided it was time Kimberly became his partner in crime for everything. He whipped up an awesome proposal plan that moved as follows:
- During the day, Kimberly and Marko were walking when they saw a bench near Concordia University (this will come into play later!).
- Marko and Kimberly went out for a date to the Keg. As per the plan, everything was the same as the first date they had ever had. From the parking spot to the booth they sat in. They had both dressed up.
- Kimberly had no idea a ring was coming.
- Remember the bench from point 1? After dinner they went down there and Marko played a song (from their first week of dating!). They danced together right there near the bench! By this point Kimberly knew the ring was coming!
- It had gotten dark by this point. Marko got on his knee and presented a ring in a ring box with a light inside the box (how cool is that!). The light shone on the diamond. Kimberly said yes and they are getting married next month! Here are a couple of shots of the ring:
Why Andrew of all places?
During our consultation, I asked Kimberly, where did she want to have her engagement session. She mentioned a family farm near Andrew and I was sold instantly. It was quite a drive through the back roads but it was totally worth it in the end. This location represented sentimental value to Kimberly as she had played on this farm and on the tractors as a child!
As per our commitment to capturing piece of art threaded with our clients’ memories, we ensured that we created some amazing portraits for this couple!
You like flowers? Us too!
Kimberly also happens to be a florist in Edmonton and a vendor we often work with. Her floral knowledge is beyond amazing and her mastery of creating masterful floral pieces is quite cool! We did a feature of her business a while ago that can be found here: Best Buds Flowers.
Given her expertise with flowers, they had to be a part of the engagement session and they will definitely be a large part of the wedding as well!
Here is a small snippet of their engagement session in the form of a slideshow:

At one point, I had to take a shot where a small tree was blocking my view. As such, Marco being awesome guys that he was, picked up an ax and chopped down the tree… I just stood there stunned having never wielded an ax myself. There were definitely a lot of mosquitoes involved buy beyond that this session was amazing!
