{31st Dec 2012}
2012 has been a year of new beginnings, the kind that marks the beginning of fulfillment of long term dreams. It was also the year that saw the end of several things in our lives: end of living in the UK as we emigrated to Canada, end of my Engineering role in UK after over 7 years due to the Canadian move but certainly not an end to the friendships that we started there. We don’t do subtle hints and so have asked and are expecting those friends to visit us in Edmonton, Alberta soon! Needless to say, we’re too excited about welcoming our families to our new Canadian home.
Our unending thanks to our families and friends for all their help with our move and for the continuing belief in us.
It was also the year of long-overdue reunions, self-discovery & increased enthusiasm for travel & food photography.
We are truly grateful for all our lovely Clients and for the wedding vendors that we got to work with in 2012. Such a massive pleasure to work with you all, you were all very inspiring!
We are also very happy that our work has been featured on Munaluchi Bridal Magazine, Rock n Roll Bride, Love My Dress, Bridal Musings, Wedding Nouveau, b.loved and many more!
We have already started making new friends here in Canada and we hope to continue making more friends and meet more wedding vendors here. So if you’re based in or near Edmonton, Alberta or know anyone that is, then feel free to contact us as we love meeting and working with new people.
Onto 2013, we are full of hope for our new life in Canada, continued gratitude & love of our family, friends & all things photographic.

Adrian & I went to Downtown Edmonton with some more new friends and discovered some beautiful winter sunlight in the bus station of all places…

We are Funmi and Adrian, Edmonton engagement and wedding photographers. Did you know? We’ll take photographs of you even if you aren’t getting married! We bring our style of not-too-posed photographing to your individual or family portrait. And we love events!
