A Short Season of Beauty and Memories


Every spring, Edmonton surprises us with delicate bursts of pink and white the arrival of cherry blossoms. Though our season is brief compared to other parts of the world, the magic it brings is unforgettable. As photographers, we find this to be one of the most inspiring and emotional times of the year.


Cherry blossoms, or sakura, symbolize renewal and the fleeting nature of beauty. Spring and cherry blossoms are beautiful in most places across Canada from Vancouver's famed blossom festivals to Ottawa’s floral parks but Edmonton holds its own unique charm during this short season. These trees bloom for just a few days, creating soft, floral canopies perfect for photography.


We've been lucky to document maternity sessions, family moments, romantic couples, portraits, and even wedding-style shoots under the blossoms and each session feels like a visual poem.
