Today’s post is totally fun. Scream at the top of your lungs FUN. Last month, Edmonton’s annual carnival, Capital Ex was the set of Sarah + Patrick’s engagement session and it was captured by Picture That Photography. The location is only fitting since their wedding is carnival themed. I can’t wait to see it! And can I just say kudos to the couple because if I was asked to ride on a roller coaster, I’m pretty sure the pictures wouldn’t be so pretty. Needless to say, I love this shoot!


Says Susan of Picture That: They loved the fun feel of Capital X for their engagement photos, and these would match their carnival themed wedding! We rode on the rides with them photographing them having fun. Patrick got a little sick after going upside down on the roller coaster, but was a trooper the entire time and didn’t tell us until the end of the session!

How cute is this? I wish I had thought of it myself! I can’t believe the photographer rode the rides with them snapping the pictures….what a brave soul!

P.S. (I am seriously contemplating taking my husband to a carnival and getting a shot of us like the one where the couple is holding a bunch of balloons, just for fun!)
