As some of you will know, our family recently suffered a great loss. My father, Brian Cleary, passed away on Remembrance Day. He was an incredible person, and a strong supporter of Shandro Photo and everything we have worked to accomplish.  Even in the midst of his illness, he was so interested in our business, and seeing our latest work, hearing about our couples, and listening to our wedding day stories.  It gave him hope to know there was so much beauty and happiness in the world, and that we are a part of it.  His passing has made all the more obvious how important family is.

We had been planning a holiday special for a while now, and with my dad’s passing we wanted to make it something meaningful.

So here it is: for all weddings booked between now and January 31st (my dad’s birthday) you will receive 5% off, and Shandro Photo will be donating 5% to the Edmonton Cross Cancer Society in honour of Brian Cleary.

Visit our Wedding Collection Page for details of our wedding collections or contact us for more information.

It is a great chance for you to work with us and also something that we can do together to help other families who need support.  If you are a previous client or just someone visiting this blog, we encourage you to donate to the Cross Cancer Society in his honour this holiday season.

I would personally like to thank everyone who has called, sent flowers, emailed, and left messages on Facebook.  It’s a really hard time in our lives, and we are so touched that so many people are around us to support us.

A pictures is indeed worth a thousand words.  This photo of me and my dad is one of my favourites. It’s just us.  I love you dad, and I’ll miss you.

We had the pleasure of meeting the Miles family this fall for family photos. Dr. Miles runs the Smile Spot, an orthodontics clinic in south Edmonton, and wanted a photo of his boys for his office and home.  Thanks to Britt & Cody for passing our name along!

If you’re feeling a bit chilly here in Edmonton at this time of year, this post will help warm your heart. I have a much more comprehensive post of this incredible destination wedding coming in 2010 but I absolutely had to share a few tonight.

I’ll tell you all the story soon about how Amita & Abhee found us, and the amazing cruise we just returned from, but here are a few memories from Mexico.

Merry Christmas everyone! We’re taking a brief break for the holidays but will be back hard at work in 2010.

Ritu & Amit are friends of Renu & Garry’s (awesome clients from earlier this year) and we were delighted when they contacted us about maternity photos! Really soon they are going to find out if they are welcoming a little boy or a little girl. These pictures are in the nursery for when he or she arrives.

Congratulations! We can’t wait to meet your little one. It’s going to be one good looking baby!
