Kira Nelson Photography Blog bio picture

Welcome to my blog.

I grew up playing for endless hours in wheat fields, and abandoned barns, exploring the vast expanse of my childhood farm.  Inevitably this lead to a life filled with adventure, fun and a lot of imagination.   All of my adventures have found their way into the expression of my photography and I love being able to express myself and my view of the world through the lens of my camera.  

I am inspired by fashion, as well as vintage & nostalgic surroundings... mixed with my unique style my images are young, fresh, fun and modern.

If you would like to get in front of my camera, and create images that are uniquely you, feel free to  shoot me an email.  I can't wait to hear from you!

Cheers!
Kira Nelson

Crystal + Marc : Engaged

I met Crystal a few years ago when I photographed one of her Clients weddings.  Some of you may know Crystal from past weddings on the blog, she is the Genius Wedding Planner behind RSVP Event Design right here in Saskatoon.  I was so honored to be asked to shoot her very own wedding, and cannot wait to see what she has in store.   I met her and Marc and their fabulous home to shoot some winter engagement photos…  We had a blast and I can’t wait to shoot again there on their big day.

She joked with Coleen her very best friend…  “if only I could meet a guy that could make me laugh, and even make standing in long line-ups more bearable…that would be a bonus!”
Fast forward to their first date…Crystal and Marc, spent the entire evening talking, laughing and joking around and as their friendship deepened. On their first trip together, as they stood in the long security line-up,  he passed the test making her laugh and forget about her lineup frustrations… with this Crystal thought to herself, I think I found the one!
As time went on and  the minutes turned to hours, and hours into days, they grew to love each other more and more.

Crystal just returned from Vegas for some wedding shopping.  And along the way just happened to pick up this fabulous pair of Christian Louboutins…

We set outside for a few shots in the snow.  We should really send these shots in to the Louboutins website, as Crystal rocked them on the slippery snow!Crystal-&-Mark-Engagement-81Crystal-&-Mark-Engagement-90
