Lethbridge Portrait & Wedding Photography & Design by Tanya Plonka

On New Years Day I took a very brave Kelsie out for some winter photos. Henderson Lake, the Lethbridge location normally most overrun with wedding and portrait photographers, was absolutely barren except for a jogger and an unfortunate man stuck in a snowbank, trying to dig his vehicle out… oh, and us fools! It started to snow just as we left Kelsie’s house, which added such a gorgeous haze to the background of the photos. (I won’t complain about how long it took to Photoshop the snow flecks off of Kelsie.)

I still have two more sets of Zombie Pinups to go through, but that might not even happen until next year… but at least for now, here are Dylan’s zombie photos! She brought along two lovely outfits, and this was the most public location I’ve done these yet – right on one of the busiest streets in Lethbridge, by the mall, and in the park. It proved my point that when people encounter strange things, they pretend they don’t see anything! Only one woman was brave enough to ask, and that was only because she recognized me from the cover the Lethbridge Herald the week before from the Zombie Walk :P

As you can see, I am a little behind in editing a few sets of photos… these zombie pinups of Meaghan were done back in August! Good grief, Tanya! At the moment I am caught up on everything but my website redesign, and I am severely procrastinating on it. In a way this is good, because I finished this set!

I am seriously bad for posting these because I am supposed to be working on other things and be in bed, but I couldn’t wait! Back when I did zombie pinups of Cassandra I noticed she is an awesome model (willing to climb all over and create her own poses) so today I finally did some “normal” photos of her, returning to the same location where we had done her zombie photos!

No, I am not caught up with my old zombie pinups, but it was so warm this week! And Becca was out of work with an injured ankle, so we HAD to get this done!!

I still don’t have time to go through my recent zombie pinups before I leave for vacation, but here is a teaser! A couple from each of the shoots. Thanks to Cassandra, Meaghan, and Dylan for being my undead models!
