Lethbridge Portrait & Wedding Photography & Design by Tanya Plonka

This October was Lethbridge’s 3rd Annual Zombie Walk, and we had a great turnout despite the cold. Many people brought along their little zombies this year, so our efforts to stress it was a family event were definitely not in vain! This may be surprising since I love photographing zombies, but I’m not a big fan of zombie movies – I’ve only seen several! I just thrive on photographing unusual things, and zombies are so full of textures and character and a hunger for brains… (more…)

Pilot Speed (formerly Pilate) recently returned to Lethbridge to play at Henotic and played an absolutely breathtaking show, as they always do. The crowd was unfortunately small, but completely wrapped up in the gorgeous music these guys made. I usually forget how great their music is until I hear them live, and then I get really addicted to them for a few weeks after. This is another band you should definitely check out! (more…)

Between having the flu and being super busy, I’ve been pretty neglectful of this blog lately! These photos are from waaaaay back in September, so you can expect a few more concert posts on the way.

Anyhow, these guys are called Zeus, and they are really cool! You should check them out! (more…)

Once again, it was a delight to see Beija Flor!
More photos follow…

The week of festivities begins! My friend Andrew (who you may recognize from the Turncoats) has been teaching in Japan for the majority of the past two years, and he is back for a short while to marry Julie! I am so excited for their wedding, but to start out this week Andrew pulled together a few of his musician friends and held a CD release party for his new solo album (which is pretty darn good!).

I spent one of my few wedding-free Saturdays at the Dragon Boat festival at Henderson Lake, and was so impressed with the entertainment all day! I’m embarrassed to say this was only my first time seeing Hippodrome… they are fantastic!
