This wedding capped my wedding season in the best way possible.  What a fantastic wedding! These two are so in love… and they have the CUTEST little daughter Jessica… wow, so perfect!  The most difficult part of this wedding was trying to limit the number of pictures to put in this post.  Be warned there are many.  But this wedding was full of amazingness.  Including my amazing second shooter for the day, Deanna McCollum!

Introducing little Jessica!  Look at Sarah and Jessica’s faces! You can tell how much they love each other.

I can’t handle all the cuteness!  Jessica was a flower girl during the ceremony (one of three little cuties).  Hence the cutie pie dress!

Hot tamale bride and hot tamale bridesmaids to boot!

One of my FAVOURITE moments of the wedding.  This was Ian’s face as he saw his daughter come down the aisle as a flower girl.  Ian is so genuine.  He lives in the moment.  You could see the love on his face and in his eyes.  He welled up a little bit more when he saw Sarah come down the aisle.  It was difficult for me to hold it together too.  But great to be a part of!

“Hi daddy!”  You can see Jessica stealing the hearts of the whole crowd

If you have not already fallen in love with this couple, take a look at this.  Another favourite of mine.  I love this shot because every face in this photo is full of joy!  I feel like the luckiest person in the world to get such awesome clients!

Sarah… such a stunningly beautiful bride.

You can see how much he loves her.  I love that.

Sarah and Ian had their wedding at the Brentwood Bay College School.  Definitely a new venue for me, but a really beautiful place.

Oh thank you beautiful late October weather!  Didn’t expect you but it was sure nice of you to show up!

Sarah and Ian had such a west coast style wedding, including water bottles as favours, plants in recycled tin cans, saplings as favours, and a tree theme throughout!  Every table was named after a tree you can find locally.

And their first dance was to “Your Song” by Elton John.  This couple is so cool!

And last but not least… you see, Ian is a rock star.  For real.  He and his band (that included some groomsmen and the MC) got on their kick ass stage they had at the reception and played a set of songs.  They were soooo good!  In fact, Ian even recorded two songs before the wedding that were played during the ceremony.  This party was outstanding.  Ian’s band was phenomenal, and so was the other band they hired for the night.

I hope to blog their photobooth soon… also too good!  Thank you SO much Sarah and Ian!  I had a blast with both of you! Much love!

 

Oh, I loved this wedding! Nicole and Reuven were so lovely.  There was so much emotion on this day, it was hard not to cry myself!  There was the love of the couple and the love of their friends and family… and the hand of fate was also on their side!  After a rainy start to the day, the clouds parted just in time for the photo session.  The leaves were so alive with colour.  It was October 22 and what a most perfect wedding day it was.  And I believe things turned out so well because it was so genuine.  Thank you so very much Nicole and Reuven for letting me be a part of your gorgeous day!

Special thanks to Tracy Risinger for second shooting for me!!

Nicole, you are absolutely stunning and you have killer legs!

I am thrilled to be back to blogging all the awesomeness that was in the rest of my year.  First up was the wedding of Kathleen and Shawn.  This was such a lovely wedding and a relatively new experience for me – I only met them the day before the wedding!  Turns out their original photographer had an emergency and I was lucky enough to be chosen by the couple as the new photographer!  Even though it was unusual for me, it couldn’t have turned out better.  They were SO sweet and ultimately, it worked very well becuase they were so in love.  When I can feel that, I know we will be a good match.  On top of that, Kathleen’s dad stands out as one of the kindest and most loving fathers I have seen at a wedding.  The wedding party was outstandingly funny, gorgeous, and also cared about the couple so deeply. Shawn’s face when he saw Kathleen coming down the aisle was priceless.  He could not stop smiling.  Shawn, you are awesome.  And Kathleen, are you kidding me?!?!  You are so amazingly beautiful.

The lovely wedding was at Olympic View Golf Club, with amazing decor from Details Event Planning and Decor.  I would like to thank Tracy Risinger for second shooting with me that day!
