When time stands still….

Over the weekend, I was honored to capture images of Erin and Todd’s wedding at Tigh-na-mara in Parksville. Beautiful weather, STUNNING Bride, handsome groom, beautiful children everywhere… what more could I possibly ask for.

I don’t know why I rarely post the very candid moments from weddings, especially as they are usually my favorites. It is the photojournalist in me, that longs to just stay amidst the crowd and capture people as they truly are. The honest moments between a mother and her baby girl, within friendships, the truth behind the story, the looks, the glances, the laughter and even more beautiful the swollen silences. A fathers pride, a child’s innocence, a brides hopeful eyes… all moments that make my work, not even work at all. I have included some of my favorite moments from Erin and Todd’s amazing wedding.

Make my day… leave a comment… I dare you.

Cody and Alicia

Cody and Alicia were magic from the start.
You may remember them from our engagement session (in the pouring rain), they were so much fun then… and were even more amazing on their wedding day!
I have no idea how, but I do believe I am blessed with having the most amazing couples… ever.

Their wedding took place at the Tigh-Na-Mara Resort in Parksville, and everything was flawless. On my way driving down, (in the pouring rain) I just somehow trusted that the weather would co-operate for them. The clouds were out, but parted, when Alicia and her dad walked down the isle.

She was absolutely radiant!

Cody confessed before the ceremony, that he wasn’t nervous at all, just so excited to see Alicia walk down the isle. He said, he knew she was going to look incredible… the tears in his eyes, proved that he was overwhelmed when he saw her. I believe everyone was!

It was such a beautiful day, with such amazing people. I feel completely blessed to have been given the honor of photographing such an important event in Cody and Alicia’s lives. You two are amazing, and I wish you a lifetime of laughter, blue skies and mountains of love.
