Sara and Chris

She was composed, calm and serene. "Ready and excited to marry Chris" she said. He was ready and nervous, being harassed by his groomsmen who were all wishing they had printed their speeches earlier (when they had a printer around). "I'm going to cry" he said.

I was inspired before I even got to them, and was so excited to create images with them. "We get to make art today" I told Sara. It's a beautiful thing. He watched her walk down the isle with tears in his eyes and they exchanged heartfelt, emotional vows in front of all of the people who love them the most. Vertical blinds leaking light, a rose garden, beautiful home, amazing old cars and big full dark rain clouds that waited to release the rain until my last portrait was taken (last one in series here).

In one word. Magic. It was the perfect day for Sara and Chris to be married. It just was.. May you two be surrounded by blessings, always.

Rob and Veronica

Okay, Auntie Marie, Karyn, Tara and mom... here is a new blog post!

Hopefully I will satisfy your photographic hunger with Rob and Veronica... and try and get a few more up here this week as well!

Its been an interesting few weeks. To be honest, I've wanted to be curled up in bed most of the time. (more on that later) I believe I've shot 20 weddings so far this season. Which means, I'm trying my hardest to stay rested and away from cameras as much as possible, until the next wedding... so I can stay fresh and full of creativity. So Sunday/Monday amounted to Bryce and I being the laziest I think we've ever even been. It was awesome. However, back to work today.

Meet Rob and Veronica. They booked me over a year and a half ago for their August 1st wedding. I was thrilled to be a part of it. They were all so much fun, had an amazing time laughing and making fun of each other and their happiness is infectious. What a great day!

Love this one of Veronica waiting to get into her dress. A float down stairs At Painters Lodge in Campbell River, Rob waits patiently. Kisses for Veronica's niece Sienna (who you may recall from this post) A brief and intimate ceremony results in a happy bride and groom. Love this 'just married' image. We snuck off for some wedding party shots, the guys... hilarious. The ladies? Stunning. Then we stow away with the newlyweds for some more intimate images of the two of them, on their wedding day. And then, onwards to the reception held at Sequoia Springs Golf Course. For some more wonderful moments. A father/daughter dance that had me in tears (and Veronica too). And I'll leave you with this image of a beautiful bride on her wedding day.
