Back in snowy March I had a great time with Heidi and Brandon shooting their engagement session. It was just as much fun to do the pictures for their wedding. They were delighted to be starting their marriage and it was delightful to be a part of that. It was a beautiful day in Carleton and we headed to Ellenwood Provincial Park for some pictures after the ceremony. Other than a heckler swimming in the lake, trying to photobomb a couple of the pictures, it was perfect. Their friends and families were just as excited for them as they were to be getting married. Congratulations again Heidi and Brandon! [blogshow id=4799 player=0 autoplay=0 toolbar=1]
Wedding
Caroline and Derek - Digby, Nova Scotia wedding photography
Caroline and Derek's wedding came at the end of a very hot, humid stretch of weather. The heat didn't dampen anyone's enthusiasm though on their wedding day. Their wedding was at the beautiful Digby Pines Resort and the wedding reflected the glamorous setting. Caroline and Derek are both warmhearted, caring people. All through the day they were making sure the people around them were feeling comfortable and doing what they could to make sure their guests were enjoying the day. Congratulations again Caroline and Derek! [blogshow id=4783 player=0 autoplay=0 toolbar=1]
Megan and Julian - Yarmouth, Nova Scotia Wedding Photography
Megan and Julian are really good friends of ours. We've shared a lot of meals and played a lot of board games together. They're two of the most intelligent, thoughtful, and compassionate people that I've ever met. When they let me know that they would like me to do their pictures, they also wanted me to know that if I preferred I could just come as a guest instead, which I thought was really considerate. I'm really glad that I decided to be their photographer. It was really special to be able to be the one capturing the moments of their wedding. The wedding was perfect. Megan and Julian met because of music and music was a big part of their wedding. There was a cello quartet made up of Julian's family members and a five piece brass band that played for the ceremony. One of Megan's family also played guitar and sang. The brass band played for cocktail hour on the lawn and the cellos were back to accompany Julian's sister-in-law singing at the reception. The day wrapped up with an 18 piece swing orchestra playing for the dance. It was incredibly beautiful, and fun, and perfectly suited to their day. There were so many personal touches, from the handmade decorations to Julian's brother baking the cake.

Laura and James - White Point Beach Wedding Photography
It can take a while to figure out what home means you. I think it has a lot to do with knowing what's on other side of that next hill. Seeing Laura and James together on their wedding day, it was really easy to see that they've found home in each other. They fill each other up with love, and strength, and peace, and joy. They know that what's over that next hill is the next adventure they'll take together. Here's a peek at some of the pictures from their wedding day at White Point Beach. Even though it rained off and on through the day, the sun was out long enough for the ceremony to happen outside overlooking the beach (and for us to get some pictures). There was a perfect White Point moment when a pure white baby rabbit hopped up the aisle to hang around at Laura and James' feet. Congratulations again to Laura and James!

Tiffany and Dan - Yarmouth, Nova Scotia Wedding Photography
As the saying goes, you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone. Or in this case, until the boy across the street is having a moving away bash. Tiffany and Dan grew up across the street from one another but didn't start to get to know each other until Dan was moving away. A few years later and they're back on the same street, getting married in Dan's parents' beautiful back yard. It was a beautiful day full of lots of love and emotion. You can see some of their pictures below or follow this link to check out their slideshow. [blogshow id=471e player=0 autoplay=0 toolbar=1]
