Tying the Knot

The first weekend of this month was the season's first formal wedding; I ended up being with the clients all day, from 9 am with the girls getting their hair and makeup done right to midnight when the reception was just getting into party mode, so by the end I was pretty exhausted, but excited to have been a part of it all. The bride Sarah and I met in public school (we even were in Girl Guides together when we were younger) so our families have known each other for a while, and it was nice that I already had a great comfort level with everyone. Plus her now-hubby Taylor is such a genuinely nice guy it was hard not to be happy around them, and all their family & friends. The ceremony and reception took place at the beautiful Nottawasaga Inn, and we made a short trip to the nearby heritage house of Sir Frederick Banting for some couple shots afterwards. It was a day full of love, laughter and tears, as well as a learning experience when shooting a full day wedding! :)

 

Summer's Last Fire

Sometimes it's nice to take a break from paid jobs & I have been doing so many weddings lately, so I got together with my friend Nicole, who is a visual artist and model in her spare time. This summer I had acquired a few vintage dresses but had yet to use them for a shoot, so Nicole and I decided a fun creative session was in order. We spent the day in and around Creemore at a few of my abandoned locations getting some amazing shots of her with the brilliant red/pink hair colour she's currently rocking.

In-Between

By the recent lack of updates, you'd think I was on hiatus from photog-ing but its actually the opposite. I have been crazy busy with weddings the last few weeks, but I make it a point to let the clients see their photos before posting online. So at the moment I am up to my eyeballs in wedding edits, as well I have an upcoming meeting with the ad executive from the local "Itz Your Day Wedding Guide" publication. I am hoping they want to do a feature on me as fresh new wedding photographer in the area. Wish me luck! :)
