It was more than a year ago when I met with Justin & Amy and they asked me to capture their wedding.  It seemed like it was so far away, and now here it is in just a few short weeks!  We decided to meet up in Goderich.  Amy and I had chatted about a few different ideas before we got together.  Amy I hoped I managed to capture things just the way you wanted.   I think you both look great and I can’t wait to work with you again soon!

I love love love engagement sessions.  They are such a great thing for both me and couple to get to know one another and have some fun taking photos.  I find it makes the wedding day run so much smoother when the bride and groom know what to expect and realize (especially for the groom) that photos can be fun.  It should never be a painful thing to get your photo taken!  Enough of of my rant…. this past weekend I had so much fun hanging out in Goderich with Brad & Meredith.  They are such a great couple.  The started dating way back in grade 10 and now that they are almost done University they are starting to plan the next stage of their life together.  Brad will be finishing up school the week before they get married next August so there is a lot of ground to cover yet, but I know that these two will get through it no problem!We met in Goderich at the Library.  Goderich has some wonderful old buildings, but the library is certainly one of my favourties.

I love how Meredith’s face lights up!  So pretty!

We also made a quick stop at one of the old train stations in town.

And then we headed down to the beach for a few shots as well.

All in all it made for a really fun afternoon!  Congrats Meredith & Brad – I can’t wait to shoot your wedding next summer!

Jen had emailed me back in December to see about getting some engagement photos in the snow.  We set a date for early January and boy oh boy snow it did…. snow and wind and basically an all out blizzard.  We decided to reschedule for February…. hoping for snow, but not quite that much snow.   Mother Nature decided yet again to drop down lots of white stuff, but the wind was a bit more friendly so we decided to give it a shot.  It was so much fun (and a bit cold I might add)!  We met up at one of my favourite country locations – my in-laws farm – and tromped around to capture these.  Meet Jen & Darrell

When I started editing through there photos I first thought the next photo was a mistake.  With all those flurries in the air, my autofocus lens was having a hard time keeping it’s focus on Jen & Darrell…. but after looking again I decided I quite liked this “mistake”.

Love this shot!  Jen has such a great smile!

I hope you had a fabulous Valentine’s date after our shoot!  It was so much fun to work with both of you!  So looking forward to your wedding at Hessenland in July when the temperatures will be a lot more friendly!

I’ve know Jodie since highschool.  We had a lot of the same classes and both played in concert band.  We’ve seen each other here and there over the years but it had been a while.  I was so excited when she stopped by my studio to tell me she was engaged!  I had the pleasure of meeting up with her and Shane in Bayfield a few weekends back for an engagement session.  Here are a few of my favourites from our time together.

I can’t wait for their beautiful fall wedding at Ben Miller Inn next year!

A great big SORRY to Erin & Josh and their wedding party for not posting this sooner.  All my adventures in October certainly put a hamper on my blogging.  Way back at the end of September I had the pleasure of hanging out with Erin & Josh and their wedding party in Grand Bend for an afternoon.    Erin & Josh are the first couple I’ve had ask me if they could include their wedding party in their engagement session.  They both thought it would be fun to get all their friends together and for them all to have a chance to meet and work with me a little bit before their big day.  I thought it was a great idea, so they all piled into a motorhome and made their way from Stratford to Grand Bend on a nice sunny Sunday afternoon.  It was great fun to meet them all and hang out.  Here are a few of my favourite shots from our session.  Looking forward to seeing you all again in 260 days!

It was a great weekend!  We had so much fun with the wedding and all the festivities.  This week we are on to being tourists.  Today we are driving down to Manly to take the ferry into Sydney.  We want to see all the sites…. AND – I’m also going to take some engagement photos for one of my cousins who here attending teachers college with his fiance.  Looking forward to seeing Jeff & Leah!  Then tomorrow we are off to the Hunter Valley which is a wine region for a couple of days.   Here’s a photo from yesterday out on our deck.  I assure you no telephoto lense is needed.. these little guys are very brave.
