Matt & Justine are Married – Hessenland Country Inn

Posted in Weddings

Matt and Justine had a gorgeous wedding the first Saturday in June.  Simple, classy and a wonderful celebration of two people in love.  If you like to see their slideshow you can do so by clicking here.. or download it free from my itunes store. My day started out in Bayfield with Matt & the guys… who after several attempts managed to get the perfect knot into everyone’s tie.

 

Next I headed to Grand Bend to catch up with Justine and the girls.  Justine’s beautiful gown was from Nicholas & Elizabeth’s bridal in London.  Really lovely.

Her gorgeous bouquet of peonies and roses was from Village Vines in Exeter.  It smelled amazing!  So pretty.

The we were off to Hessenland for the ceremony and reception.  I absolutely love this shot of Matt and Justine when the first see each other as her Dad gives her away.

Wayne from Kettle Creek Weddings did a wonderful job of their ceremony… and then we headed off for some photos.

Then it was time for a party!

Justine and Matt you had a wonderful wedding!  I wish you a lifetime of happiness!!  Cheers, Sandra!

Darrell & Jen – Engaged!

Posted in Engagement Photos

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!

Jason & Caylan – Married!

Posted in Weddings

To say the day was perfect would be a lie.  You see Caylan had been planning and hoping for an outdoor ceremony in Hessenland’s beautiful gardens for over a year.  Last week her facebook status was very clear  ”I don’t care if they say about rain being good luck – if it rains on Saturday I will be deeply disappointed” – and needless to say rain it did.   When I arrived  to see Caylan get ready there were a few tears.  We did manage to get outside and take some portraits of her and the girls.  While we were out on the lawn her mood seemed to visibly change as she came to the certain truth that whether the day was “perfect” or not the man she was about to marry was and really, that’s all that mattered.  The rain started just as the ceremony was about to begin so we moved in doors in to the cozy and inviting coach house.  The ceremony was really beautiful and you could tell the Jason & Caylan had put a lot of thought into it.  Soon after the ceremony was finished, the clouds parted and we ventured outside once again for photos.  I think all in all, even though their wedding day wasn’t maybe exactly like they dreamed it would be the love they share and the family and friends they had around them to celebrate with made their day wonderful just the same!  You can click here to start their slideshow, or download it free in itunes.

Eamon & Melissa – Married

Posted in Weddings

Friday was a perfect day for a wedding…. I may be a bit biased, being it was my own wedding anniversary, but it really was a lovely day.???When I first met with Melissa last fall to talk about their wedding, Eamon was serving in Afganistan.? I want to send a big shout to all of our soldiers and their wives and families who sacrifice so much for all of us.? I can’t image how hard their months apart must have been, which is part of what made Friday’s celebration so wonderful.? The love between these two is so obvious you can’t help but smile when you see them together.? You can click here to start their slideshow, or download it free in itunes.? In the meantime here are a few of my favourite shots of their wedding.

Brian & Natalie – Married!

Posted in Weddings

Friday evening I had the privilege of capturing Natalie & Brian exchange their wedding vows at Hessenland. ?Natalie is an amazing local florist who does some of the most creative work I have ever seen. ?She is very hip and has an amazing eye, so I was very flattered when she asked me to capture this big day for them. ? I’ve gotten to know Nat fairly well over the last few years and she is incredibly ambitious and hard working…. which was very evident when you say the amount of time and energy she put into decorating for her own wedding. ?It was by far and away the most beautiful hall I have seen. ?You can check out Natalie’s website at www.villagevinesflorists.com. ?As always Wilma & Tara at Bridal Elegance did a fabulous job of finding a dress that was perfect for the bride. ?Here are a few of my favourite photos – you can see the slideshow here, or download it free in itunes and watch it on your ipod!

Nathan & Mandy – Married!!

Posted in Weddings

The forecast on Saturday was anything but favourable – 90% chance of showers with heavy rain starting late in the morning and ending in the evening…. not exactly what you hope for when you plan a garden wedding.? I started my day off by meeting up with Nathan & the groomsmen and when I arrived it was RAINING… not just a little either – the kind of rain where you wait in your car for it to quit before you get out rain. Much to everyones surprise the skys seemed to clear and low and behold by the time I got to Mandy and the ladies it was completely sunny!? I don’t know what kind of prayers Mandy said that morning, but they certainly seemed to work!? I know that rain or shine Mandy & Nathan would have had a lovely wedding, but having the sunshine down on them for their ceremony in the beautiful gardens at Hessenland was certainly an added bonus.? I loved how their flowers (by?The Garden Gate) matched the flowerbeds in the gardens.? It was perfect!? Anyway, enough of my ramblings… on to the good stuff – the photos.? You can also see their slideshow by clicking here or download it free in itunes!
