This should be a fun wedding where I will know a lot of people… Julie and Sam are very good friends of my sister and her husband. Julie was actually the maid of honour at my sister’s wedding in Mexico a few years back and it will be my sister’s turn to take that role next June. They are planning a pink and pearl wedding ; I’m sure it will look absolutely beautiful!

Click here for the first look at some highlights of the wedding.

Full story/photos to come later on my blog; make sure to check back here in a few weeks!

I won’t go into too much details as to how the day unfolded, as I believe the images will tell the story. However, I must mention how Rachel and Jason were an amazing couple to work with. From the very first time we met, it just clicked. We then went on to the engagement session where we learned more about each other and developed our relationship even further. Came the big day and it was like shooting the wedding of good friends. They made me feel very welcomed and part of the family! As cliché as it may sound, I really want to thank Rachel and Jason for inviting me to their special day and capturing these moments for them. It was truly an amazing day!

Now on to the photos! I know there are lots, but I just couldn’t cut it down even more! Enjoy!

Annie and Maxime are planning a fall 2012 wedding and I’m sure it’s going to be amazing! Until then, enjoy the e-session!

I’d like to thank everyone who was involved in the project. Without everyone’s help, this would not have turned out the way it did!

I’m also looking forward to the wedding for a few reasons: new venue (for me), winter wedding and great people! As much as we don’t like the snow, Christina and I are hopping for lots of it before the wedding so we can shoot outdoors!

Anyone else had a winter wedding with lots of snow?!

When I was exchanging emails with Jenny to find a date for the session, I wrote to her something along these lines: Did you have a look/location in mind for the shoot? And then, to my surprise, I got this response (or something like it!): “we were thinking about doing it in our backyard. lol”. She then went on explaining how there was a field, interesting buildings and the beach. Ehhh… YEAH! While Jenny thought it was funny and asking what I thought of the idea, I was already looking forward to the session. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the “typical” places I usually shoot, but it’s always fun (for me!) to see change and it just makes the session that more special for the couple. So remember, if you are planning locations for your shoot, think about what inspires you, what you love, what makes you YOU.

First on the list of things to blog was Daniel and Francine’s wedding. Now I normally explain a bit how the day went, fun things that happened along the way, etc., but it had been so long since their wedding I didn’t even know where to start! However, looking back through the full set and picking out a few highlights from the day, I quickly remembered what a great day it was. Like every wedding, it was full of love, laughs and happiness. That doesn’t mean the wedding was like any other… Like I always say, each wedding is unique on its own because of the people who are a part of it. And as always, I was lucky to be surrounded by people who made the day fly by!

I’m really excited to be showing these highlights from Francine and Daniel’s wedding. I hope you enjoy them, and don’t worry, I will make an effort to blog before another 3 months pass, that’s a promise!
