Anita & Brad...

Last Saturday we had a wonderful time spending the day with Brad, Anita, family and friends. This couple is absolutely adorable and they have many people who love them. We had a ball documenting their day for them. Their wedding had us smiling all the way through from the comments at the ceremony from the pulpit to the friends showing off on the dance floor late in the evening. I was soo grateful for our answered prayers for nice weather. The girls found it a bit chilly but the sun was so much better than drizzly.Thank you both for including us in your day!

Omari has been updating our computer storage systems this week so my work has fallen a bit more behind. I do not have a slideshow up for this couple yet as I am still downloading their pics tonight! I did grab 3 pics that stood out right away from one of the cards to show here as I know there are people anxious to see some images. I have a very busy weekend ahead with a wedding here on Saturday and a wedding in Ontario on Sunday. I will not be back in town until pretty late Monday night. Sooo, if I get a chance I will try to put the show together before I head off but if I don't get that moment - it will be after I get back - 1st thing on my agenda :)

Meeting Mia

Last night I had the privledge to meet Mia - she is the newest addition to Don and Jaz's family. What a great job I have when I get to watch a family grow out the love a couple shares with one another! Omari and I had the honor to photograph Don and Jaz's wedding awhile back and they are such an adorable couple. Jaz looks great having just had Mia not long ago! I wish my body had whipped back into shape so easily :) There were way too many great images to chose from so here are just a couple.

The weekend...

On Saturday I attended one of my cousins wedding ceremony - I wasn't the "official" photographer but I still took a bunch of pics from the pew and stayed out of the way :) I don't have a model release so I won't download any images here but I must say that I am proud of the work I got even though I was in the stands LOL.

I had the opportunity to spend a bit of time on Sunday with Amy, Craig and their puppies. We did a great little e-session out on their friends acreage. There are way too many great pics to choose from - I am putting up 3 from the bunch that I like the best.

Yesterday I also met with a great couple that we booked for a wedding next year. To let everyone know for our contest info - that was wedding number 92!
Also for anyone considering us for next year's weddings we are about half booked for the summer already. 2008 couples just seem to be on that ball and getting their decisions made quick. There is only one open Saturday in August left now.
Family portrait season has also begun - give me a call if you're interested in catching the good weather before it is gone. I believe fall is coming up on us pretty quick if you're linked to me in facebook, I will be sending out a special to my "friends".
Tomorrow I will be doing some "belly" shots with a past portrait couple as they are expecting their 2nd child. I am very excited to try out some ideas that I have floating around in my head...I hope they will sign a model release so I can share them online.

Heather and Travis

On Saturday we spent a beautiful day with Heather and Travis while they celebrated their love. Heather looked radiant in a dress made by her mother-in-law to be. The ceremony was at Hastings Lake Gardens and I must say that this location just seems to be getting better as they add and tweek the property. We found some great locations onsite and this cute couple have some amazing shots to chose from. Their reception was at the Celtic hall and this spot really seemed to suit them. Of course the food and party were great and I believe that everyone had a good time. Here is a link to the sneak peek slideshow...Heather and Travis' Slideshow. Thank you so much for including us in your wedding!
