Jacqui and Lee are Married!

I can't express how much I loved the wedding of Jacqui and Lee.  I loved how both families were such a big part of their lives.  How all of the wedding guests got into the fun trying to make the Bride and Groom kiss.  Oh, if you could only be there!  And I just love Jacqui and Lee together.

Jacqui and Lee are the most down to Earth, loving couple.  The way they feel about each other radiates, and you just feel it!  Not to mention they are so much fun. 

We spent the afternoon running around downtown Barrie.  This is one of my favourite things to do with a wedding party, and these guys were the best!  They were not shy to do fun poses in the middle of the five points.  They were game for everything!

I shot so much at this wedding, because there was so much to capture.  Unfortunately I can't show them all, so enjoy the few I am adding here.   I hope you can tell just how special these two are. 
 

And this next shot was the last of the night, and one of my favourites.

 

Courtney and Mark are Married!

 Courtney and Mark's day was truly blessed.  The sun was shining, but it wasn't scorching hot.  The bride was gorgeous, the groom was handsome, the families were proud and shedding tears of joy.  This was the quintessential wedding where two gorgeous people meet, fall in love, and the whole world falls in love with them.  It's the stuff Disney movies are made of....and I LOVE it.

The reception and photos took place at the Credit Valley Golf and Country Club in Mississauga, and I felt like I had died and gone to photographer's Heaven.  It was gorgeous, and I could have shot there all day.  It was the perfect recipe!  Gorgeous bride and groom, gorgeous golf course.

My favourite part of their big day was how Courtney kept saying, "this is really happening."  She had a few moments where she cried a little, and because she said she was "marrying the man of my dreams."  Amazing.  I've never heard a bride say that before. I knew it was true.  They are perfect together, and so in sync.  Made forever. 

Courtney and Mark are truly going to live happily ever after.  Enjoy!

 

Rachael and Terry are Married!

It was the perfect day.  It was sunny, bright, hot, and steamy.  My favourite kind of day.  But what made this day perfect was that Rachael and Terry were finally getting married.

The bride truly took my breath away when I saw her all glammed up by the amazing Krystie Ann who did her hair and make up.  She was the definition of a bride.  A soft glow, a calmness about her.  You knew she was just ready. 

Terry was the same way when I saw him.  Not at all nervous, just ready.  I think that's when you know a couple is truly ready to get married. 

The ceremony was at the gorgeous Collier Street United Church and the reception was at one my favourites:  The MacLaren Art Centre.  The bridal party was blast too!  We took over downtown Barrie and laughed way too hard.  A model party!

Enjoy the shots of Rachael and Terry, as I really had a blast with these two and their incredible friends. 

 I LOVE attitude shots, and these guys really brought it!

Samantha and Ben are Married!

It was a first me at Belcroft Estates and everything took my breath away.  The setting, the attention to detail, the fact that we could shoot ANYWHERE, the staff who were amazing!  And most importantly, how it completely suited Ben and Sam.

This amazing couple had a country-themed wedding complete with the Bride in cowboy boots.  Oh, but she changed afterward into her cleats to match the baseball-themed reception.  Totally them!

Sam is the most down to Earth Bride you could ever ask for.  She is a huge athlete, playing ball a few times a week.  She loves baseball, but not as much as she loves Ben. 

You hear me say all the time how I love love, and this wedding oozed it!  Ben was brought to tears as he saw Sam for the first time, and he wasted no time calling her his wife.  I loved it! 

Enjoy the photos from Belcroft, a place I will truly recommend and I hope I get the chance to go back. 

Ben and Sam, I wish for you the happiest marriage because you two are amazing!

Joceline and Ryan's Lafontaine Wedding

The wedding of Joceline and Ryan was pretty special for me, not only because the bride is one of my best friend's cousins, but because it was such a beautiful, laid back affair. 

Joceline's family is a farming family who have chickens as pets.  They seriously come when you call them. I loved it!  I loved that we posed with the chickens and the combines.  It was so fun.  Not to mention, a special trip to their neighbour's wine cellar.  Beautiful.

The reception was at Discovery Harbour, which is easily one of my favourite venues now because of the feel of the historic place, but also the incredible sunset over Georgian Bay.

Joceline and Ryan are one of those couples you are just so relaxed to be around, and I love that in a couple.  Here's to many relaxed, loving years to come!

Becky and Hunter's vintage wedding

I am so, so, so excited to share these photos from Becky and Hunter's wedding. I love this wedding so much because it's so unique. Becky infused so much vintage into her big day complete with Lavender bouquets she made her self, the men wore grey vests (awesome!) and the entire day was spent at a heritage museum in Milton. It. was. gorgeous. I want to shoot there every day!

I had with me my amazing second shooter Adrionna who took breathtaking photos with me all day. Becky looked stunning, Hunter looked dashing and the bridal party was so fun! The day was filled with so much laughter and fun and then emotion and love. We couldn't stop raving about the day.

I love the many details of the wedding, all carefully planned out by the bride and groom who maybe should think about switching careers and going into the wedding planning business, because they are amazing at it.

I want to show you all the photos from the day because I'm so in love with every detail of the day.

Enjoy the photos from one of the best weddings with one of the best couples around.
