Together with their friends and family, Nalini and Brad celebrated 19 years of love in an incredibly gorgeous and heart-felt ceremony that I had the absolute honour to not only witness but also document. They gathered on the beautiful grounds at Fort Gibraltar and honoured their Indigenous and South Indian roots in a moving ceremony that included lots of words of love, traditions and people near and dear to their hearts. It was such a pleasure being there to capture all the celebrations, the relationships and the fun. It was also a true joy getting to know Nalini and Brad! They have big hearts and are a ton of fun – and it’s no wonder they had lots of people in their presence. They are well surrounded by close friends and family and it was really beautiful to see everyone come together to celebrate them. Congratulations you two!
When I first met Hannah at Richard’s sibling’s wedding a few years back, I immediately knew these two had something very special and that one day I would likely hear of their engagement. And my guess was not wrong. She was the right girl for him, and he for her, and before I knew it, I received an e-mail from them announcing their engagement! (cue in the happy dance!) Richard later told me that he knew within just a few days after they started dating that he would marry her one day. It’s one of those you-just-know-that-you-know love stories. And when you see them together, you can’t imagine that there was ever a day that they were not together! These two have a connection beyond words and to see their love for each other and their two hearts intertwined into one is incredibly beautiful. The ceremony was so moving (you can see all the emotions on their faces, and let me tell you, there was not a dry eye in that church!) and the rest of the day and evening had such a fun, celebratory mood. Their families are very near and dear to them and it was absolutely beautiful to see them so closely involved with everything. Even Hannah’s dad had the great honour of marrying them. I must also say that I absolutely love the venue they chose – Hawthorn Estates is such a great wedding venue, it’s just a short drive from Winnipeg, and best of all, they are fully equipped to accommodate photos in case of rain. (which we definitely took advantage of, as we did get a bit of rain throughout the time we had allocated for outdoor photos – it was perfect!). Here’s a preview of the photos from their wedding day!
If there’s one thing that I retained from this day was Robyn & Bernie’s deep admiration for each other and profound devotion to one another. From the moment they saw each other at the first look, their love was clearly evident in every look, touch and exchange they shared. It truly was an honour to be present at their wedding, not only as a photographer but as a witness to their commitment. What a truly delightful couple!
If you think a March wedding in Winnipeg might not be the best time of year for a wedding, think again… Miranda and Mike chose such a beautiful day and gorgeous locations and combined with their chemistry and authenticity, it was such a perfect assemblage of all things lovely! Surrounded by their closest family members and friends, they tied the knot in a quaint and intimate setting at the historic Fort Gibraltar. We captured some romantic portraits of the two of them with just the most perfect sunset glow and finished the day with a cozy reception into the evening. These two absolutely glow when they’re together and it was a true delight to document their day for them. Félicitations Miranda & Mike!
I’ve fallen so far behind in blogging and it’s definitely not for lack of photos to post! I’m buried under a mountain of photo shoots that have been delivered to clients but never posted on my blog — and it’s about time I start sharing them! Today I’m introducing you to this absolutely wonderful couple, Lauren & Ryan, and photos from their wedding last June. It was a beautiful and heart-felt day that had emotions running high and the love abounding above and beyond all else. They had their wedding at PineRidge Hollow, got married outside and had a gorgeous reception inside the tent on the property. We had time to take some photos around Birds Hill Park and what a lovely day it was to spend time with these two, their family and friends. Here is a preview of their day… enjoy!
