Twyla and Kerry had a beautiful sunny day… windy… but sunny. They got married in Rose Blanche. It was my first time visiting that part of the island, and boy was it ever beautiful there.
Another sneak peek for my very patient, and very beautiful cousin whose wedding I had the pleasure of photographing in early August. Megan and Boyce were married on family property in Burnside, Nl on a beautiful summer day. The seaside ceremony was performed by her grandfather, and was quite lovely.
The reception was held in the old Burnside school house. I think it was my first ever meal of steaks on the BBQ (at a wedding that is), but it sure was a treat! The location was especially nice for the first dance photos, as the close quarters meant that everyone crowded around to make a wonderful background to the dancing couple.
I have only had the opportunity to meet Boyce once before the wedding, but I know that he is perfect for Megan. He didn’t even flicnh when after letting me drive his car to out final location for photos, I left his keys in the ignation of his Mustang, locking them in…….. Burnside was a long trek for Triple A. Two weekends in a row locking myself out of a car, however, is not a very good record.
The second last photo is one of my all time favourites…. just because I am alwyas on the lookout for moments to occur, and when they do you just know that they will make a great photograph… these are are moments that tell a story, and are moments that you simply can not create……..
It has been a long time since I have logged in to write a blog post, I almost forgot how. I did however promise Lorie a sneak peek, and here it is! It was hard to decide what to show here as I had many favourites from this day. I have known Travis’ family for a long time (his big sis is a good friend of mine, his dad my highschool teacher, and Travis a friend of my brother), so it was very enjoyable to photograph this wedding.
Lorie and Travis had a beautiful day. Lorie was gorgeous in her oyster dress – a new favourite for me. They were even willing to head out to the old runways in town to try out a location that I have been wanting to try for a while. I am sure they thought I was crazy at the time, and even crazier when I locked my keys in the trunk of my father’s car….. but the results were fabulous.
And to any of Travis and Lorie’s friends who may be viewing this sneak peek in say Yellowknife, who may be getting married in say 2010…. I would love to have a reason to travel up there and se my baby brother and nephew.
