This was kind of a special wedding for me as Heather is my Aunt.My awesome, beautiful, crazy intelligent aunt might I add!She is such a free-spirit, and when someone tells me I remind them of her, I consider it a huge compliment! I remember Heather bringing Jamie to my cousins wedding a few years back.While I knew then what a great guy he was, I didn't realize until their wedding day just how kind and down to earth he actually is! They are literally like two teenagers- head over heels for one another. They stared at each other all day and smiled non stop. At one point Jamie asked me what the worst situation is to take wedding photos. My response " it's when you can't feel any love! It doesn't matter where you are, what the background is, if you can feel the love in a photo, that's all you need". Nodding in agreement with me, he flashed a huge smile at me and said- "isn't that the truth!!!". I think literally every photo of Heather & Jamie reflects that my theory is correct! Love trumps it all!!
They met on a mountain, got married on the mountain...so...why not do the photos on the mountain ? Melissa & Darren are honestly two of the kindest, friendliest people I have ever met. When I first met Melissa, I was excited simply because esthetically, she would be a dream to photograph-and then she projects herself! She is so well spoken& sensible, and just an awesome gal! Darren was just laid back! He was so mellow and considerate, I felt like I was at a friends wedding! Melissa was incredibly smart about her wedding planning, had everything lined up for me and everything actually flowed-exactly as planned! We headed to the post card perfect light house in New Victoria. When I asked if she would mind getting up the cement pedestal next to the light house- she had her shoes off and was being hoisted up there by the grooms men before I had the words out of my mouth! I love uniqueness- anything that stands out from your typical posed, perfect composition shots. Darren & Melissa are a direct reflection of what they wanted their photos to portray- a unique, stand out couple! I wish you two all the best- thank you for choosing me:)
