When I met Phil and Jess on the evening of their engagement session, I knew without a doubt that their wedding would be stylish and fun. It was that and more - with flawless attention to detail, a ridiculously beautiful couple (who looked pretty fantastic in their wedding attire, might I add!), a hilarious (and gi-gan-tic) wedding party and sweet, fun-loving family members and guests - everything was perfect. Oh, and did I mention the food? The food was delicious. The thunderstorm that threatened to mess with their outdoor plans all day only showed up once everyone was safely seated in the reception tent, and only stuck around for about 15 minutes (happy dance!). The one downer was the heat (35-ish degrees celsius with humidex, oy!), but everyone was in such good spirits that it simply didn't matter. Phil and Jess, you guys were a pleasure to work with, and I wish you nothing but the very best as you embark on this new journey together. Enjoy this sneak peek from your very beautiful wedding day. -xo p.s.: Big shout out to my fabulous, talented and fun second shooter, Laura! xo
Jess had a special request to showcase everyone in her 17-person bridal party - a Brady Bunch inspired headshot collage. How fun!
Since launching Raw Footage Photography, I've specialized in lifestyle family photography, but have always taken on a handful of weddings every year, and I've always loved them. I've decided to open up my calendar to take on more weddings this year, and am SO excited about expanding my business in this direction. When my lovely friend Natalie Young of Mint Photography asked me to second shoot this beautiful November wedding with her, I was thrilled. She normally shoots with her husband Ron, but he was exceptionally unavailable. Which meant I got to spend the day with a talented friend, a gorgeous couple, and add some shots from a fabulously styled wedding to my portfolio. Win-Win-Win (fist pump!).
