Nuptials & Babies: A Love Story
Unbeknownst to Sam and Drew’s closest friends and family, the couple had already been secretly married for 2 years by civil marriage ceremony, before finally moving forward with their formal wedding day planning! Needless to say, their ceremony officiant, and dear friend, Alma would have the pleasure of informing everyone that validating the marriage by reading the usual legal texts would be unnecessary, and reveal their big secret, given that she was a witness for their civil marriage ceremony! The audience reactions were a blast to document, and a joy to capture for their memory of this special day in their love story.
Your Documentary Wedding Photographer: Your Trusted Confidant…
When you meet with your photographer, be it in person, on a call, or any other way you connect, listening to you share some of your favourite memories and significant milestones as a couple, not only enriches the visual storytelling your photographer can capture for you, but also fosters a deeper bond between your photographer and you. This commitment to trust building in your working relationship is paramount to your mutual peace of mind.
WPJA Wedding Spotlight Awards!
Shortly after arriving in town for this stunning Carnegie Music Hall Foyer wedding, I met up with Charlotte and Karan at the hotel bar to reconnect. When I was first introduced to Charlotte’s maternal grandmother, her eyes lit up with love and pride, as she proceeded to tell me about her favourite memory of Charlotte’s character as a child. Caught this glowing candid moment under a chapel spotlight, while chatting with her husband just before the wedding ceremony procession would begin.
