Four New WPJA Diamond Awards for Engagement Portraits!
Valerie Rosen Photography has been recognized for Four (4) new “Diamond Awards for Engagement Portraits” by the Wedding Photojournalists Association [WPJA] and we couldn’t be more grateful! All three of these photos were created during “Discovery” photo sessions, as part of their Full Day Documentary Wedding Photography plan. These fun engagement photo sessions are an easygoing, unscripted one hour session in a location that might be meaningful to the couple, and serve as a light-hearted opportunity for us to hang out with my cameras, and discover a comfortable flow in our developing relationship of working together. By the time the wedding day rolls around, we just pick up where we left off, so they can feel supported and know they can rely on me throughout their wedding day. Thrilled to share these heartwarming images of love with you! Thanks for viewing!
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.
Montreal Wedding at Pavillon de la Jamaïque in Early October.
To say it was an honour to document Steph and Alex’s wedding is an understatement, as these two truly epitomize the palpable joy of marrying your best friend. From the moment I met them for their fun engagement session at Parc Nature de l’Ile de la Visitation, where they swing danced and laughed and loved without a care in front of the camera, to planning final wedding day details together online, to witnessing and documenting their big day at the ever picturesque Pavillon de la Jamaïque, it was so easy to capture their deep connection.
