five years ago today i photographed my first wedding.
the couple – amazing friends of mine – were the first to trust me with the task of documenting their wedding day.
a great learning experience.
an incredible honor.
i’m so thrilled that i get to take their photos again next weekend in victoria.
happy anniversary melissa & ryan!

cheers to the next 5 years of marriage.
love you both.

the fiance + i: a little glimpse

a few people asked me for more photos of the fiance.
turns out the talented sister of mine can wield a camera as well as she can a paintbrush.
big thanks to her for lugging my huge camera around in the cold (+ wet) spring weather.
(also for putting up with awkward models)
seriously.
i have so much more sympathy for my clients now.
its hard work ‘being natural’

here are a few of my favorites from our photo session last week…

really enjoying editing this session.
let’s share the joy:
here’s a couple more sneak peeks.

katie + daniel. california engagement.

katie + daniel are an absolutely adorable couple.
met them in california while i was out there shooting carol + sam’s engagement.
(daniel happens to be samuel’s brother)
loved: katie’s beautiful smile + daniel’s laugh lines.
they laughed a lot.
made my job so easy.
after our session we all (carol + samuel too) ate greek food, then went to their place for games, wine + cheesecake.
best way to end a photoshoot.
