It’s amazing how much can change in six short months.

If you thought Libby and Greg were cute in their jeans and rubber boots….you can just imagine how they clean up.
A quick peek for everyone. ♥
It’s always a bit of a gut-check when I send off a client’s gallery.
Will they love them?
Will they be happy?
I hold my breath.
Hoping.
Nervous.
And then….you get a response like this one from Denise.
“When Dominic and I started planning for our wedding, we faced the challenges of a short time frame and limited knowledge of Halifax and surrounding area. We knew one thing for sure though, and that was that we wanted to have a wedding where love and laughter was evident in all things.
When we met you that Easter weekend it was love at first sight! I could not say what we enjoyed the most, the photos you showed us, your enthusiasm in picking out locations for the photo shoots or your personality. Dominic and I immediately felt at ease with you. We had so much fun and were so impressed by your excellence not only in your photography but also in your ability to bring out honest emotions and truly enjoy each moment. What excellent qualities to have as a photographer! We knew you were the one for us, after only a few hours together.
On the day of the wedding you were phenomenal. I have heard so many compliements about you from all of our guests! You were there not just for me and Dominic, but for the wedding party and our guests. You made me cry with your kind words, you were right in there with the bridesmaids trying to play a joke on Dominic, you braved the rain, you stayed until the very end (although misplacing your keys did not help) and your creativity with the photography had not just us, but our wedding guests excited to see the finished product!
I felt that you were not just our photographer who was there to capture the special moments of our day, but that you shared in our laughter and excitement and that you even helped to bring out the love and laughter that we wanted so much to be evident in all things.
Not only are you responsible for giving us the tangible memories of our wedding day, but you are also a special part of those memories. ”
And then I exhale. ♥
There is something a little extra special about a small town wedding. The kind where everybody knows everybody….where morning coffee is passed across the kitchen counter and not from the drive-thru window….and when you tell someone you’ll be at the restaurant, you mean THE restaurant….the rink or the firehall are the scene for all big events, and everyone’s invited.
Canso is a place like this, and it’s where Charlene and Matt both grew up.
It’s where they met, where they first kissed, where Matt proposed and last Saturday, where they were married.
It was a pleasure to photograph their day and to feel so welcomed by everyone. ♥
Anyone remember this little face from last summer ?!?

Well look who went and grew up…..must be all that fresh Northern air
