Valley Portraits

November 17, 2010

This is just a quick update to let all upcoming brides that may have inquired in the past and were turned down, that a very coveted date has just opened up. One of my brides had previously booked AUGUST 27, 2001, and has now had to change it to another date. If this date interests you, please contact me immediately as I don't think it will be available for long.

And since every post is better with a photo, here's one that I took on my recent trip to Philadelphia.

Winter Wedding Sneak Peak

November 14, 2010

| Weddings

This past weekend I had the great honor of shooting Kristin and Ryan's winter wedding. It was an incredibly long and foggy drive but very exciting as I knew that fog was bringing us some absolutely amazing frost. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful day for such a beautiful couple.

Candice and Rydell are married!

October 27, 2010

| Weddings

A few weeks ago I traveled into Manitoba for the wonderful wedding of Candice and Rydell. I was really looking forward to meeting them but felt like I already knew them a bit as Candice was nice enough to email me a bit about their life and how they got to be where they are now. It really helps in taking images for people when you know their likes, dislikes, hobbies, careers, etc. Anyway, it was a fabulous day with an absolutely amazing location out on a friends family farm that just happened to have an amazing antique car to use for photos and then he even drove them to the reception. Thank you so much Candice and Rydell for being so great to work with, as well as your parents and bridal party. EVERYONE was just fabulous. I'm glad your day went perfectly and I wish you both every happiness in the years to come. Here's a small selection of images from your day. I hope your and your family and friends enjoy them.

I first want to thank Val for such a sweet and sincere compliment. As well, I want to take the time to publicly reiterate what I have said again and again via email and phone...Thank you Sharon for being the best photographer a bride could ask for. I have to agree with Jill, one of your previous brides, that stated you are more than a photographer. You were so helpful and made our time before and after the ceremony so much fun. I am soo overjoyed at the pictures and can't wait to see them all. I wish you nothing but good things.

While I was not at Candace's wedding, our mother's have been close friends forever, and I was forwarded the link to this album, because I desperately wanted to see how beautiful she must have looked on her special day. Well, Candace - you were absolutely breathtaking my dear. I loved your dress - I know that maggie sotero dress well, my best friend almost bought it for her wedding. The photos that were taken are so classic, you look very happy and in love. COngrats and great pics!

Winter Day :(

October 26, 2010

| Weddings

Well as everyone has already seen, we have awoke this morning to some yucky white stuff blowing around that none of us are ready to accept. Well, at least we can be a bit relieved that the forecast is for nicer weather by the end of the week. However, since its a winter day and I had a few people ask about winter weddings at Bridal Fair this past weekend, I thought I would post a few of my favorite shots from some winter weddings over the past few years. Enjoy the blustery day everyone :)

Bridal Fair 2010

October 24, 2010

| Photography | Specials | Weddings

Well it was another successful, fun filled day at The Most Incredible Bridal Show. Its always nice to meet new potential clients, run into my past brides that are their with their friends who are now brides and of coarse see a bunch of the exhibitors that have become friends over the years. There are some very talented people out there! I wanted to send a special "Thank you" to my dear friend Sherry who has helped me in my booth from the beginning. As she said, "we've come along way from year one, lol" and we definitely have. I also want to thank Rory, James and Dalton for helping me load up, unload, set up and dismantle my booth again this year. What would I do without you all! And finally a thank you to my past clients, who's lovely faces adorn my photos each year.
