There were so many amazingly touching moments during Karen + Jay’s wedding. So many in fact that as I was editing their photos, I would stumble across one that would remind me of a moment, and I would scribble a note about how I wanted to write about it for their blog post. So I now have a list as long as my arm full of just the sweetest little moments from their wedding day and I am completely filled with joy and warmth when I read through it.
As photographers we tend to be one of the few wedding day vendors that are with our couples for pretty much their entire wedding day. We see the couple before they see one another, as they commit their lives to one another in front of their friends and families, as we capture their love in their portraits, and of course, as they celebrate their day during their reception. And throughout all of these moments, we get to see just how much they love one another. And each and every wedding has been a joy to be a part of.
When I first proposed the Carbide Mill Ruins within the Gatineau Park as a location for their session, it came with a warning of requiring a 30-ish minute hike. And I knew it was going to be awesome when Carrie + Sean didn’t even blink at the warning!!
Bug, bugs and more bugs!! Seriously I think every bug in the area was inside Gatineau Park during our engagement session with Carrie + Sean. But these two beard the annoyance beautifully (although regular swatting sessions were needed) .
