Emma & Cody

Ugh, these two <3

When you're asked by another photographer to photograph their wedding, it is an honour. Well, Cody and Emma are both photographers and when I first heard from them I was so stoked to share this day with them. Their beautiful backyard wedding just outside of Washington, D.C. was the cutest most heartwarming celebration. Beautiful heartfelt moments with family and friends ending in the bride hanging out in her pajamas. What a great day. Thank you Emma & Cody!

Wedding / Amy & Justin

"Sorry, I just had to speak with the plumber. We finally got our mess of a toilet fixed- thanks for waiting!" I think that's pretty much how my first conversation with Amy went over the phone. It's that kind of down-to-earth ease Amy and Justin posses that could make any stranger feel welcome into their lives. Their openness and welcoming spirit extended beyond themselves to their family and friends and created some wonderful heartfelt moments for me to capture. I'll let the pictures tell the rest!

Katie Woodhouse

On a post-blizzard day like today, going through these photos was so refreshing and it renewed my hopes for Spring and warmer days. All of this snow can make me forget about how beautiful summers here in New Brunswick really are. Katie now lives in Montreal, but last summer I was able to spend a lovely afternoon picking tons of wild lupins with her here in Saint John. It's always a pleasure photographing creative individuals such as Katie. I hope you enjoy looking through these bright, warm and sunny photos as much as I did.

Emma & Derek

Emma and Derek's wedding in Grand Barachois was the last wedding of 2014 for me. I couldn't have spent the day with a more fun-loving bunch of people who truly welcomed me into their lives for the day. I could have spent hours alone with them taking photos on the beach. It was a gorgeous backdrop for them as they were windswept and held each-other close. Love makes beautiful photos, every time. Thank you Emma and Derek. Enjoy!

Kara & Andrew

Kara and Andrew planned their wedding in true Uptown Saint John style. At any point in time, I had a great view of the port while I spent the day walking the brick-lined streets with them. Their celebration continued through the night at the Diamond Jubilee Cruise Terminal with beautiful twinkly lights, shiny sequins and crystal chandeliers.. a real visual treat. As I listened to speeches, I was laughing in stitches and tears. No doubt these two are surrounded with unconditional love from their family and friends all around.

Angela & Brendan

I don't think I've ever encountered a couple that giggle together as much as Brendan and Angela do. It was so much fun to spend the day with them and capture those moments of infectious happiness. Following their ceremony at Meenan's Cove, everyone enjoyed excellent food  provided by The Barrel's Head Gastropub & Winebar and live music by WTFunk. A wonderful day indeed. Cheers to you, Angela and Brendan!

Colin & Lisa

What a beautiful pair Lisa and Colin are. Add an awesome group of friends who like to party and a family that can dance up a storm and you've got the prefect recipe for an entertaining and fun-filled day. Colin and Lisa's engagement session was so lovely and their wedding day was no exception... perfect weather, great light and a nice location. Lisa and Colin, this one is for you! Enjoy the memories.

Tiffany & James

When I first met with Tiffany and James, it was immediately apparent that being their photographer was going to be so much fun. I spent their wedding day with them at the Mackay Apple Orchard on the Kingston Peninsula. Their family and friends gathered together for an intimate backyard ceremony which was followed by a beautiful reception and delicious dinner catered by East Coast Bistro. The light was so rich, the sun drenched everything and turned it to gold. Tiffany and James were glowing and so was everything around them. This day was bliss. 

The Gallery Sisters

“Sister. She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark...”  - Barbara Alpert

I read this quote a few years ago and I think it's a beautiful illustration of the special relationship between sisters. I have four; we are all unique with varying traits and live very far away from each other. It was such a treat to spend an afternoon with these girls and their brother-dog, Ed. They stuck it through the (pouring) rain and stuck to each other while I did my best to capture their bond and the essence of who they are as individuals. Here are a few of my favorite photographs from our time together. 

Bruce & Danielle

Bruce is a fellow photographer and friend of mine from Pennsylvania. We've worked on some interesting projects for Ferasha Films together over the past few years. When he asked me to photograph his wedding, I was so excited and honored that he chose me to come all the way from Canada to be there. Shout out to Alli Viscomi for shooting alongside me and for making some great photos. Enjoy!
