I’m finishing up edits on earlier weddings right now but I wanted to post some sneak peek photos for all my upcoming posts as well, and so everyone can have a few photos to see right now! I’m going to try to have all of these posts done and up in the next two weeks, that’s my goal, and also have 75% of all work completely edited by that time (less just the most recent weddings which will take a little longer). Okay, now I’ve put it out there, so I have a deadline!! I’m not doing any baby stuff until I’m finished with photos, and baby is due in 7 weeks so I need to get the butt in gear so I have time to prepare!

With that being said, I’m sooooo in love with every single one of these weddings and shoots below, I’m so excited with how the photos look and I can’t wait to show a bit more of each! You’re all gorgeous and wonderful!!!

Much more next week! Jody’s mom and step-dad are visiting this weekend, I’m so excited for them to see the belly!! So I should have the next post up starting probably on Wednesday. Have a great weekend everyone!

Two of my wonderful wedding clients from this past year were Aimee & Christopher. I remember first meeting them at my house and how I loved seeing that special sweet connection they had, and a combination of such a deep love and also a fun, almost newly dating excitement for each other – it was so wonderful and sweet and heartwarming! We had such a fun time at their engagement shoot and those are still some of my favorite photos ever!! And their wedding day was so beautiful, they have such wonderful families and had such a fun wedding party, and when we got them off by themselves that deep love for each other was so strong, and then we also had lots of fun photos, I love how much fun they have together!!

Aimee and Christopher recently stopped by to drop off a thank you note and referral letter for me. I was so so so touched, and it absolutely made my day and raises my spirits whenever I look at it!! Thank you so so much, Aimee & Christopher, and know the feeling is completely mutual, I adore you both!!!

I wanted to share some of what they wrote, because it means so much!!

“Dear Rebecca,

In life, we are sometimes lucky enough to meet a handful of people who inspire us to enjoy each and every day, and remind us that life is truly a gift. To our surprise, we did not expect our wedding photographer to be among those people – but you certainly are.

Our home is filled with photos taken by you that capture the love we share for one another. They make us smile and laugh, and serve as a reminder for how special it is to love someone. So for this we thank you…Our wedding and engagement photos are stunning, and timeless – they are snapshots into our journey together that we will enjoy sharing with family and friends for years to come.

Although you are just beginning your journey as a photographer – we know you will be a huge success, because you already are. Anyone who looks at your photos is amazed by the fact that you not only capture the person – but also the emotion, the moment, and the feeling. We made a lot of decisions in planning our wedding, and none were as important, nor as meaningful, as was our decision to hire you. You were everything we could have hoped for and more.

…You are a truly exceptional photographer, and more importantly – person. We hope you keep in contact with us, and we look forward to following your work…

Sincerest thanks,
Aimee & Christopher”

I have so many favorite photos of Aimee and Christopher, it’s so hard for me to choose!! But here are a few of the many I love!

Aimee is also so creative and talented!! I know she’ll end up doing something with the wedding industry, because she loves it so much and is so creative and excited about everything wedding and love-related!! She just started making adorable little cards and boutonnieres, and she’s opening an etsy shop! I LOVE etsy!!!! She just dropped off the first batch of cards – sixpence cards – for me to take photos of for her – she has them available in all different colors and with the cutest little decorations on them!! I quickly took a couple photos so I could attach them here, so everyone can see a little tease of how cute they are!!! I’ll post some more photos soon, and link to her fabulous etsy shop!!!

Their wedding day was so perfect, it was beautiful weather and they were surrounded by so much love and fun in their family and friends. Aimee looked stunning in her dress and I absolutely ADORED the vintage theme of her wedding. And Christopher looked so handsome and in love! And these two had one of the best looking wedding parties ever!!

I started the day with the girls at Atomium Hair Salon downtown, and then we went to Aimee’s parents’ house where the girls did their makeup and got dressed. My wonderful hubby started with Christopher and the guys for some getting ready photos, and then we all met at the church. I loved seeing Aimee’s teary eyes when she walked down the aisle looking at Christopher, and seeing Christopher’s look of love and pride as he looked at his beautiful bride! After the ceremony, some bubbles and family photos, we went with the bridal party to the St. Boniface Cathedral and the nunnery next door for lots of fun photos. I love that Christopher and Aimee are so sweet and romantic one minute and jumping on each others’ backs for fun photos the next minute! My hubby and I kept Aimee and Christopher a little longer for more photos and then drove them to the reception (and we went through a McDonald’s drive-thru on the way!), and then we had a little time for a few more photos in the evening light.

Their reception was filled with tasty food, gorgeous decor, a touching remembrance area for grandparents who were present in the families’ hearts, tears and laugher during the speeches, and some seriously fun and fabulous dancing! The DJ, Andre Genthon of Great Times Entertainment, was amazing – he got everyone excited and on the dance floor and played some fun games that I’d never seen before, I’d so highly recommend him to anyone!

Here are a list of some of the fabulous vendors from the day ::

Hair :: Atomium Hair Salon
Wedding Dress :: Casablanca Bridal
Bridesmaid Dresses :: Enzoani Love, from Cassiopeia’s Bridal Boutique
Tuxes :: Moore’s
Flowers :: Bonny at My Secret Garden
Reception :: Niakwa Country Club
Cake :: Belinda at High Tea Bakery
DJ :: Great Times Entertainment

Thank you SO MUCH to Christopher and Aimee, you two are so wonderful both individually and as a couple and I am so honored to have been able to spend the day with you and document your wedding day and love, and I’ve so loved getting to know you both.
