I'm not gonna lie: I love shooting outside of town. It's so fun and you never know what you're going to get. Unless it's one of those weekends when the weather is NASTY!
Friday, just before Kirsten and Corey's wedding I was thinking to myself - What on earth can we possibly do? So I made a few phone calls to some trusted photog friends - and was reminded of this cute little place just north of Gimli where we could take a break from the elements...
But let me back up just a bit... Once in a while I don't meet the bride and groom till the wedding day. And though I met Kirsten once at a Wedding Show and then again the week before the wedding to plan out the details, nothing could prepare me for the amazing day we were about to have.
Kirsten has an amazing personality and her laughter will have you in stitches, I guarantee you! And if you don't think that she and Corey are in love, think again. I was in tears during the reception - nothing new, I know - but their true love is something we all aspire to.
Without further ado, here are some images.
The ceremony was at Misty Lake Lodge - by the water - and there was no getting away from the howling wind. I just love this shot of her grandpa walking her down. You will see a lot of these spontaneous laughter type shots from the day.
I also love this moment these guys were having here:
Family time:
I kid you not, I didn't even have to crack jokes.
The boys looked extremely handsome in their brown suits:
A moment of seriousness...
Then right back to normal...
I loved how the girls had brown dresses and fuchsia shoes!
Some alone time by the water...
Love this one!
Oh and these! Hello dancing!
Father and Daughter dance:
Thank you Kirsten and Corey for trusting me with this fabulous day! I love that I can contribute to your legacy.
