Summer
We met up with Jill and Daniel back in the winter for their first engagement session, and we were thrilled to get together with them one more time before their wedding. We walked around the Ottawa U campus (where they met) for a bit as well as around the National Art Gallery in Ottawa's downtown.
When we met Grace and Abe for their engagement session last winter (click here to see the photos), we were pretty excited for their actual wedding. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint. In beautiful Perth, the girls started the day at the Perth Manor Boutique Hotel. If you want to get us excited, this is the best first step possible. Finding myself in one of their suites, I was like a kid in a candy store. Awesome wallpaper, vintage furniture, big dreamy windows. The ceremony and reception took place at Temple's Sugar Bush. So much emotion from this couple, that even rain couldn't dampen their moods.
So often in our family sessions we find people are so concerned about having their kids smiling with everything looking happy and perfect. But that's not real and that's not family. The following session included bug attacks, nose bleeds and kids being kids. They may not be the photos you hang on your wall - but they are the photos you look back on and remember childhood.
