Meanwhile, my Canadian counterpart, Shelby, was over in Ariss getting shots of the guys having fun. It's so simple for the men, they just shower, shave and slip on their suits... it leaves enough time to hang out and enjoy a game of croquet on the lawn.
The ceremony was held at Koinonia Christian Fellowship in Bloomingdale, On. I have to say that this is the first time I have ever cried during any ceremony that I have photographed. Ariana's family is all musical. Ariana sang this really beautiful song to Scott, which is when the tears started to flow. Her mother and sister also sang and her brother played the guitar. It was a treat for the ears, they are all so talented! They enjoyed a stand up reception where they received blessings from all their guests and served some yummy refreshments. For example, they had these brownie bites topped with real gold, oh my gosh!
We left the church and headed out to get some fun shots of the wedding party and parents in Elora, Ontario. There is this old, abandoned building that set the backdrop for some really neat photos. We then left Elora with just Scott and Ariana and headed out to Fergus where we finished up getting some romantic shots along the river in a really rustic, natural setting. I could not have asked for a more loving couple to come and just be themselves in front of the camera. These two are full of so much love for each other.
Thank you so much, Scott and Ariana, for giving me the honor of capturing this day. It was such a blast!

You are an amazing photographer! I was at the wedding and things that I thought were awesome you turned into such vibrant pictures! I am so happy they are married and you captured it perfectly! (P.S. My dad officiated the wedding) (P.P.S. I think officiated is the right word)
thanks girls! I actually grew up in that church, so I know your dad.. lol. Which means I'm pretty sure I know who you are. Shelby is my cousin, by the way :)
