Being a child photographer in Newfoundland, there are always fun locations to go – we took Amelia to  the park the last time we saw her.
But sometimes there’s nothing sweeter than a simple studio shoot!

She did NOT want anything in her hair. The look she gave her mother!! I couldn’t help but laugh.


Pretending to be shy.

Don’t believe it for a second!

Silly girl!

Too much fun!
I can’t wait to see how much she changes between now and the next time I see her!

xo!

It called for rain,  but we lucked out with overcast skies.
The bride was calm and ethereal, the groom was the happiest he has ever been. With their closest friends as their bridal party, they enjoyed every moment of their day.
The boys laughed and sang, had beers, and played guitar.
The girls giggled and reminisced about how long they had been friends, and how much had changed.
The bride and groom were always looking at each other and smiling.
The groom kept telling his beautiful bride how incredible she looked.
The new Royals danced the night away.
Robbie and Niki’s day was perfect.

This is a long blogpost. It might be the longest so far!
There are over 125 images here. It’s a great example of what you receive from us.
This will also really give you an idea of the benefit of having 2 photographers.

Crystal and Rick are expecting their first child in August. Carmen decided to do something sweet, personal, and perfect for her.

I could have printed out something quick and easy. Heck, Staples carries little booklets of  ’Gift Certificates,’ that you just fill out with a regular old ballpoint.
This friendship, and this new-mother-to-be, deserved something much more personal.
So I (and John when I got frustrated and teary when it wasn’t turning out the way I wanted!) crafted this over a few hours on Sunday evening.

(I actually stuck my fingers together while gluing on the flags. Totally worth EVERY effort!)

I can’t imagine a more perfect gift for a new mother. A baby can only wear so many clothes, play with so many toys. But they don’t stay babies very long. Infants grow so quickly. Having beautiful images to reflect on later are priceless. Carmen knows how fast children grow, so she started searching for maternity and baby photographers in Newfoundland. I am so honoured she chose me.

John is too wonderful to me – he helped me with the printer settings, with the glue, with the string, and with the address stickers sticking. (Dear Scrapbookers, you have my utmost respect!) He is so crafty. I can set things up to look incredible in an image – but for the life of me, I can’t cut, glue, tape, or fold. But he could see how important this was for me, and knew exactly how to interpret what I was saying, and brought it to life! I am thrilled and so proud of how the gift certificate came out.

When it’s redeemed, I’ll simply write on the back of it, and then Crystal can keep it for a special memento if she’d like. It’s perfect.

What a beautiful surprise this will be. I only wish I could see Crystal’s face when she opens the envelope.
I know this is only one small memory from the long and solid friendship you both share, but I am so touched to be a part of it.

Rick, Crystal, I can’t wait to meet you both, and your new baby boy, in August!

xoxo!

Although being a wedding photographer in Newfoundland you sometimes have to deal with unexpected weather, I knew it would have taken much worse than 30+cm of snow with high winds to have held up this marriage!

After 12 years together, Lisa and Doug braved a fierce Newfoundland spring storm to tie the knot!

This is much much more than I usually would post in a SneakPeek – but what could I have left out??

Think the bride was breathtaking? Doug’s expression says it all.

I think the dance the bride surprised her lifelong best friend with was one of everyone’s favorite parts of today.

So much more to come when all the images are processed.
Thank you Lisa and Doug for all of your considerate gestures today, and for making us feel as part of your family and close friends.

xoxo

Mark Webber is a fantastic magician, he not only made balloon animals for everyone, he put on a spectacular show! The adults enjoyed just as much as the kids did!

Here’s a sneak peek for his mom, because I know she’s itching to see some of what we got that day!

Can’t wait for them to see the rest!

xox – Jennifer

Here are only some of the hilarious images we came away with.

As you can see, your guests can be as silly or as formal as they like – they can be themselves!
More pictures from the day to come!

xo!
