I just wanted to share with you a recent album design that will be debuting at the upcoming Ottawa Wedding Show – The Wedding Palace at the Ottawa Convention Centre January 7+8 . It will be finished with a glass cover to show threw the cover image below – I am really excited about this album because it also features printing on Hannamule fine art paper giving it a beautiful balance with modern materials and classic fine art treatment.

Kate and Ian had their wedding ceremony and reception at the Westin Hotel Ottawa with wedding planning provided by Bridal Solutions  with floral design by the talented Erin Carmichael of Full Bloom Floral Design.

 I will be in booth #306 and I would love to meet you and show you some of the exciting products that will be part of our 2012 wedding product line.

Special thanks to Liz at Halftone Media for her excellent graphic design work to create this beautiful album and showcase the work so beautifully.

See you there!

It really was love at first sight for both Kate and Ian. The speeches reveal so much about so many aspects of a couple- who they were, who they are apart and who they have become together. Kate and Ian are a dynamic, engaging, generous and super fun couple with families that match that description. She came originally from New Brunswick, and, as her sister noted…hearts are breaking there now that the much beloved Kate’s heart has been stolen…Ian is the dashing and charming queen’s grad that travelled in Tawain to teach and now has the priviledge of working alongside his sister and brother in a business that they are building together.

Both Kate and Ian were surrounded by over 200 of their closest friends and family…and I really mean it – this much loved couple had guests come from all over the globe and as close as New York and New Brunswick to be apart of celebrating this wonderful couple. Not to mention, Kate and her nurse work colleagues spent a full day making over 200 candy apple favors by hand…that’s friendship and then some! I mentioned in their engagement post that “the Burn’s” – (Ian’s family) used to live on my street in Manor Park …and so it was a quite a treat to see so many of my own lovely neighbors looking dashing and in attendance. At the end of the evening, I received the warmest thank you…to be added among their stellar groups of friends. My warmest congratulations to you both, it was a spectacular day and have a wonderful trip to Hawaii!

Here’s a sneak peek at their beautiful wedding at the Westion Hotel Ottawa with Bridal Solutions Wedding Planning & Event Production. Floral design by the talented Erin Carmichael of Full Bloom Floral Design. Dress by Romona Keveza from The White Dress.

Sarah and Steve were referred by their wedding planner Allison Turner of Live Love Plan – they were planning a chic modern tent wedding in a charming vintage style at a beautiful venue in Beckwith Ontario, called Stonefields Heritage Farm. Sarah and Steve are heaps of fun and they are equally rivalled by the wonderful clan of folks that surround them. Much like they are, the feel of the wedding day was unfussed with a laid back pace that allowed the large wedding party to spend time being together as the wonderful groups of friends that they are while also having time to squish cheeks with their beautiful baby daughter Olivia. Surrounded by the love of their parents, friends and family and with a little Barry White in the Grooms speech – it was a truly amazing day to be a part of. It was a honor for me to document the day…

Special thanks to Allison Turner of Live Love Plan for being such an amazing wedding planner to work with and to the lovely ladies at Sparrow Floral Design who blew me away with their talent! And always thanks to Stephanie and Steve the hosts at Stonefields Heritage Farm, they are always gracious, welcoming and an absolute pleasure to work with. Special thanks also to the lovely Anna Epp for assisting and being flawless!

Maria is the younger sister of one of my very dear friends from University. I have known her through the years and now I will have the honor of capturing her wedding at the Richmond Hill Golf and Country Club just outside Toronto this Saturday as she marries the love of her life, Joe. There was screaming and jumping and all the things that ladies do when they hear the big news. I felt like I was asked to be in the bridal party- it’s so special to me. I can’t imagine any other way to be at a wedding other than capturing all the special moments of so many people I personally care about while doing something I love so much. A very special weekend ahead…I am so looking forward to it!  Here are some of the images from their engagement in the Distillery District in Toronto.
