Engaged & Married All In One | Kitchener Waterloo Wedding Photographer

It feels like forever ago that I shot this session.  Laura contacted me for something a little less traditional.  Originally, she contacted me for an engagement shoot. Then they decided to get married in Vegas and do a combined session when they got home.  Well, maybe not they, but Laura and I thought it was brilliant! So we started off by putting the dress back on for the first half and then jumped into some more casual clothes for the second half.  I had so much fun with this shoot.  Jason and Laura, you two are such a great match.  Thank you Laura for choosing me and thank you Jason for playing along. 

  

The Dress | Elora Photographer

Every girl dreams of her wedding day and the beautiful dress she will wear.  What you don't know when you're a little girl is how much you will spend on this dress and how little time you spend wearing it.  So why not make it worth while and throw it back on for another round?  Some people call it a "trash the dress" session and some people call it "bridal portraits".  It doesn't matter what you want to call it, it's brilliant!!!  

Mandy was married last summer in a gorgeous farm/tent wedding with details fit for a pinterest page.  Everything was beautiful including the dress.  Fitted lace with a tiny bow; this dress could not have been made for any other person.  It was perfect for the bride and the theme.  When Mandy asked me about doing a shoot this fall in her dress I was over the moon excited.  It gave me creative freedom that you can't exercise on the actual wedding day.  We stomped through glass, weeds, rocks and water to come up with the end result.  

Thank you for your trust Mandy and for your friendship. I will never forget this shoot. . . for many reasons. ;)
