Shannon + Jesse | Wedding

Jesse waited on the boardwalk… the rain coming down in random drops all around him. As he stood alone with his thoughts his beautiful bride was approaching behind him. Today was the day they would marry… and in a moment he was going to see his wife for the first time on that special day.

Shannon’s beautiful jewelry. The locket contains her great grandparents, which she carried with her bouquet all day.

Shannon and Jesse – Looking back on your wedding day, I hardly even remember that it was raining! The warmth you have for each other made it just as sunny a day as any other this summer… thank you for choosing me to capture it for you!

    Oh, Amber, these are just gorgeous! Everything just looks so *happy*. I love the shot of the flowers in the boots and the one from underneath the dress.

    These are SO beautiful. I love their rainboots/umbrellas. And the shot of them standing still and people walking around them is BRILLIANT. Time does stand still for love like that. <3 .

    Amber the backdrops in these photos are incredible! I looooooove the architectural shots in Emily Carr and the secret shots are a huge fav. I think your use of texture complimented all the photos so perfectly. Gorgeous as always!!

    I think this may be one of my faves of yours to-date. I’m a little partial to rain, partly b/c I miss the Westcoast, and partly because it can be a challenge. You’re right though, you don’t really notice it, do you?! I love the framing of the bm doing up the brides dress….your detail shots are great as always, and the lighting in the single shots of the bride??? Seriously? You are genious. They are stunning!!!

    Ok, HOW did I miss this post? These are awesome! Love the clean, fresh colours and all the emotions you captured in the day. And how cool are you to shoot INSIDE Emily Carr?
