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.

Loved Shannon’s dress!
The ladies help Shannon into her dress
Shannon’s beautiful jewelry. The locket contains her great grandparents, which she carried with her bouquet all day.
Shannon and this wall had a serious thing going!
Shannon’s other shoes… I loved them!
Meanwhile, my second Kristel was with the boys grabbing these awesome shots!
Shannon and Jesse chose to do a reveal before the ceremony… it was my first time and I loved it!
The other angle from Kristel…
Portraits IN Emily Car? Yes please!
Loved the architecture in there!
The hotness!
This bouquet was just gorgeous!
I love it when times stands still…
Ceremony time at the Pacific Palisades!
The reception was held at Coal Harbour Community Center…. loved their pink and green colour scheme!
I never get tired of cupcakes… especially the miniature variety!
SO many cute kiddos at their reception!
We snuck out for some secret portraits…
I *love* these shots of Shannon!
First dances always make my heart squeeze…
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!

Michele Dyson - 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.

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!!!
laurahana - 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?
Arielle - You are so so good Amber!
