Amy and Nathan – Sneak Peek {Miramichi NB Photographer}

Last weekend, I had the pleasure of meeting up with Amy and Nathan (and their pooch Hayley) for some engagement photos. They are getting married this October, so I knew the engagement photos would be a great warm-up to the big day. Amy told me that they aren’t photogenic at all, and that she hoped I could make them look awesome. I know you didn’t sleep much the night before Amy but you worried for nothing. You guys look FABULOUS. I think you’re both very natural in front of the camera, actually – your chemistry is definitely easy to see. You guys definitely made me laugh too (a lot), so I can’t wait for the wedding – I can tell we’re going to have a blast that day.

Here are some of my favourites so far… hope you enjoy

I really enjoyed working with you both (and Hayley too) …. I look forward to showing you the rest!

Kayla and Mert – The Language of Love – Sneak Peek {Miramichi NB Wedding Photographer}

Pin It

Ah…. wedding season has begun! And it got started with a bang with Kayla and Mert’s gorgeous wedding last weekend. It threatened rain all afternoon, but we only got a few drops. The cold and dreary skies certainly didn’t dampen anyone’s mood though

I am always amazed by the differences in each one of the weddings I’ve photographed. While they all have similarities, each has their own uniqueness about it. Following the ceremony, we headed out immediately for photos of the happy newlyweds and the bridal party. We had a few locations in mind – but it’s the third one that really made this wedding special. Locals will appreciate this I’m sure…. the entire bridal party had photos taken at the Black Horse Tavern. They used to spend a lot of time there hanging out years ago, so it was only fitting that they relax there for a bit before their reception. I’m not sure when the last time a bridal party had their photos done sitting on the bar there, but it was so much fun.

While Kayla is from Miramichi, her husband Mert is originally from Turkey – but they met in Halifax. While they came from completely different cultures, something brought these two together… and the result was a wedding day full of love and happiness. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a groom so anxious to kiss his bride during the ceremony. Once the dance started, everyone let loose – and you can see from the photos that fun was definitely had by all. They even had a belly dancer, which is Turkish tradition.

These lovebirds are on their honeymoon somewhere nice and warm (unlike their wedding day), but I know they’re anxiously awaiting some photos from their big day. So without further adieu, here are some of my favourites so far:

Kayla and Mert – it was a pleasure being your wedding photographer! I hope you enjoy these photos, as you and Mert relax in the sun in Mexico

Faye, these are perfect! Kayla and Mert are one of the best couples I know. You captured the day, and most importantly, the love, beautifully!

Macro Mondays – Inspiration – Week 10 {Miramichi NB Photographer} {Personal Project}

Pin It

Has it been 2 weeks already?! I was hoping for something more from nature this week, but was instead inspired to use a ring shot from this weekend’s past wedding. I took this shot in the most unusual of locations, too…. on a table in a local drinking establishment – but you’ll have to wait for the full sneak peek from Kayla and Mert’s wedding to hear about that one. In the meantime, here are their stunning rings…

My 3 photographer friends are all posting this week – and as usual, I know they won’t disappoint. First up is Denean Melcher – you’ll find her post here.

Macro Mondays – Inspiration – Week #9 {Miramichi NB Photographer}

Pin It

For this week’s macro post, I chose to use some close-ups of a gorgeous engagement ring, from a recent engagement session (see here). I showcased 2 photos of it with that post …. well here’s two more. I love how mixing it up with the old broken glass gives it such a different feel than my typical ring shots.

Next up is my amazingly talented friend Denean Melcher… seriously, the girl needs to start selling some of her macro work. If you haven’t checked out her stuff you really should, it’s awesome. That goes for Cathy and Stacy too… This group I’m in has some serious talent!!

The Hutt Family – Sneak Peek {Miramichi NB Family Photographer}

Pin It

I first met this adorable family back in the fall. Ella was only 9 months then (you’ll find that post here)…. fast forward to last weekend, and the nearly 16 month old Ella and her parents were enjoying some springtime sunshine on the beach. It was pretty chilly the last time we were out, so this was definitely a welcome change! I love watching kids grow up from behind my lens…. and I noticed so many changes in Ella. Obviously she’s grown, but she’s walking, and has so much more hair now (look at those piggies!). She was pretty serious for the most part, but we did manage to get a few smiles out of her. Here are some of my favourites from our session together:
