nate & maja's wedding

Here's a go at my first photo blot post.  It's daunting, and it's taking a lot longer than I had anticipated it being!  But I'm gonna make it!

I had the privilege of photographing Nate and Maja's beautiful wedding a few weeks ago.  I've known Nate since we were 5 years old, so it was really special to do this wedding.  Who would've known back then that 20 years later, I'd be taking pictures of him and his bride!

They got married in a beautiful Danish church in Burnaby.  It had tall, rounded ceilings, beautiful window light, and even model ships hanging from the ceiling next to the chandeliers!

             

After the ceremony, we took a few pictures of the bridal party and both sides of the families in front of the church and then drove to a nearby park for some more photos.  The girls were very cooperative in their high heels and dresses and were even willing to climb up a big rock to pose for my ideas.  The guys didn't have it so hard (pants are more forgiving!) but were just as cooperative!

Here they are doing their "jazz hands!"

 

Here are a few more of my favorites from the day

Look at how cute the bridesmaids' shoes are!!  Maja picked really great details for their wedding.  

She was dazzling in a beautiful dress and feather accent in her hair.

Thank you, Nate and Maja, for allowing me to be a part of your special day.  I wish you all the best and years and years of happiness and love together.  

P.S.  Now I just have to figure out how to get the best image quality for blogging!
