John & Jess - Jess Getting Ready

I love the "getting ready" part of the wedding day - the air is filled with excitement & anticipation mixed with a little nervousness. I don't even mind getting told to wait or move out of the way since the preparation seems to take longer than expected, especially for the women.

It's good time to see all the little details - the colour of the lipstick, the beautiful hairpins that were carefully chosen to match the stunning dress. And I love seeing everyone around to help (or trying!) to make it all come together in time.

Steaming the dress!

Jillian & Derek - July 10, 2010

I love that I'm able to travel to Saskatchewan to photograph a wedding every year - sometimes twice!

This summer I was the lucky lady photographing Derek & Jillian in Swift Current. They are high school sweethearts and really, they are SUCH sweethearts. They made my job so easy!

I love this anticipation and excitement (and maybe a few nerves) while they are getting ready for the ceremony, and then the pure joy (and a little relief) when they are officially married!
