Rock the Dress sessions (aka trash the dress) are a fantastic way to get smoldering, sexy, sweet & overall gorgeous photos of you & your new husband. Rock the Dress sessions are shot in the very early morning, when the light is soft & airy and the beaches are quiet and private. These are, hands down my favorite sessions to shoot! Everyone is relaxed (no wedding day stress or timeline), creative vibes are going and the light is always beautiful. With Sarah being an Edmonton photographer herself, it is ALWAYS an honor to be chosen as a photographer’s wedding photographer. Wedding photographers having a discerning eye & know what they are after. It was so flattering that my work was what they were after (no pressure …)

I LOVED photographing sarah & ben’s rock the dress shoot and think that the resulting efforts from their amazing good looks & my creative hyper vibe (wasn’t I hyper you guys?!) are breathtaking. Sarah, you and seriously a knock out & Ben, you are a handsome dude.

Sarah & Ben.

She has a firey energy, mixed with sweet & he is calm and athletic. Together they are high energy, spunky and down to earth all rolled into one.

Sarah was able to get ready in her large lovely suite at the Sirenis resort, as the beautiful warm light shone in through the windows.

The romantic & private ceremony felt like one where you would be watching celebrities wed. It was on the sandy & rocky shore, far away from anyone else ….. The resort has 2 wedding location sites & theirs was such a romantic location. It felt like they were the only couple being married in the world. Tears were shed as “i do’s” were said, complimented by a warm mexican breeze.

The reception was intimate & darling with glowy light bouncing around everywhere. I have never seen more sincere toasts or more tears shed. The love in the room literally bounced around. You couldn’t not feel good in that room.

Sarah & Ben. It was our honor to photograph your romantic, intimate, incredibly heartfelt wedding on the scenic beaches of mexico. Enjoy your sneak peek!

Rock the dress session to come soon! (check back, it’s a stunner!!!!!)

These two planned the most relaxed, fun and charming wedding at the amazing Barcelo resort in Los Cabos, Mexico. This is a fantastic resort if you are looking to have a destination wedding!
These two are so sweet together. Him sarcastic, sweet and thoughtful…her adorable, bubbly and fun. Together they are the kind of couple that everyone wants to be friends with. They had so many adorable touches to their weddings days. Oprah says that love is in the details, and as you look through this wedding, you cannot help but agree. From their thoughtful gifts to each other, to the lovely fans for their hot wedding guests, to the celebration of a balloon toss……
It was such a joy to be flown to Mexico to photograph their wedding. A few of the bridesmaids were huge Eternal Reflections fans & made me feel like such a rock star. Until my face was coated in sweat & my hair started to frizz. Then I just felt super lame… but that is how nice they all were, they still acted like I was a rockstar. Such nice people! I loved them all! It was a wedding that I will always remember.
Coming in the next day or two, the amazing Rock the Dress session!! (aka: Trash the Dress…except we don’t trash the dress…we keep it classy & romantic)
Enjoy your sneak peek!

Italy is like nothing I have ever seen before. It is one of the most beautiful places on earth, which is why Meghan and  Mike decided to have their beautiful wedding at a Villa in the Tuscany hills just outside of Siena.
Their wedding could not have been more perfect.
They opted to have their ceremony as the sun was setting, which allowed for beautiful lighting. The Italian tuscan sun is gorgeous, and every photographers dream!
This wedding was romantic, chic and delicate. Each and every detail was planned out perfectly- even with a childhood picture of Mike on Meghans bouquet.
Italy is becoming more and more popular for destination weddings. Its rustic charm is pulling brides from all over the world to celebrate their love.

Congratulation Meg & Mike.
May you have many wonderful years of bliss…

The beautiful Villa that Meg and Mike (plus all the guests) stayed at.

Isn’t it breathtaking?

Meg and Mike wrote thank you cards to all their guests on the back of cute Italian post cards.Her GORG-eous dress.

I Love that Mikes suit was made in Italy. Gotta love Armani!

The colors in her bouquet and in his boutineer matched the Villa perfectly.

Meg rocked a beautiful high fashion ‘vogue-y’ veil!

They are such a beautiful couple!

The famous Tuscany view (no, really it is famous- its on post cards!!) where Meg had her ceremony.

Mike vows were so heartfelt. I think it brought tears to everyone, especially Meg.

Proud parents.

Cute details pre-reception.  Meg made her Italian wedding very memorable.

The lovely tablescape.

The Alfresco dining was a perfect ending to perfect wedding.

Her bouquet with the childhood photo of Mike.

Meg had two looks for her wedding. So we decided to make the most of the delicious sunlight and get a few more of her and Mike

Meg workin’ the hot red lips and birdcage veil!

The grapevines in Italy are a perfect backdrop for any wedding photo!
