Vanessa & Paul : Wedding

David — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 03:19:58 +0000

I have known Vanessa for the better part of 12 years – went to high school with her and then later we both attended St. Francis Xavier University. Needless to say, when she asked if I was available to do her wedding I was absolutely floored and honoured. I just met Paul recently, but can already see that Vanessa and Paul are absolutely perfect for each other. I loved Vanessa’s dress and overall look on her wedding day – to me it screamed classic beauty and I think you’ll agree! Paul was a true gentleman and made us crack up the whole day which makes the photo sessions so much fun – aka – the best job in the world.

Billy & Melissa : Wedding

David — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 03:09:45 +0000

We had amazing weather for Billy and Melissa’s Glace Bay wedding. I really love shooting in my home town because weddings here are such a party and everything is very chilled and enjoyable. Billy and Melissa’s wedding was no exception. St. John’s church was filled with the most beautiful light ( I really love shooting ceremonies there) and Billy and Melissa had a heartfelt ceremony.

Most of the photography for the day was taken at Queen Elizabeth Park and Big Glace Bay Beach over in Donkin. We created some really striking shots for Billy and Melissa over at the beach. They took my suggestion to sneak away from the supper as soon as it was over to take advantage of the beautiful dropping sunlight which is the most flattering and enjoyable light to shoot in. Thanks so much for inviting us along on your wedding day, I hope you receive these images well!

Christina & Brad – Wedding – With Video!

David — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 01:48:48 +0000

9 hours of road tripping and we land in a magical little place called St. Andrew’s By The Sea. This is a little town out of a fairy tale – I couldn’t believe the main street; it was so small, so busy and so full of life. I can’t wait to head back! We shot Christina and Brad’s wedding in St. Andrew’s at the Fairmont Algonquin. This is the same resort that Steven King stayed at and in turn inspired him to write The Shining. Win.

I knew Christina for a few years now; she was one of the only people who would stand in front of my brand new Rebel XTi when I first started taking images. We did so many photo shoots together and because of her I was able to get out and practise & shoot, practise & shoot, practise & shoot. Thank you Christina, you were the biggest help for me when I first started and I will never forget that. Brad your pretty awesome too! LOL

This very first video clip is my first wedding related video since I started my business and was shot by the very talented Sean McGrath out of Saint John. Sean is a very talented web developer, photographer, musician and friend. He is also working on my brand new website which should go live any day now. Thanks Sean, coming down to St. Andrew’s with us and filming this means so much to me; I appreciate your time and your talents. Visit Sean online at seanmcgrath.ca

Trina & Greg – Wedding

David — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 02:01:30 +0000

This wedding was the ultimate party – Newfoundland seriously threw an AMAZING party – haven’t seen anything like it in Cape Breton. As a Bride and Groom, Trina and Greg were so much fun, relaxed and just looking to make their day a very fun and memorable one. Because of this, we had so many great photo sessions all over Port Aux Basques and I think their good nature shows through in these images. You can see Trina and Greg’s Whackybooth here

This is 9 a.m. in Port Aux Basques – for reals

Trina and Greg’s adorable little boy Cohen was being received during the wedding ceremony

Greg see’s Trina for the first time!

We found this amazing field close by the reception hall and rocked some photos during the golden hour – I love how warm this photo is

Thanks so much Trina and Greg……………………we will be back!

Lara & Ryan – Wedding

David — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 04:28:34 +0000

Its such a pleasure to shoot people who are genuinely happy – the results are always exciting, real and give ya a big ol’ smile; Ryan and Lara did this to me. Lara was the most relaxed, fun loving Bride ever and Ryan was a pure gentleman. I was honoured to be a part of their wedding day.

Ashley & Jason : Wedding

Meet Ashley and Jason. I had a great time with them last Saturday when they tied the knot! Check out some of the images we captured for them:

Maria & Roy : Wedding

David — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 17:03:41 +0000

We flew our way up to Ottawa to shoot Maria and Roy’s wedding. We had a killer time with them and all their wedding guests. Doing all of the photographs before the ceremony was a welcomed change; most people in Cape Breton stick to tradition and refuse to see each other before the ceremony. I will say this, everyone getting ready together and spending the day doing photography, laughing all around the city was much more intimate and close than the traditional way (just my two cents!)

Wedding ceremony and reception was held at the beautiful Courtyard Restaurant

Here is a little slice in Maria and Roy’s life on that day:
