Kim and Sean - the Wedding

Warning - picture overload!

Choosing my favourites from a wedding to put on my blog is HARD! I got so many wonderful shots of Kim and Sean - who basically told me to go wild and do whatever I like creatively - THANK YOU!

But first, because Kim's mom asked so nicely, I promised I would get a standard formal picture of the two of them. Aren't they gorgeous?! This one is from the end of the day, just in between the wild storms we had that weekend.

Back to the beginning of the day.

Kim had her hair and make up done at her cousin's salon - excellent place for getting ready - lots of room for everyone to move and no fighting over mirrors. These three are her cousins (and best girls).Beautiful dress.
Meanwhile, my friend Amy who was second shooting with me (thanks Amy) got pictures of the boys getting ready.

Kim and Sean were married at Convocation Hall at the U of A. Its a gorgeous space, and it was great having Amy along, so she could get shots from the balcony (like these), while I got shots from the isle.


They're married!

We headed outside for the family formals, and Amy captured some great candid shots.


We were in danger of making all the photos about this cutest flower girl, ever! I had to force myself to stop taking pictures of her.


Then, off for the bridal party pictures.

I drove past our green graffiti wall the other day, and its GONE! (I have issues with this no-graffiti rule in this city.) Luckily there is a cool wall outside the International Centre at the U of A.



Sexy!

It was 30C for Kim and Sean's wedding day, and their best people were amazing. We dragged everyone around campus, made the boys dance, jump and climb fire escapes; then headed over to the Legislature grounds (to get to the 109 St Bridge), and I did not hear a single complaint. Thanks guys!


Off to the reception at St. John's Cultural Centre. The food and service were amazing, and its a beautiful space. (OMG! As I was checking out the site to get the link, I see they have take-out perogies. And they are the real kind of perogies, with real cheese. Not tub cottage cheese. Yum. Book your wedding there!)
Sorry for that aside. I love perogies.
Back to the wedding.
Kim and Sean's friends are so much fun. Moonwalking to see a kiss.
Best reception kissing picture ever!

I took Kim and Sean outside for a few minutes after supper. So glad I did!


Thank you Kim and Sean for asking me to document your wedding day. I feel so privileged to do what I do and was honoured to share this day with you.
