A few weeks ago I hit the road for a trip to Morris on a hot Saturday morning for Britney and Kevin’s wedding.  It was such a beautiful day and so many things happened just the way I like them!  Britney and Kevin arranged to have a “first look” before the wedding ceremony meaning we got to spend hours together taking pictures before we had to be anywhere.  I got into the truck with Britney and Kevin and we hit the road to the country side to find some locations they had previously scouted.  It was such a dream to just drive around together and stop anywhere we felt like, plus Britney and Kevin had the chance to spend a couple hours together enjoying each other’s company without any hustle and bustle and busyness of the a wedding day around them.

After all the pictures everyone head out to Rosenort for the wedding ceremony.  I love ceremonies that bring out laughter and emotions and this one sure did!  There were a few laughs when Britney had to re-start her vows after getting a little flustered and there was also such a special moment when the pastors wife came up to pray for Britney and Kevin.  She prayed for a hedge of protection around their marriage and you could literally feel the love surrounding them in the room at that moment as all these people prayed for blessings upon the two of them.  It was a moment I won’t forget anytime soon!

So this is the first part of our day together….much more fun with the wedding party to come next week!  I had so much that I had to split this up!

You might not recognize this little 8 month old sweetie and that’s because she’s grown oh so much since the first time we saw her on the blog!  Addison was just a tiny newborn the first time we saw her on the blog and she has changed so much since then!  Now she has those adorable baby rolls, chubby cheeks, gorgeous eyes and eye lashes and lots and lots of GIGGLES!  We had a gorgeous July afternoon to tour around her parents farm and find some fun places to photograph her and her parents.  I was VERY excited to see what Addison’s mom had picked out for wardrobe for the shoot, and I was not disappointed check out how well dressed and accessorized she was for the shoot!

On to the photos!!

I love these next two they just remind me of a child/baby’s love for their blanket :)

Look at all these giggles coming up! LOVE!!

And some family shots to finish things off!  What a great afternoon we had!!

♥ Giggling Girls

What a week!  I had planned on getting so much blogging done and this post should have been up on Monday BUT my computer had other ideas!  By Tuesday my baby was at the Apple store getting some TLC and there was no blogging going on!  Finally my laptop is back at home so lets get to it!!

It’s not an exaggeration to say that I was waiting for my summertime shoot with these 3 little ladies all year long.  Their mom always comes up with the most inspired ideas and this year was no exception!  It’s SO much fun to photograph these sweet little girls, sometimes I tell them “Don’t look at me!  Look at your sisters!” and they look at each other and spontaneously burst into a fit of giggles….I LOVE IT!  They have such a special relationship and I love to see how the littlest sister Emily just ADORES her big sisters….anytime she gets the chance she cuddles right up to her sisters.  They have grown up SO much since our first shoot together and I can’t wait to continue to watch them grow.

I had so much fun with you girls!!!  Can’t wait for next year!!!  Susanne….I hope I captured your vision just as you had imagined!  I adore you just as much as your girls :)  Thanks for your continued support and encouragement!

Enough gushing…on to the photos….I dare you to look at them without a smile on your face!! :D

And one of my favorite sequences to finish things off!

Last weekend I was out in my hometown of Winkler to shoot Kevin and Rebecca’s wedding.  All week the forecast changed back and forth – rain, no rain, rain, no rain – but the morning of the wedding we all woke up to beautiful, sunny blue skies!  The day was so relaxed and fun!  I got to spend lots of time with just the bride and groom (my favourite) and then the wedding party joined us later in the day and they brought along lots of laughter (also my favourite).

Becs and Kevin – I am so happy for you two!  Thank-you so much for choosing me to be a part of your wedding day, it was such an honour(and so much FUN)!  Becs – I have so many memories with you and I’m so happy to add this one to the memory bank!  You were such a beautiful bride!

While Rebecca was getting ready Kevin showed up to pick up some forgotten items, Becs made him turn around and she promptly hid behind  chair. :)
