"I didn't fall in love with you...I JUMPED." Emotional Backyard Wedding in Sarnia, Ontario
We're going back in time to share this emotional and heartwarming backyard wedding that took place at the height of the pandemic in 2020. Ryan & Bethany endured many sudden changes to their original wedding plans, but stuck together and persevered through it all hand in hand. I was so inspired by their commitment to each other and to see their wedding unfold through all of the unknowns of lockdowns and restrictions. They made the decision to have their wedding in their own backyard, surrounded by their closest supporters (and Daisy the dog), in the exact place where Ryan proposed to Bethany a year earlier. It was such an honour to document this beautiful day and the beginning of their new life together. More than a year later, the joy and bliss of their wedding day can still be felt as if it were yesterday. Congratulations Ryan & Bethany!

Happiness is frolicking through the fields with you <3
A beautiful bride with her besties.
Just a beautiful bride hanging out with her best friends 💕 Spending the day with Charity and her bridesmaids was so much fun and I'm so happy to have captured their friendship and support for her on her wedding day. Having friends like these is truly a blessing! (Also Bailey the dog was a huge hit 🐶)

"I knew I was going to marry you" - Ryan & Bethany's Sneak Peek - Sarnia, Ontario
I'm so excited to begin sharing parts of Ryan & Bethany's wedding film. This was an intimate backyard micro wedding ceremony that completely took my breath away with their attention to detail and meaningful and personal vows. Ryan said in his vows, "I knew from the moment we met, locked eyes and shared our first kiss that I was going to marry you".
Surrounded by their parents and their wedding party (safely at a distance) they tied the knot and will be celebrating next year with a full reception with all of their guests!

3 Reasons To Have A Sunset Session
Here are 3 reasons to do a Sunset Session at your wedding!
1️⃣ Sneaking away during your reception to get those dreamy sunset shots is a fun way to "take a break" and have a quiet moment together.
2️⃣ The lighting is so dreamy and soft, and these shots can be a lot more romantic and intimate. It provides a beautiful contrast between the footage we capture during the day, and the footage we capture at night. (Think of these two sets of footage as "book ends" for your love story)
3️⃣ Did I mention the beautiful lighting???!

Who Is On Your Wedding Team?
So where are you at with your wedding planning? How are things going so far? Do you have everything booked and ready to go? Still thinking about some things?
A lot of people forget that a wedding is essentially a celebration. It's YOUR celebration and your family and friends are there to celebrate YOU and have a good time doing it. You see, sometimes people forget that we as humans need connection and shared experiences. We are communal creatures and the things that we remember 30 years from now are the good times we experience together.
But so often we focus on what *type* of flower we want in our bouquet over the type of human that will be creating that bouquet. We care more about the type of music over the actual person who will be facilitating the fun and the dancing. We care more about what the final product looks like over the experience we will actually have.
You want to have good people on your team. You want people that will care about who you are as a couple and will serve you. You want people who want to celebrate your love and help you create a fun experience for everyone!
This is why choosing your wedding vendors is SO important. Because you're not just choosing the beautiful details, you are choosing your PEOPLE. Your team. Your tribe.

Adam & Monica || Another Sneak Peak
I was so honoured to be invited to film this wedding! It's not something I take lightly - to be present for all those precious moments of such a special day. Weddings are all about people: lovers, family, friends, grandmas and grandpas, all gathering to witness the union of the two people they all have in common. It's a priviledge to be there and capture these moments for them <3
This was taken at the Gilmore Car Museum in Kalamazoo MI.
