Gabrielle & Neil Married in Collingwood

Gabrielle & Neil were married in Collingwood with their reception at Blue Mountain.
The day was beautiful and went off without a hitch. Gabrielle spent many nights with her mom planning all the intricate details of the wedding from the green slippers for the guests who's feet might ache, tiny bells to ring to get them to kiss to having their own martini to perfectly match the green decor. It was such a well planned event.
We had such a wonderful time. Thanks guys!

Here's a quick show from the day.























Cheers,
Kate & Andrew

Music for you

We are all about music at our house & studio. Our spaces are never quiet, as we always have music turned on in the back ground, Andrew playing piano or just plain singing tunes that we can't get out of our heads. So,I have included in this blog a cute little silver box on the left side called Last.FM. If you ever fell it's to quiet while viewing the blog just click on one of the songs and poof instant music. I hope you enjoy what we like to listen to.
Cheers,
Kate

Ken & Andrea Get Married at Blue

Ken & Andrea are two people who knew of each other in high school and met again more recently through friends and Facebook. Now they are at the time in there lives where they are perfectly matched for each other. There wedding was a smaller gathering of friends and family, very intimate and touching. The wedding was supposed to be an outdoor affair but the weather did not want to cooperate. We have to give the staff at Blue a hand at getting everything organized so fast.



















Cheers,

Kate & Andrew

Ken & Anja Married in the Black Forest.

Our friends Ken & Anja came to visit us in August of last year. We took them on a whirlwind tour of the area and around Christmas time they emailed to tell us the great news that they were getting married. They asked if we would come to Germany to photograph their wedding? So after figuring out all of the many details we graciously accepted.
Weddings in Germany can be very different from Canada. For starters the bride and groom have a town hall ceremony in the morning, this comes with blessings from the mayor and local officials. Later they prepare for an afternoon ceremony which takes place in the church. The bride and groom walk up the isle together behind the minister. (slight break from tradition here) Following the ceremony they greet their guests with some champagne and perform a log cutting ceremony where balloons are released into the air.
We photographed for about two hours with the Black Forest as our backdrop. So many great photo possibilities! After shooting we were off to the reception which finished pretty much when everybody was ready for breakfast.
Ken & Anja chose a great spot to be married and it was what every wedding should be; intimate, relaxing and fun. We were honored to be a part of their day. Here are some photos for you to enjoy.
