Niagara on the Lake Bridal Shower | Pillar and Post

Typically, as the weather starts to warm up the birds start chirping, the flowers start to slowly blossom, and bridal Shower season begins. Sadly, with the changes in the world things will progress much more cautiously and may be more likely to happen online than in person. Between the welcoming of Spring and celebration of soon-to-be Mrs, the energy and laughter that fills the room is what we are missing most over here. Surely, the event industry has changed greatly these past twelve months, and we may feel these changes for some time to come, but we know that the bride-to-be will still be able to feel the love and excitement from friends and family by hosting something virtually!

Chateau Des Charmes Wedding

Kim's something borrowed: her adorable grandmother lent her, her handmade handkerchief that she used at her wedding. And also dates back before that to 1912. To keep track of all the people who have had the pleasure of holding it on their wedding day, she keeps a little list and brings it with her to all the weddings.

Niagara on the Lake Rehearsal Dinner | Ravine Vineyard

The night before the wedding, after the wedding rehearsal with the immediate family and wedding party, everyone heads to a restaurant (in this case Ravine Vineyard), shares a lovely meal, drinks and always a great time. We are so happy when asked to tag along to rehearsals because we get to meet SO many of the wedding guests prior to the wedding day, as these affairs are usually include about two thirds of the wedding guests, if not more.

It almost gives us an advantage to telling the story of the wedding the next day, because we know more about their lives, and the people who have come together to celebrate it.

Niagara on the Lake Elopement | The Charles Inn

The Charles Inn. This is one of my favourite places here in Niagara on the Lake. It is such a beautiful restaurant and Inn. It has so much charm and character it reminds me of being back in Italy.

I went early to capture Steve and Michelle's cocktail hour, after they were wed at a local chapel just to photograph some of the details of the building. They arrived and were met with about 15 of their closest friends and family to enjoy cocktails on the veranda, followed by what I can only imagine to have been a spectacular meal.

Private Niagara Wedding

It is quite an honour when you are trusted to photograph someone's wedding. Whether you are initially complete strangers, or best friends, to be given that right should not go unnoticed.

Niagara on the Lake Tea Ceremony | Queen's Landing

A lot of people do not know this about me, but I am actually a pretty traditional person. I love traditions and rituals, and am very excited to start some of my own, with my new little family of three this year (5 if you count the pups!).

I was so excited to hear from Jane (again, I was not available for her wedding as I was booked), when she inquired about me capturing the Tea Ceremony between her and Scott and their immediate family the day following their wedding.

Liuna Station Wedding

Tracy + Chris had a really gorgeous wedding at Liuna Station last July, filled with a lot of great vendors (see below). Today we are celebrating their anniversary by finally getting around to posting all these beautiful images from their day!

Niagara Elopement Photographer | Riverbend Inn + Vineyard

Sofie + Justin had an intimate elopement in Niagara on the Lake, at Riverbend Inn. It was just very close family and friends, as the couple were both not from the area. Sofie is from Sweden, and originally Justin from the US. It was a pleasure to be part of their brief time here in Niagara.
