After the ceremony, our lovely photographers whisked us away to a few different locations to grab some snaps of the two of us. It was so nice to get away and spend some time together and we had a lot of fun shooting - even if we did need to loosen up. What's below is a small portion of what we got. If you are planning a wedding and trying to decide whether to do the portraits - do them. They are a few of my favourite shots from the day.
THE SHED
THE VINEYARD
THE PRODUCE STAND
Just as we finished up at the vegetable cart and got back in the car, the sky opened up and the rain started to fall. It rained harder in those 30 minutes than it had all summer. Luckily, we were safe in a car while our poor guests at the reception jumped into action and moved everything indoors according to our rain plan.
We arrived, killed sometime doing a couple shots on the front porch and then glamourously waited inside until the rain died down. Although I would have loved to have the reception outdoors, I couldn't be happier that we got perfectly timed, good luck rain. Any earlier, our ceremony and photos would have been ruined, any later and dinner would have been soggy. Gotta love it when mother nature is considerate.
THE HOMESTEAD
As part of the amazing package provided by our wonderful photographers, Jack and I got to do an engagement photo shoot. Not only was it fun to get some photos of us as a couple but this allowed our photographers to get to know us, our angles and how we react with a camera in our face. We had SO MUCH FUN shooting with Chelle, Cherakee and Adam and just know our wedding photos will be amazing!
We will eventually put a big bunch up on our wedding website but for now, enjoy the hand full [or perhaps, fist full... okay, I got excited - bucket full] I shared below.
