Sometimes mother nature is on team Kim !

This post is overdue but here it goes …

I’ve got to be honest with ya … having a wedding at the end of October made me a bit nervous about the weather and what kind of elements it was going to throw our way. WOW – I really need to have a bit more faith in mother nature because she REALLY REALLY came through for me big time for Cara and Andre’s wedding on October 25th. Their ceremony was at St. Patricks, so I knew we’d be safe inside there in case it was monsoon like outside. However, it turns out that the wedding on October 25th had some of the best weather I saw all Summer ! It was incredible. It helped that we weren’t to start taking photos until around 3:30 and the light was a delish golden hue by that point. It was cold, but damn it was such a beautiful sunny and perfect day. I couldn’t get over how perfect the lighting was. I wanted to take advantage of this fabulous lighting and snap photos like they were going out of style ! Everything looked amazing in this light and I was working so fast to get in as many excellent shots as I could. I have pasted some of their images below. Before I move on, I just have to say how honoured I was to work with Cara and Andre. Cara and I have developed a really great friendship since she first contacted me about doing her wedding. We really hit it off and I am truly happy to have had our paths cross. She is not only incredibly stunning (just wait till you see the pics!) but she is also incredibly thoughtful, down-to-earth and so happy and positive that you can’t help but love being in her presence. I could go on and on about her because I think she is truly fabulous …. but instead I will leave you with these pics of her and her amazing husband Andre.

On a completely different but totally related note – I have to get the word out …. Bella Fiore does awesome creative floral design for all your wedding flower needs !!! Sarina, who is the owner of the company is a wonderfully sweet woman and is incredibly talented and gifted. She also happened to do Andre and Cara’s flowers which you can see below 🙂 Their flowers were fabulously unique! They even had done centre pieces which had the bouquets arranged in pumpkins which I just loved – too cute ! Cara’s bouquet was just stunning and the bridesmaids bouquets were equally impressive. I just wanted to get the word out and support a fellow entrepreneur with her amazing business. Please check out her website: http://www.bellafiorefloraldesign.com and her number is 250-516-7444 if you would like to discuss what kind of services she could provide for you.

Hi Kim!

WOW!!! These pictures look amazing, congratulations, what a great job. Looking at your pictures I see the bride and the groom “breathing” LOVE (with capital letters). I did not know that someone could ever capture that feeling is the way you did! Not only had you caught the feelings and vibrations between the happy couple, but also the environment, looks and posses. Most definitely you were born to do this job. Way to go Kim!

Big hug,

Mercedes
