Kate & Josh - June 13, 2009

It's been a busy month for Kate and Josh.  Kate graduated from med school, they moved back from Alberta, and they got married!

I got to Kate's house in time to take pictures of her dress and shoes before she dressed...

Here are a few of detail shots of Kate getting ready.  Doing up the dress....

Kate playing with her engagement ring - on the other hand for the ceremony....

Kate and Josh were married at the Eagle Ridge United Church.  Simply decorated with beautiful sunflowers by Larissa Meade from Bridal Beginnings, it looked great....

Here's Kate and Josh's first moment of being a Mr and Mrs, just after coming back down the aisle....

After the ceremony, we went down to the river to take some family and bridal party shots.  Here are the guys.  Little Colton is so cool!

There was some really nice light coming through the trees....

Here's Kate, looking stunning....

And an intimate shot of the two of them....

I really loved shooting at the river because it is a place Kate and Josh go to often.  I think it's important to have wedding photos in an environment which has personal meaning.  Those photos will bring stronger memories as time goes on. 

Kate told me about the yellow flowers here and I thought they were wonderful!

Next we headed out to Whonnock Lake Center for their reception.  We got a few quick shots with the classic limos before they left....

And then had fun on the dock.  Here's a shot of the girls....

And one of our happy couple walking back towards the Center at the end of the shoot....

As they support different hockey teams, they entered their reception to "Hockey Night in Canada" and then had a face off.  Luckily they both won as there were two pucks....

Lots of fun and laughter later, here is a shot from their first dance....

Congratulations Kate and Josh - it was our pleasure working with you and we wish you all the best in your future together!
