This year I spent part of my August long weekend with Nikki and Daxton. Based in Ottawa, Nikki wanted to give guests who had travelled here venues in locations with views so she chose the First United Church, just a stone's throw from White Rock Beach, and Horizons Restaurant up on Burnaby Mountain.
I started with Nikki and the girls at her Mom's house in Surrey just in time to take shots of her dress and shoes. Nikki was quite stoked with her cool shoes which she had picked up in Montreal before she'd even found her dress!
Nikki went for a classic look which totally suited her. LOVE the veil!
Susannah met up with the guys at White Rock Beach.....
Here's Nikki, ready to rock!
This is one of my favourite shots - Nikki looking out the limo window just before we arrived at the church.
Here's Daxton as he sees Nikki enter the church....
Nikki and Pete....
This is the moment just after the kiss when our happy couple have just been declared married. It's so intimate.....
After the ceremony we went to Crescent Beach for photos. It was so hot and so packed it was unbelievable. There were like 100,000 people wandering behind the group during the shoot and the beach behind them was also packed. These guys were great though - so patient.
Great couple....
Yes, of course I found a rock or two....
And some dried grass - my great summer love.
After the beach we drove up to Horizons on Burnaby Mountain. The totem poles up there are very cool...
After the group had gone we did a few more shots of Nikki and Daxton on their own. This is one of my favs....
We stayed for just the beginning of the reception and then left the group to party the night away.
All the best - it was great to meet you both!
