Katy and Ben's wedding

Sorry for getting behind, but as everyone probably knows by now, this year I am insanely swamped with weddings, engagements and just about every other type of photography!

Here are so photos from Katy and Ben's wedding a few weeks ago.
Their reception was at the beautiful CedarHill Golf and Country Club and we had tons of fun!

No flash photography, but everyone else was cheating and using flash...

2nd half of the Rockcliffe Park weekend, Grace and Stefan

Here are some of my favourite images from this year's season so far. I knew Grace wanted some creative images that she would cherish forever and I am pleased with the result.

Everything was beautiful from the colour scheme to venue and decorations. I can't wait to show them the rest of their photos because there were tons of really incredible shots.
When Grace found a few on my website, she sent this email to me:

"Hey Mel, Just wanted to let you know that I looked at the couple on the website and OMG are they ever gorgeous. I am soooo thrilled and can`t wait to see the rest. I`m going to be home next Friday so I can`t wait to look through them.

Thanks for everything and I think my caterer is going to like the pic you took of the food. You did a great job and I will highly recommend you and will be using your services again for our family pics each year :) Grace"

..And that's what makes my job so rewarding when people take the time to tell you that they loved their photos and think you did a great job in capturing the day!
