Emily & Colin - During

The front yard of Emily's parents' farmhouse was the ideal setting for this wedding. The weather was perfect... well, it was perfect for the guests who were in the shade.  The bride and groom were standing in the bright sun. The guests brought bells to ring to celebrate the happy couple. The groom's sister in law read an adorable story about two little dinosaurs.  Sweet.

Emily & Colin - Before

Emily and Colin are sweet, humble and full of laughter.  Their wedding ceremony was a most casual affair held on the front lawn at her parents' farm.

For this wedding I had the help of a wonderful photographer, Angela Stone Butterworth, who you may remember from when she was a beautiful bride bride herself. Thanks Ange, your work is beautiful!

Cobden Fair

My hometown has a population of one thousand.  Every year at the end of summer there is the Cobden Fair. Horses, cattle, sheep, exhibits, fair food, rides and cotton candy. Perfect.

Other than weddings, I haven't been asked to do a lot of event photography but when I was asked to photograph the Cobden Fair so that the Agricultural Society could have some pictures for promotional use, I had to say yes.

Please enjoy just a few of my favourite images.

Nicola & Dave Part IV

And finally... the party!

Nicola & Dave Part III

The rain after the ceremony didn't dampen anyone's spirits. Afterall, it's almost impossible to untie a wet knot.
