Red Photo Co….the blog

Last weekend was my first double header wedding weekend of 2009 and Sunday was spent with the always lovely and laughing Eric & Rebekah. I knew when I met them for their engagement session that they were going to be so much fun and extremely easy to work with, not to mention the crazy chemistry between these two, which makes my job that much easier! The weather was a little less hot than Saturday (thankfully) and the cloud cover really makes for some amazing colours...see for yourself. Hope you're having a blast in Cuba lovebirds!

Rebekah's friend was in Thailand and couldn't make it to the wedding in person..but was there via Skype!

Karin (left) was one of my 2007 brides and it was so nice to see her again..here the girls found something very funny (maybe it was how very behind schedule they were? lol)

They did their photos before the ceremony, which is always a nice change and gives us plenty of time alone..yay! It's a long day...don't forget to eat!

LOVE these next 4! teehee!

Rebekah's parents were missionaries for years and the centerpieces were all treasures that her mom had collected in their travels...

Pineridge Hollow is always a fantastic venue for summer weddings!

running through the arch of love!

so lovely!

photo fun at the reception...

first dance...fantastic!

they had little programs for the reception with a crossword of important places and memories inside...of course it was going to be in the ring shot!

Last Saturday was an absolutely amazing day spent with the very lovely Erin, David and their darling son Xavier at Terrace Fifty-Five in Assiniboine Park for their super sweet wedding day. I love intimate weddings with less than 100 guests because you feel like you really get to know everyone through the course of the day and so much is centered around the couple and their love rather than the spectacle that a wedding day can sometimes become. Don't get me wrong, I love big weddings too but it's nice to start off the season with some smaller weddings to give you a nice warm fuzzy feeling inside that gets you ready for the big ones ahead! I cannot say enough about the amazing Terrace Fifty-Five! From the staff (hi Jessica! ) to the food (so delicious!) to the very helpful Charlene (who does an amazing job as catering director), this venue has got to be one of my very favorite to shoot at! If you are still looking for a venue to host your reception, don't hesitate to contact them at 204.938.7275 or via email at terracatering@wowhospitality.com
