Melissa & Blair

When we first chatted with Melissa about her July 7th wedding, we had no idea that 7/7/7 would be the date of the year.  All we knew was that this incredibly sweet gal wanted us to be her photographers.  We were honoured by her grace then and we remain so today.  Melissa and her family are truly some of the most wonderful people we have ever met.  Once they decided that we were the photographers for them, they literally entrusted us with that entire portion of the day, never second guessing or questioning what we might do. 

Melissa is so adorable - she has the tiniest little feet and just the loveliest way about her.  Blair is also amazing - he is so solicitous of Melissa caring for her every need before she even realizes it.  Together they are going to be unstoppable in the years to come.  Melissa warned us that neither of them like being photographed, yet by the end of the day, Melissa was working it like a super model.  She threw all her fears away and trusted that she was beautiful.  It was unbelievable to witness and we feel so fortunate to have been part of that.  

You may remember this couple from a previous blog post:  Melissa and Blair are the Vancouver couple with the dog. 

We knew the wedding would be spectacular with the incredible teams at Upright Decor and Bouquet Floral in charge of things.  The Terminal City Club pulled out all the stops and the wedding was spectacular.

There were so many images that I could post from this wedding, but I'll limit it to just a few for now.

We started the day with a trip to a local barber shop for a shave

 This "vintage" wedding calls for some vintage processing

It was so windy that day and Melissa's veil was out of control all day long

We finished the session on a vintage bus

There are so many amazing detail images that I should be posting, but I loved the images from their first dance, so I'm putting that one first.  It's my blog, darn it!
