I met Jessica and Robert back in the early spring. Little did I know we already had friends in common, I actually think now, that I could have possibly met Robert back about 7 years ago, when he happened to be visiting his good friends in the valley, funny how things happen! From the moment I met Jessica and Robert, I knew they were a special couple. Jessica was just finishing her degree, and Robert is the Minister at the St. George & St. Andrew United Church in Annapolis Royal. We shot their engagement session in the early spring, just after all the snow had disappeared. Little be known that as we were shooting the engagement session a freak blizzard was about to blow by! It made for very interesting photos!!
Their Wedding date was August 20th, 2011. I arrived at Jessica’s parent’s house the afternoon of the wedding, and was greeted by her mother and father and the rest of her family. One thing I notice about the feeling at the moment was that Jessica was extremely calm! Her mother commented on Jessica’s calmness, and how it reflected on everyone else, and she was right.
Jessica and Robert were to be married in the same church that Robert is a Minister at. You can tell his congregation has a lot of respect and admiration for Robert, the Church was full, and there were so many smiles as Jessica began her walk down the aisle with her dad. She was beautiful, and her Bride’s Maids looked lovely in their purple dresses. I thought it was awesome that Robert had chose purple for his shirt, I joked with Michael my Second photographer that michael somehow new the color tone of the day as he wore a purple shirt too. He blended right in with the Groomsmen and Groom!
The ceremony was lovely, Fort Anne was their location for their formal portraits, which was the same place we did their engagement session! Here are a few images from their wedding day. Congratulations Jessica and Robert, best wishes to both of you and your new life together! Thank you to Michael Carty for being my Second Photographer for the day!
