Come on in and take a peek at the newest Carol-Ann Photography blog!
I will keep you up to date with my latest sessions and quirky ideas and ramblings.
Back in December (while battling pneumonia and not knowing it!) I met up with Krista and her two brothers for a surprise photoshoot as a Christmas gift for her mom. I was thrilled when Krista contacted me again to do the WHOLE family this time – dogs included!!
A few from the first shoot:
And onto the latest session, out at the Richmond Olympic Oval…
Sara and Jody jetted off to Cuba back in late April to get married on the beach. It was an absolutely gorgeous setting – but unfortunately I couldn’t be there with them 
I had the pleasure of photographing their at home reception this past weekend. And I tell yah , WAS IT EVER A PARTY ?!?!?! Probably one of the most outrageous fun parties I’ve been to in a LONG time 
Congratulations Sara + Jody. You guys are going to make damn cute babies 
Her wedding bands have 7 diamonds – one for each of the years they were together before getting egaged- AWWWW!
Getting the party started in the limo bus on the way there
Typical Sara – never without her pink blackberry!
Typical Jody – the rum and coke (not the bouquet – that was a one time deal )
Sara was determined to get down to the dock and sit in the boat. I think she was pretty proud.
One of the best damn DJ’s around : Steve Milani! http://www.musicmaestro.net/
Why does the wedding party hate Sara? Because she insisted they do a whole choreographed first dance. IT ROCKED!!!!
And then the party REALLY got started!
Nine months ago I had the pleasure of attending our good friend’s Barry & Kelsey’s wedding. we had an absolute blast – these two ARE the life of the party. These two have done a lot in the past nine months – most importantly growing a baby! Today I was very excited to meet Matthew – the newest member of the family and only 2 days old. He was an absolute doll. I was very excited to hold him when I arrived at the hospital, and he promptly fell asleep in my arms. I can’t wait to take some non-hospital newborn pics of this little man!!!
Congrats Kelsey & Barry!!! You’ve got a little heartbreaker on your hands!
I’ve finally narrowed it down, and have for you my very first wedding blog of 2009
Rochelle and Jason had an absolutely PERFECT day. The sun was out, with some great cloud cover to work with, the temperature was nice, but not SCOARCHING, and they were an absolutely drop dead gorgeous/handsome Bride & Groom.
The day started out at the Diamond Alumni Centre up at SFU. I arrived early to capture some of the gorgeous details Rochelle had put together for the big day.
I loved the all white lines!
An engagement photo by yours truly, placed on the guestbook table!
Rochelle’s first look at the decor – I think it’s safe to say she loved it!
I stumbled upon the best man practicing his speech for later on… then we headed out to the Barnet Marine Park for some bridal party shots. I LOVE this place!!!
The Girls walking towards the Boys in prep for the “first look”
I could tell he was getting nervous at this point!!!!
Even more nervous….
And then sheer joy as he sees his bride for the first time! 
I Loooooooooved this large rose bush for photos. The flowers totally set the mood 
You can’t go wrong with train track shots! 
Now.. this one needs a little explaining…..
I asked if they were willing to do a bit of off roading…..
and judging from Rochelles shoes from a few pictures above, you could tell that her foot ware is probably not the best for the job. So, in pure photographer fashion, i gave her my shoes, and walked on the barnacles and rocks in my socks Whatever you have to do to get the shot, right?
I’d say it was worth it
Canada’s next top wedding model!
The boys being goofs I Love it! It’s important to remember to have FUN on your big day!!!
Then we headed back up to SFU for more bridal party shots, and family photos.
I LOVE being able to do the photos before the reception!!!
GAH, sooooo romantic!
The big family shot!
I have to admit, he was the cutest father of the groom EVER! I think he’s hugging her so tight she’s not going to get away!
I swear these two were the cutest little flower girls EVER!
They did everything PERFECTLY!!!!
I love how much her eyes speak for her in this shot!
WOOHOO we did it!
Thank you so much, Rochelle and Jason, for inviting me to photograph your wedding. It was an absolutely spectacular day! I wish you nothing but love and happiness in your very bright future together.
