Patrick and Ashley met while working at the Canada Food Inspection Agency. They kept their budding romance a secret from co-workers, coming and going in separate vehicles, no one had a clue until they announced their engagement.

In early August the couple tied the knot with friends and family present.

Here is a sneak peak preview of their wedding!

All the best as you begin this journey together!

Eric and Deanna were married July 10th of this year in a small ceremony in Yarker. It was a beautiful and intimate setting and after we ventured into Yarker and then over to Amherstview for photos.

As always I had a blast hanging out with the awesome couple on their special day. Thank you so much Eric and Deanna and all the best as you begin your life together.

Whether you are seeking fabulous flowers, a fantastic DJ who will keep your guests moving or the perfect gown… it is all here. Oh and if you still haven’t found your perfect photographer…. hint hint, nudge nudge!

This is a sad but true statement I’m not sure I should really admit to. I mean wedding photography requires me to always be thinking of new ways to be creative… yet here I sit blank minded, writing a blog about not writing blogs. I’m sure in some world this is a huge faux pas.

When I was younger you couldn’t tear me away from a computer. I was always writing short stories or attempting new novels. I’m not sure where I lost that sense. A few months ago I thought it would be fun to write a short story. My brain was lost. Is it possible that as we grow older one side of our brain takes over and the other falls to the wayside? As I grew as a photographer did my writing diminish?

On any note, my goal over the next two months is to dust off my writing and populate this space more… hound me if I fall short of this goal.

On a completely separate thought, this weekend I’m off to Niagara Falls, staying at the beautiful Holiday Inn. I will post pictures when I return (see a blog post in the works .

Until then…

After mulling over various ideas we got to talking about an article I had seen earlier in the week about the importance of having a professional photographer to capture the most important moments of the biggest day of your life. Somehow this led to a conversation on the ‘hear say’ rules of photography. Some are so obviously untrue but others seem to be the favoured myths.

Please take a look and let me know your thoughts!

I would also like to extend my congratulations to any and all couples that got engaged over the Holiday Season! I hope you will stop by and visit the Adelita Rose booth if you are attending either of the two shows. I look forward to meeting you all!

All the best in the New Year!

So on Saturday we met at Miss Lily’s in Picton and headed out to the trail; three dogs in tote. We did most of the photos on the trail before heading out to Lake on The Mountain.

Thank you so much Brad and Beckie for trusting my judgement, you are such a beautiful and natural couple! I can’t wait till you tie the knot on June 26th of next year!

Caitlin

I am so excited for next year’s wedding season and can’t believe how quickly the year is booking up… on that note please, please don’t wait till it’s too late and your day is taken

Taking a step back though I am happy to announce that I will be launching into Boudoir shoots this coming holiday season, so if you are looking for that extra special gift for your special someone please fill in the contact form. These will also make an amazing Valetine’s day present.

Until then I hope you will keep checking back for updates and new posts!

On Sunday I met up with the couple to shoot some more untraditional engagement photos. After losing light quickly, we decided that we would reconvene over the Winter months for a second shoot.

Congratulations to you both! I am so excited for your wedding!

It was a slightly bittersweet day for me; as always the wedding was beautiful and the couple looked amazing, but this was my last wedding of the season, and I was sad to see it end.

We started the day off at the beautiful Clarion Inn and Suites hotel in Belleville’s downtown before moving to the Greek Hall for the ceremony.

After a beautiful ceremony we headed to Sir James Whitney school to capture a few family shots and then wrapped up on the Waterfront trail. Aside from a slightly brisk breeze the day was beautiful, and the fall colours were out in force.

After wrapping up we headed back to the Greek Hall for a beautiful reception and dinner!

Thank you so much Emily and Curt for making my last wedding an amazing day. I wish you both all the best as you start this new chapter in your lives!
