There are so many beautiful places to take photographs at the Hidden Meadows (A.k.a. Bee Spot) that it’s almost difficult, because you have to choose…

Luckily owner Nadine pointed us to a place in the fields that was easy to access and I loved it because it had a generous smattering of pink echinacea! It was so beautiful to use that as the backdrop (and foreground) to the wedding party photos.

We didn’t take too long here, because it was bright and sunny and we didn’t want people to have to squint too long in the sun. We took a few photos and went back to enjoy cocktail hour.

From the moment we started planning Maeve and MacKenzie's engagement photo session, I knew that it would be a really unique one.

The couple wanted to take me to MacKenzie's family cottage near Peterborough, on Stony Lake.

The only way to access this property, they told me, was by boat!

They were so sweet about this: Making sure I was okay with the boat ride, that my camera would be fine, and all.

After this, we headed to the gazebo, which was a super important place for both of them. They’d shared their first kiss there and later they got engaged there exactly a year ago! It was all too serendipitous. Their engagement story is so sweet and hilarious; but it’s theirs to tell. I’ll just say that Rochelle literally didn’t get it was all for her - despite the romantic lighting and engagement vibes - until the VERY end…

At their ceremony, Sarah played the ukulele and sang a beautiful rendition of Ingrid Michaelson's "Giving Up" for Oliver. LOTS OF TEARS were shed. Rings exchanged, and a kiss to seal the deal and it was OFFICIAL: THEY WERE MARRIED!
