Wedding at Eighteen Restaurant-Byward Market - Ottawa Wedding Photographer

Jennifer and Jason found me through their Toronto-based wedding planner and our first meeting took place over the phone, where Jennifer was completing her medical residency in Winnipeg while Jason was completing a fellowship in Texas. It wasn't until a few months later that Jennifer and I would get a chance to meet in person to go through the details of their wedding day at Eighteen where we really hit it off. I felt like I had known Jennifer for years not moments. Her quiet strength, warmth and easy laugh made connecting effortless - and when she told me she wanted to have a glamourous, elegant feel to her wedding - I knew we were a match- 'cause romantic, beautiful and classic are what I do best...and Jennifer brought the glamour without question. I would only learn at the wedding that her soon to be loving husband was formerly known as "Mister Creepy Stares" from Frosh week - obviously Jason was smitten, but it would take quite a while for Jennifer to get close enough to "Creepy" to learn he was going to hold her hand into the future. 


I first met Jason a couple of weeks before the wedding for our engagement shoot. We had a fabulous engagement session that was cut short by an abrupt storm that blew my skirt near over my head! I'm talking sudden! Well we were bonded at that point- no secrets there! We sat over a few drinks at The Sidedoor, where I got to know Jason better - I was in intant fan. Jason, it just so happened, used to run a beer tasting website- I just happen to love microbrews and beers from around the world, so we had something fun to chat about. What impressed me most about these two very talented doctors -other than their truly amazing accomplishments - was the depth of their great love for each other - in spite of the trying past few years of residencies, exams and distance - they had finally arrived at the point in their lives where they could take a deep breath, say they "Dog Days are Over" and begin their lives together - in the same city (of Winnipeg) and take in their great new lives ahead.


It has been an honour guys-thank you...this is for you...
