A Little Sneak Peek

The wedding came and went, and it’s all a blur. I’m still waiting on photos from our photographer, and by the looks of it, he’s going to be busy right through fall so we’ll be waiting awhile. I don’t mind given how amazing he was to us!

While I have much to share, I’m still processing a lot of it and trying to savour what I can remember! I’m also enjoying my time as a newlywed and adjusting to living in a new home, with my new husband. 

For the time being, here’s a little preview of the wedding:

One Week to Go!

We’re just about a week away and I’m overwhelmed! Excitement, anxiety, stuff to do… kind of surreal to be honest. Over the last two months, I’ve been a terrible blogger. But that time was very well spent - dates with my family, lots of errands, packing up some stuff and even a bit of Stampedeing. We also managed to get our second E-Session done. The results? AHHH-MAAAAAZ-ING!!! 

These were taken in Drumheller, AB in the Badlands. The location stayed true to it’s name - we had intense sun, severe dust storms and even some crazy thundershowers throughout this shoot. I think our photographer Azad managed to deal with the elements like a true pro - the wind in this photo looks intentional!

And let me just toot my own horn with the next image.  I joked on Twitter about “getting my Tyra on” during this session. Don’t mind me dusting off my shoulder for this one:

Advice: Don’t be afraid to go nuts! I rolled around in some grass with crickets chirping, frogs croaking and things I don’t want to think about hissing. I was even laying on top of a spider web at some point. Yes, I was freaked out. But the results were amazing. Also, be yourself. The best photos were when we weren’t paying attention to the camera!

What d’ya think?

I can’t wait to share more with you, but no promises on it being anytime soon. If the last two months were busy, I can only imagine that the days leading up to the wedding will be very intense!

E-Session Favourite - Part Deux

Alright, I’m late on this. I know, I know, I’m a terrible blogger. But planning a massive Indian wedding is a daunting task and it’s definitely keeping me busier than I anticipated. Busier than I thought I would be when I started this blog and pledged to be the most awesomest wedding blogger I could be - defeat accepted.

Here’s the next favourite E-Session photo from our first shoot with Azad:

It was the place we had our first dinner together, standing in proximity to how we actually met up that day.

We have one more E-Session before the wedding, and as soon as it happens, I’ll post more photos (hopefully soon)!

In the meantime, we’re about a month and a half away. I’m freaking out over the excitement and the never ending list of stuff to do!

E-Session Favourite

Our first E-Session was a blast, and we had a lot of fun teasing each other about being cheesy, and of course, hockey rivalries. Right from the start, D and I have always had hockey in common and we’re both passionate about our respective teams.

As a result, this was our favourite photo. Our photographer Azad captured the moment beautifully - I especially love how the towers in the background seem to fit mine and Daniel’s height perfectly. I also love the colours!

All in all, it’s a really sweet photo and I think we look like a pretty cute couple, minus all the PDA.

In reality, Daniel was razzing me about playoffs and I was smiling through it, telling him at least it was nice to know what it felt like to win a cup. Even once. See how hard he’s squeezing my hand? That was a silent FU. Yup, we’re intense. But it made for a great pic! Love it!

More to come!

3 Months To Go!

I can hardly believe it, but the wedding is just around the corner. I didn’t believe everyone when they told me how busy I’d be, and I wish they had told me how exhausting all of this would become closer to the wedding!

I’ve got a post coming up that’ll share the first set of engagement photos. We’re in the process of scheduling the next round, and I’m so excited!

All the vendors are booked, and it’s just down to finishing touches. I’m hoping to share what I’ve done over the last couple of months with you, so stay tuned this week!
