This past October, Justin and Annie were married at the Ontario Church of the Nazarene. I’ve enjoyed getting to know these two more over the last few months, so I was very excited for them when their big day finally came! Every bride is beautiful, and Annie was no exception. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a bride choose a champagne-colored gown, and it definitely complimented her skin tone and hair–at least I think so!

I’m so glad were able to take all their portraits outside and take advantage of the perfect weather and beautiful fall colors.

 

Annie and her maid-of-honor, Jen, got matching tattoos together.

Justin and the guys found something to do while the girls were getting ready…Nintendo 64!

There was a lady bug in Annie’s bouquet and we named him (or her?) Frederick.

Even though Frederick didn’t make it into any other photos, he remained in the bouquet throughout the entire day.

Instead of the traditional guest book, everyone signed a wooden heart.

Such a beautiful moment between Annie’s mother and brother.

Justin and Annie chose to partake in communion together. Usually I stay toward the back or sides of the sanctuary (or wherever the ceremony takes place), but I’m glad they had asked me to come up on the platform. It also ended up being the perfect opportunity to capture an unusual vantage point.
