~ A 10 year love story ~

They met 10 years ago in Canada. They lived their lives. They found each other again and became man and wife.

Having not met this couple before turning up on their wedding day, camera in hand I was unsure as to what kind of a day might be in store. We’d arranged me being their photographer at fairly short notice (a couple of weeks before hand) and the bride to be had managed to find me from America through the good old World Wide Web. I’m so happy she did. From the word go there were smiles and tears and more smiles and more tears. Happy tears though. I nearly cried too during the ceremony. It was beautiful.

The ceremony was at the Rathaus in the beautiful Bremgarten and although there were serious roadworks being done directly outside, that didn’t stop this wedding party having a great time. After the ceremony we took a few shots down by the river and then headed to a beautiful Restaurant for an apero and dinner.

Also, apologies to the grooms’ twin brother for any confusion. It wasn’t until probably half way through the day that I realised there were two of you!

~ Wedding – Stephanie & Robert ~

It was a pleasure to take photos for Steph and Rob at the gorgeous Bad Shauenburg Restaurant and Hotel in Liestal. It was an absolutely stunning location and the food and service throughout the day was just amazing – I don’t think I’ve seen a more appetising desert buffet in my life! Luckily the rain abated for the day too and it was just gorgeous all day. The ceremony under the tree was just beautiful and I sincerely wish you a very long and happy life together.

So hard to only pick out a few images for now, the whole day was amazing, here are just a few images as a sneak preview. I’ll get the slideshow to you both soon, but for now here are a few memories from the day:

~ Giggles, splashes and polaroids ~

This family sure kept me on my toes.  Another shoot in and around Basel, we started at the Munster and enjoyed playing in the glassless arched windows in the courtyard at the back.  With three little kiddies I had my hands full and they were all full of bags of energy.   I love that mum just seems to be giggling in all the pictures I took.  

Getting everyone to sit in one place and place some sort of attention my way was a challenge, but hey, that’s why they booked me, right!?    Had I known that my secret weapon was my little credit card polaroid camera, I would have used it earlier..  Once the older two saw how that worked (in particular, the older boy) he was happy to do anything I asked and was quietly working out how many weeks of pocket money it would take to get himself one!  Too cute.

Another happy family.  Super tanned from their sunny summer holiday together too – perfect!


Such a cheeky little monkey:

~ Beautiful Baby Bump ~

This was a dream maternity session, beautiful mum to be: check! handsome dad to be: check! willing to go with my creative eye: check! They had a beautiful flat full of inspiration, including a nice little balcony that they were willing to be out on in their undies. A keen yoga bunny, this mummy was looking fabulous and you would never guess she was only a month away from giving birth. Thanks for a great session, here are a few sneak preview images:
