I’ve finally thawed out from Branelle and Jordan’s wedding in Saskatchewan at the end of the year. I brushed up on my winter driving skills after 13 years living here in snowless Victoria and headed toward Melfort. I stayed with the Zwingli family at their B&B, and their hospitality was enough to make this Maritimer homesick around the holidays. Such wonderful and warm people…which certainly helped when it was -37 outside. Just a few images of Branelle and Jordan during our portrait portion of the day, which consisted of us keeping the car running with the heat blasted, jumping outside for two seconds until we couldn’t feel our hands, then hopping back in the car to warm up. I will say without a doubt, Branelle is the toughest bride I’ve photographed as far as enduring the elements, and as for Jordan, he had no complaints and said this was ‘his kind of weather’.  Myself, I vow to never complain about a rainy June wedding after photographing a December 28th wedding in the middle of Saskatchewan. I almost dropped to my knees and kissed the grass when I landed in Victoria the day after the wedding! This West Coast has made me a winter wimp!
