I’m so glad we chose Colin to capture the special memories made on our wedding day. We were married on a typical NL summers day - with hurricane force winds and rain! This challenging weather didn’t stop Colin from getting some great shots - both indoors and out! Colin was professional, creative, focused and overall captured the fun loving spirit of our special day. With such an easy going attitude, Colin was a pleasure to have join our wedding crew.
Thanks for sharing your expertise and friendship Colin!
No Hurricane Will Stop These Two On Their Wedding Day
a testimonial from Mark & Kara
Yep… #NewfieScreech
We awoke that morning to a typical September “almost hurricane wedding day” forecast. And wouldn’t ya know it, for once, the forecast was correct.
The wind was howling and the rain was sideways but it was the big day, rain or shine.
Folks, what you’re about to see is a Newfoundland wedding day which no one in attendance will ever forget.
Screech. Bums. Cod. Bologna.
Oh and a wedding ceremony, too.
We dodged the rain drops all afternoon, calling audibles left, right, and center to find calm nooks and crannies to stop and snap a picture. Thankfully Mark and Kara were two of the most easy-going carefree people I’ve yet to come across and the fact it was pouring outside didn’t phase anyone, one bit.
The day was beautiful, weather aside. We had an absolute laugh and a half, making a few decent pictures along the way. :-)
And then we made our way back to the reception…
And then the Screech made an appearance…
And then the pants came off…
-
- Time to get ready!
-
- Our stunning bride, Kara.
-
- Our couple dodged the falling rain just long enough to get this picture on George Street. You can see the falling rain in the background even.
-
- Mark claims this is the exact look he gave Kara the night they met. How could she resist! :-)
-
- This is how it all went down.
-
- Making out on the bar!
-
- All the girls! Gotta love the hair bags.
-
- At the Inn of Olde
-
- Finally on to the wedding reception! Too funny.
-
- Not everyone could be there due to, you know, saving the free world and all, but their presence was felt.
-
- First dance then the real fun began.
-
- Yep, that’s Screech and pizza.
-
- A few of the boys were getting Screeched in.
-
- Having some trouble with the oil skins.
-
- Bologna, just a light snack before the screech.
-
- All smiles right now and tasty I’m sure, but sadly boys it only gets worse from here.
-
- Smiles no more. Now it’s capelin that you must eat. Yum!
-
- Yeah. Not sitting well is it. Yay Newfoundland. Hah
-
- And here comes the screech.
-
- Some for everyone.
-
- And a little for the help.
-
- This is their expression after downing the Screech. It was gold. They were all on the brink of heaving.
-
- Mark removing the garter. The boots were excellent.
-
- What Mark found underneath was a duck call! QUACK-QUACK. Honestly, folks, I have no idea either, but it was pretty darn funny.
-
- And then it kicked off. No more commentary required. Just enjoy.
-
- Oh man…
-
- Yep… #NewfieScreech
-
- And last but not least. Good times had by all.
-
- This one is just cute and makes me laugh.
Absolutely beautiful job on the pictures.
You captured some very beautiful and fun-filled moments. I’m sure Mark and Kara are very happy with them.
Regards,
