A few weeks ago, I photographed a very dear friend’s wedding. Until that Saturday, I had never been specifically asked to photograph such an important event, creating memories for generations to come. In many ways I consider it a great pleasure to be able to serve friends in this way, and provide them with such a personal gift. It was certainly an interesting experience, and one that I’m not absolutely opposed to repeating. It’s remarkable that all in one day, one moves from feeling like a voyeur intruding in the tenderness of moments, to an artist, carefully composing shots that convey meaning, to barking orders in hopes of retaining a semblance of crowd control. Here are a few of my favourite shots from the big day (and an engagement session we did together).
Très jolies photos, vraiment. Chapeau l’artiste !
