I’ve been going through folders of images stored on my backup hard drives and discovered some very special images that I had never posted here on the blog. A few months ago, we had a brief hiatus caused by a bout of the H1N1 virus and then pancreatitis. Blog posts were kind of pushed to the back burner while I recovered. I really wanted to share these images on the blog but have been hesitating because they are from last year. Then I thought that it is better late than never!
Last year, we ran a contest and gave away an engagement photo session and a full day of wedding photography coverage to one lucky couple. Erin and Darrell’s submission won the hearts of our judges. Not only did they win our photography services, they also received a custom made wedding cake donated by the lovely Heather Bown of Sweet Cheeks. Just wait until you see what she created for them. The cake was absolutely gorgeous and completely mouthwatering!
Ian and I first met with Erin and Darrell for their engagement photo session. We had so much fun with them!
After getting to spend a bit of time with Erin and Darrell, Ian and I were really looking forward to photographing their wedding. The wedding ceremony and reception took place in Wallace Bay, Nova Scotia on the lawn of a farmhouse owned by Erin’s family. The location was extra special because it is where she spent most of her childhood summers.
The wedding took place on the hottest day of the year… inland. I felt like I was melting the entire day (I grew up next to the ocean so I am used to a nice cool breeze even on hot summer days). The cake suffered a little bit of heat damage while being moved outdoors (hence the icing damage on the bottom layer) but it was still gorgeous and one of the best wedding cakes that I have sampled! If you are in need of a custom wedding cake, speciality cookies and/or wedding favours, contact Heather Bown of Sweet Cheeks here in Halifax at sweetcheeks@eastlink.ca or 902-444-2473.
