Crystal and Adam… probably dying that I am showing you photos of them kissing… they are a pretty private couple but we caught them in some very warm and tender moments on this chilly December evening. When they listen to the song I chose for the slideshow, by local artist Jennah Barry, I wonder if they’ll think about the same thing I think of, something they told me they were talking about during the First Dance, it must have been what made them laugh…
When I’m taking photographs I sometimes tune everything out and I only see the expressions and the tenderness and the little details that make up the day… It’s funny sometimes when you know just what made people laugh because sometimes it’s not at all romantic like it seems! Ha ha. But I would rather bring people back to that moment, whatever it was that made them laugh, than to force people to smile stiffly; those moments aren’t ones to remember, and that’s not much of a way to spend one of the most memorable days of your life.
So Crystal and Adam, I hope these photographs (and the ones to come) bring back memories for you, that they make you laugh and maybe even cry. Congratulations to an incredibly sweet couple that Lauren and I had the honour to photograph just a few weeks ago on a snowy evening in Halifax, Nova Scotia (yes, it snowed for a few minutes that night… at least that’s how I remember it!) Thank you for a wonderful day
