Robyn and Jeremy

Saturday July 19, 2014

I met Robyn and Jeremy just a few months ago but I felt like we had been friends for years.  They are both so kind, genuine and extremely funny.  My daughter saw Robyn at our final meeting and whispered to me as Robyn left to go to her car, "Mommy, I think she will make the most beautiful bride!"  Well… she was right.
We arrived at Robyn's sister's house at 11:00am just as Robyn drove herself up the driveway.  She came beaming out of her car wearing her satin white kimono that spelled BRIDE across her back, it was truly adorable.  Robyn giggled as her mom and sister helped her get ready for her big day.
Romantic… Elegant... Timeless, are just a few words that came to my mind as Robyn walked into the room.  I could see the tears in her father's eyes…. she looked amazing.  Robyn is one of those girls who defines the term,  NATURAL BEAUTY.  Her charismatic smile and thoughtful personality made photographing her an absolute dream.  Thank you for sitting in the mosquito grass, baking in the sun, and making it all look so darn easy.



I am not the only one who loved spending time with Robyn….. so did every single child that was at her wedding.  She seemed to be known as the favourite auntie… especially to her nieces.  Robyn had tears of joy as we photographed them together, she was so proud to have them as a part of her wedding day.
Robyn and Jeremy were married in the early afternoon at the Zion Lutheran Church in Beausejour, Manitoba.  After the ceremony, we met at the couples newly renovated home that used to be the site of a dairy farm many years ago.  Jeremy, is a proud 4th Generation Farmer and is currently farming the land that surrounds their home.
I have always said how much I love photographing a wedding where my backdrop has a true connection to the couple.  Whether it's at the cabin, the couples home, or at a family farm.  Robyn and Jeremy's property was paradise.  It had old buildings, a red barn, and fields…. lots of fields.  




Thank you Robyn and Jeremy for inviting me to your amazing home but for also being so great to work with.  I don't know who was laughing harder at Jeremy's subtle humour, me or Robyn?  Jeremy's boyish smile and laid back domineer made photographing the both of you so much fun.  I don't think he even cringed as Robyn stood on the hood of his tractor……. or sat in the wheel…… but one thing is for sure, his love for his brand new wife.  He just smiled as she twirled around the yard in her dress. 




Thank you to the wedding party for all of your kindness, energy, and fun.  


Congratulations Robyn and Jeremy on your wedding day.  I wish you both many years of laughter, happiness, and many dances together in your wonderful wheat field!

The evening ended with a very entertaining wedding reception from paper airplanes, dancing, an ice-cream bar, and the talented live band known as, MIDSTREAM.
