This August, I had the pleasure of photographing Paula and Shane on their wedding day. I started the morning photographing the couple getting ready with their friends and family in two homes next door to each other in Benton. I was pleased to run into a couple familiar faces among the groomsmen (small community!)  But it wasn’t long before I got to meet everyone and I felt a connection with the people I had just met that day. I was genuinely excited to see Paula in her dress for the first time and to capture the reaction of everyone else as they saw her. We moved to the Salvation Army Church in Gander for the ceremony, and Cobb’s Pond before meeting up in Glovertown. We took a few photos around Glovertown including some at the beautiful new town centre. Finally, we moved to the Glovertown Lion’s Club where I photographed the speeches, the shoe game, the cake cutting, and the first dances. It was a beautiful day that won’t soon be forgotten!

That’s what flasks are for!

The first reveal!

 

Everyone was waiting for the newlyweds when these two came out of the church before them…

Cake by Gander’s Downton Bakes. Vanilla, chocolate, and red velvet cake filled with chocolate ganache & cinnamon, funfetti, coconut and red velvet cupcakes. 😛

Sisters in sync

The shoe game – a wedding classic. Always funny

There’s a lot of agreement here!

She got cake on him first but he got her back much worse!

I thought this light and the decor on the ceiling created a beautiful scene for the first dances.
