Dawn and Ryan

December 24, 2007

Wow – Is it really the day before Christmas?! Happy holidays, everyone!

And here are some photos from Dawn and Ryan’s fabulous November wedding!

We did the photo session before the ceremony – this is when Dawn and Ryan see each other for the first time all decked out!

Dawn’s bouquet was incredible, and included some jewels from her grandmother’s heirloom necklace.

Then off to the university for some photos – these were taken in the Dentistry/Pharmacy building.

The early evening ceremony was gorgeous – there wasn’t a dry eye in the house!

A Celtic handfasting ceremony – Dawn and Ryan chose special people to “tie the knot” for each one of these colored ropes.

The “real” cake was lovely, but there was also a second cake with hilarious dinosaur toppers!

How cute is this! Justin and Madeline have the dance floor all to themselves during the dinner in the adjoining room. Awww!

So much fun! Thanks, Dawn and Ryan!

We’ve never done a maternity shoot before, and to be honest, we weren’t sure about how much we liked the idea of the atypical maternity photo – the gauzy white material and soft focus. But when our friend Debbie asked us to take a few photos of her and her boyfriend Andrew, we were totally excited.

Debbie is totally beautiful. Also, hilarious!

This one’s my favorite!

And because Dallas and I can never manage to just take “serious” photos, some hilarity ensued with a box of Tim Horton’s donuts.
