My last wedding of the year was such an amazing way to end the season. It was another intimate backyard ceremony, with close friends and relatives. As I mentioned before, if there is a bright side to the current restrictions, it’s that I get to do a lot more of these small weddings, which I absolutely love.
My short day with Jacqueline and Jake started at the Tree Farm, where we did all the formal portraits before the ceremony. You pretty much can’t go wrong with the Tree Farm, especially in winter. It obviously helped that both Jacqueline and Jake looked like movie stars. We ended up using a couple different locations within the tree farm for the portraits, and both resulted in gorgeous looking shots.
It was then off to the ceremony which took place in their parent’s backyard. The whole decor and everything about it was the perfect accent to Jake and Jaqueline. From the blankets and gloves on the chairs, to the two violinists and all the details in between, it was a story book setting. Luckily the weather was perfect too.
It helped that Jacqueline’s mother has been collecting fur coats from vintage stores over the years. All the bridesmaids and some of the family wore them throughout the day and it levelled up the photos that much more.
After the ceremony we spent a bit of time getting some family photos as well. Of course, throughout my entire time with them, I made sure to capture an endless amount of fleeting and candid moments. I do wish I had a few more weddings in these last couple months of the year! I guess I will just have to wait until my busy 2021 season. :)
