nothing but love felt on this day...


Alex and Jess picked the perfect day to tie the knot! The guys got ready in Tavistock, while the girls got ready at Jess's parents house in New Hamburg. They opted for a first look and we decided to do it on the iconic balcony of Rivers Edge in Paris Ontario. I love this venue because there is so much variety for photos! There's a trail across the road, the downtown core and then the balcony for some fun and creative shots. Surrounded by their friends and family, they had a lovely indoor ceremony and you could tell how happy everyone was for them! I am truly honoured that I was able to capture their day. OH and the sunset we got was one of the best of the 2025 wedding season. A little personal note: Jess is my best friend's sister so it felt really special to be able to capture her day and also I got to hangout with my best friend! Enjoy the images.
