rachel & blair wedding

Rachel and Blair love winter. And I believe them. I shot many warm photos of them in the snow, and cuddling in the icy draughts of a train. Despite our differing seasonal tastes, I loved their winter-themed-celebration, and Rachel, whom I met as a bride’s maid at Desirée and Jim’s wedding in 2007, looked the perfect ice-queen. The remarkable cake which depicts Rachel and their cats and Blair on his snowmobile was crafted by Luscious Creations. Their ceremony and reception was held at Whonnock Lake, which is a lovely building with vaulted ceilings and skylights, in the quiet woods near a lake. It may be in Abbotsford. The décor was provided by Bobi’s Wedding Warehouse, and Rev. Brent Sheppard officiated. We’ll start with some preparation shots, which are some of my best getting ready images ever thanks to a slow lace-up process and some strong light coming through a window!

Amish ring in snow = cat’s meow
dust on dance floor = crazy (ie: I guess they were dancing up a storm?) 😛
