Darren and I travelled throughout Thailand, Laos, and Cambodia for three months back in 2006. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my entire life and not many days go by that I don’t think of a memory related to that trip. One of our stops in Thailand was in Ayutthaya which is a Unesco World Heritage site just 80km north of Bangkok. Darren and I intended on taking the train but missed the departure and were going to have to wait hours for the next one to leave. With everything being ‘slightly’ cheaper than home, we decided to find out how much a taxi would cost to take us there. Well for not much more than the cost of the train tickets we were able to ride in airconditioned comfort all the way there. You can imagine our surprise when we are getting out of our taxi and hear this sweet voice say “Darren Spears?!” It was Jen!! Darren and Jen went to highschool together. Jen was travelling with her maid of honour, Ashley. And if you can believe it this wasn’t the last time we would bump into these two. Yep, in Bangkok, a city with a population of 9,100,100 according to Wikipedia, we ran into them again at the MBK mall. (Sidenote – I also ran into a co-worker of mine at the time in a market in Bangkok as well!) It truly is a small small world.
Ok, getting back to the reason for the post. Jen got married !! Her HUSBAND Erik is such a sweet soul. You know when you can just tell when someone has a good heart? That’s Erik. I am so happy that they chose me as their photographer. Their wedding was so laid back and it honestly never felt like I was working. LOVE that !
They had an amazing team to assist with their day. The amazing Carly Flint did a spectacular job on the ladies make-up. Jen’s make-up was perfection and such a dream to shoot ! Tami Heywood was their officiant. Not gonna lie. She is my favourite! Not only because she was who married Darren and I, but because she absolutely loves what she does, and it shows. Cory Hewko created the gorgeous florals. It was so fabulous to work with her again. She also did the amazing florals for Angie and Aaron.
You can tell I am behind on my blogging as Jen and Erik are already back from their honeymoon in Costa Rica. Every time I think of Costa Rica THIS song pops into my head. Just love it.
Ok now onto the gazillion images. I’d love to hear from you, so please feel free to leave a comment!
