Nick & Vanessa

You’d be pretty hard pressed to finding someone that doesn’t love working with Vanessa. We’re certainly not the only photographers that rave about her, and i’ve read blog after blog of raving reviews from clients and colleagues. Not only is Vanessa outgoing, hilarious, and full of energy, she is also full of love and gives like there is no tomorrow. She is one of the smartest women I know and I never leave a day with Vanessa not feeling full of joy. There is something to be said about a woman who is not only funny and lighthearted, but equally intelligent and thoughtful. So when it came to photographing her ten year vow renewal, the pleasure was all mine. Of course the pleasure was ‘ours’ as Tristan and I always photograph together, but in this situation I say it was all mine. As when you photograph any friends wedding, I had the special experience of being close to Vanessa from start to finish. She got ready with just me, and her daughter Lily joined us at the end, so all of the emotions leading up to the ceremony we got to share together. It was such a lovely morning that I got to spend with her, my nerves bouncing around at the same time as she. Vanessa always asks what my favourite part of the day was and I always say the morning, selfishly. I loved it, and I love being her friend and her photographer. We’ve been photographing Vanessa’s family now for 5 years, and it just keeps getting better. The more you photograph the more you love, in my opinion. So we’ll share now some pictures from our day in Vegas, where Vanessa and Nick said I do a second time, in front of their closest friends and family. Lucky for us that we should be there too.
