Krissy's Maternity

Meanwhile, in Ancaster, my sister is expecting a baby girl just a month after we are expecting ours!  So, thats convenient as Kris and Christine will be able to have the girls grow up together, and Nash will be able to be the big brother for both of them. 

We shot these over the course of an afternoon, mostly at my moms house as Krissy's house was overrun with roofing workers.  We were able to take our time for the most part, until we realized the sun was getting low and she still wanted to hit her favorite horse pasture to get some shots there.  Its not a maternity shoot without a field!  But in the end I ended up liking those shots best.  Here are a few of my favs...

Josie & Neilson

I was glad to have met Josie and Neilson... quite a pair.  On one hand crazy exuberant, and the other quiet and collected.  Guess which is which!  Though, both just very nice, down-to-earth, honest people, who were comfortable being themselves, and letting me be myself as well.  So much so they said I should wear shorts to the wedding if that would make me more comfortable (I took them up on that offer, during the reception)! 

 
“The beauty and realism through which Aaron captured our special day speaks volumes to his creative vision, impeccable timing and connection to his clients. He showed great respect for our traditions while suspending some wild party moments in timelessness. We are overjoyed and tremendously grateful for Aaron’s talents and having shared these precious moments under his watchful eye. Amazing job Aaron, quite simply - amazing!

It was so easy to work with both of them, it realy was a day that, despite being the longest wedding I've done to date, flew by and never left me feeling like I was waiting for something, or lacking in interesting things to shoot.  Ontop of that, their appreciation for all my effort as well as the images I've given them was awesome, and rarely have I felt that my work honestly meant as much as it did to a client than it seemed to mean to these two.  So, as usual, here is a brief summary of the day...

I didn't even know I had this shot until I reviewed all the shots days later.  I couldn't have gotten this shot if i planned it and tried for 10 days straight (the bouquet being frozen perfectly infront of my flash on the other side of the room).

Meghan & Sean

When I first met with Meghan and Sean and they described how they were planning their wedding day, I was optimistic at what they had in mind.  While we didn't get much passed the description of "the wedding will be at Sean's parent's house", I pretty quickly envisioned how I hoped things would look.  A wedding at a house can be a tricky thing, as a house isn't realy a place that's designed to hold lots of people, or be a well lit make-up studio, or a cool dance venue.  Fortunately, the day did no disappoint.  Sean's parents had recently finished construction on the house and grounds and they were pretty awesome as you can see.  So when you have a great backdrop to work with, and are welcomed by a great family to "make yourself at home", and get to shoot 2 people who are used to being under the spot light, it makes for a good day of shooting indeed.  Here are some of my favorites from the day...

 
“For us, working with Aaron meant confidence and peace of mind. We could relax knowing that all the special moments of our wedding would be captured beautifully. Aaron came through with such a wonderful collection of photos that we get to experience the joy of our wedding day again and again. Thank you Aaron!

Subaru Interior

A project I've wanted to do for a while now, finally done!  After having my car interior stripped out for a few years as part of an interior-swap project, I finally got all the pieces together and installed, and it's all back together.  Motivated by the fact that I needed to have a car seat in the back for Nash, I knew I had to get important things back in the car, such as rear seats (key!).  The original interior color of this car is blue, which I think is a pretty poor choice on Subaru's part, but thats how it goes I guess.  Thanks to those who traded or sold me the required black parts (seats, door cars, carpet), as I think the end results look great.  So, an hour last night shooting out in the garage, and a few hours of editing today, and this project is in the bag!  Next car project will hopefully be an exterior shot when I get all the business branding decals put on.  Stay tuned!
