Is she a supermodel?
Is she a model of some sort?


Nope, Jenny is a mother of 2, and now wife to Tyler. Jenny spends her time at the Teen Zone helping youth right now until baby number 3 is born, which will be soon!

I can see why Tyler and Jenny are a match made in heaven. I see it every time they look at each other. I saw it when Tyler looked at Jenny when she walked through the park to meet him to get married. It was like a dream was coming true. I see it when they are always posting on each others walls on facebook. They are one cute couple!


....like a tattoo, you are painted, printed,
on my body, all over my soul;

Oh Brrrrrrrr.....Brrrrrrrr....

I know everyone here calls me the "Ice Princess" cause I do love to have my living quarters colder than most, and I sleep with no blankets. If you ever enter my home it is usually colder than outside and it can be referred to as the "Ice Castle". I feel like if it gets to warm, I get sleepy!

Sometimes when I am doing shoots outdoors in the cold, wearing a sweater, and no jacket, and my clients are all bundled up, I forget. I forget that other humans get cold. Soooo during this Love Session with Lindsey & Nick, we decided to stop into Leonard's for some hot chocolate, coffee and warmth. The owners of Leonard's (who will be blogged next) were more than gracious to let us warm up. They were very welcoming and for this we thank them!

Lindsey & Nick were fun to work with, and kept telling me that they weren't cold. I could tell that they might be considering it was -1 million and cheeks and noses were getting red. They both just went along with my foolishness and followed my lead. I hope Nick gets a long well in his new job & Lindsey doesn't miss him too much while he is gone.

Oh I love AUTUMN!

Autumn is my favorite season ever. I love it. Everything about it is awesome. The air even smells better. So clean, So fresh and new. Chelsey & Denis choose to get married close to the end of this beautiful season. It rained on and off during the day, but every single time it stopped, we went outside and got what photos we needed, and they had a backup plan if we needed it.

Chelsey's gown was amazing, in a beautiful champagne color. I loved it. It suited her perfectly. Chelsey and Denis were ready for anything I threw at them. I love that.

Remember this was the couple that I gave them lemons on their engagement session. They just laughed and went on with the shoot. If life gives your lemons make lemonade.

Oh I love lemonade!!! (lemonade? YESSSS pleasssse).

I think it was the same philosophy on the day of their wedding. If mother nature gives you rain, use that for photos somehow or find somewhere to do photos until I stop! They were not bothered by the rain or anything else that day! What a fun and beautiful group of friends and family this was and what else would yo want to be doing than photographing a group like this when it is raining out?

Jeremy's father was the officiant at this marriage, which made it all the more special for both Jeremy & Rachel. He spoke many kind words but something that stood out to me in his sermon was the following. I agree with all of these tips for a happy, healthy marriage.

He spoke of the 3 Things that will help their new marriage. The 3 R's.

R for Respect.
R for Romance.
R is for Resolve.

Elvis was a huge part of this day. Jeremy (Jay) is a big Elvis fan, and it was evident. We had a lot of fun with some Elvis & Priscilla dolls that Rachel gave to Jeremy. They are collectibles that she had given to him as a gift and we opened them up, brand new out of the box, and used them for part of the shoot. That's what kind of couples I have. Amazing. Playful. Sweet. Fun.

Our beaches here on Prince Edward Island are unbelievable. As we drove towards it, I couldn't help but pretend it was my first time on an island beach. I was thinking that if it was my first time, I would be in awe. Gorgeous hills of long green sea grass, with electric blue waters, red capes and white sands. Elvis was part of the vows that they spoke to each other on the beach on PEI. As Elvis had sung, they spoke with the waves crashing in the background.

Part of their vows during the ceremony were the Lyrics for Love me Tender by Elivis. I loved it!

Love me tender,
Love me sweet,
Never let me go.
You have made my life complete,
And I love you so.

Love me tender,
Love me true,
All my dreams fulfilled.
For my darlin I love you,
And I always will.

Love me tender,
Love me long,
Take me to your heart.
For it's there that I belong,
And well never part.

Love me tender,
Love me dear,
Tell me you are mine.
Ill be yours through all the years,
Till the end of time.

(when at last my dreams come true
Darling this I know
Happiness will follow you
Everywhere you go)
