WELCOME!
My blog is a big part of my business and my creative process. It really is a kind of living journal for me. It's patient and loyal, it listens and even responds with your comments. It's where I feel like I can share my ideas, my work, my creativity, my life. I can be joyful, grateful, wistful, excited and nervous. In the two and a half years I've been pursuing this amazing dream my blog has become the record of triumphs big and small and will hopefully record many more incredible adventures, not just my own, but the adventures of the people who have come into my life as a result of my work.

I love feedback and hope, if something catches your eye or your interest, you will leave me a message.

Love Dani


Happy New Year!
Dani

What a phenomenal wedding! I don't know where to start. I'm posting this in two entries because I had such a hard time narrowing down my favorites. Every detail was perfect.merc.jpg mercereau_0013.jpg

Nic and Kelly were so perfectly happy and overwhelmingly excited all day. It was infectious!
Nic got ready at her Mom's place while Kelly and the boys got ready at Nicole and Kelly's home.

Then it was time to head to the church to GET MARRIED!

See what I mean about "just so happy"?
Nicole's flowers were arranged by the uber talented Flowers By Fred. He did an awesome job and even weaved Nicole's late Grandmother's necklace into the arrangement.

If you know anything about me, you know I love shooting where there's vehicles. Vehicles bring their own personality to the table and no two are alike. Even when you get the same make and model, they seem to take on personalities all their own.
So at a recent wedding, they had hired someone to drive a school bus to transport guests back to their hotel (GREAT IDEA!!). After we finished shooting for the evening, I thought I'd grab a couple volunteers to come out and let me play with them and the awesome bus! Well, it was a hit and so much fun. We ended up having a line up of people to volunteer and even the bride and groom joined the fun. Now this is my kinda photo booth!

Dani, these are fabulous as usual. I can't wait to see the weddings photos (especially the one of Stephanie dancing with her Dad). It was great meeting you and thanks for everything.

He is a self proclaimed geek and she is a classic beauty. Erin and Mitchell could not be more perfect for each other. Their love is quiet and tender. It is seen in gentle caresses and heard in softly spoken words.
They both love the outdoors and celebrated their wedding by camping with friends and family at Emma Lake. 
Erin got ready and waited for her Dad to arrive at the Bear Track Cabins, Christopher Lake;blog1.jpg _MG_2802.jpg
Isn't she just stunningly beautiful?!

One of my very favorite wedding moments is just after the Priest or Minister announces the couple as Husband and Wife for the first time. Look at how absolutely happy Erin and Mitchell are!
After lunch at the church we headed to the lake.

Congratulations! I hope your European honeymoon was blissful!

My blog posts have been a little sparse this summer because we have been so overwhelmingly busy. I have a few more sneak peeks to share for weddings I'm currently working on.

I love the engagement album / guest book. What a great way to show off your awesome engagement images and save the messages from all of your wedding guests!

Nicole and Kelly are getting married next month and they have thought of every little detail. I cannot wait to see it all come together! Here is their engagement album / guest book;
