2019 Year in Review – Couples

January 29, 2020

2019 – what a year! We had so many wonderful adventures with so many amazing couples! It’s been one for the books for sure! As in pervious years, we went down memory lane and reminisced about our favourite moments of the year. And, as in previous years, it is, once again, time for our annual 2019 year in review – couples slideshow!

Reflecting on this year, I can honestly say that it taught us some big lessons. For one, it taught us not to take anything for granted! The work we do and the people we work with are precious and the memories we capture are equally so. We are so lucky to be able to capture love, intimacy, genuine emotion and to immortalize it for our couples and families. And that is a precious gift!

This year, as with other years in the past, we were able to step outside of our comfort zones with our couples. We had new adventures, new experiences, and are once again humbled by the trust all of you place in us. Thank you! We feel so very blessed that our couples trust us and our quirky requests. But also that we can work together as partners to create some pretty amazing memories! Photography is, after all, a relationship, a team effort, not a solitary enterprise!

This year when I was putting together our annual 2019 year in review – couples, I was struck by how much more comfortable I am with going outside of my own comfort zone! (Does that make sense?) I no longer doubt (or care) if a shot is not perfectly lit, or positioned. For me, this year has been about exploring the human connection with our couples. It was about capturing raw human emotion, as opposed to the perfect composition. This year was all about the feels! (Check out some of those feels here – hope they give you goosebumps! 🙂

As usual, the endeavour of selecting images for this year’s slideshow was not easy. Choosing some of our favourite photos is like choosing a favourite child or pet! And as you know, we love our children and we love our Bubi! But I, somehow, managed come up with a lovely assortment of some of our most favourite captures. These are not exclusive by any means, and if we could find a song that was longer than a mere 3 minutes, we would include more photos!

So lovers, that is it! Another year older and another year wiser (maybe?!) With another season to look forward to, more couples to meet, collaborate with, laugh with, cry with, dance with and make memories with – we cannot wait to get started! In the mean time, turn up the volume, sit back and enjoy while we share this…

When one of your closest friends lets you take photos of her on her kitchen in nothing but a dress shirt you know she’s a keeper! Love you @msbeltempo - thanks for…well everything! 🥰🖤

Weekly round-up: nothing is spookier than two wedding weekends in a row after you proclaim your retirement to the world! 🫣🤦‍♀️ I owe @gillianfosterphotography for that one! But seriously, this week has been a little lighter (personally - I’m aware that the world is still on fire and I’m processing). But here it is - visually at a least : our last week, spooky ghouls and all!

Some nigh-time gems from my last wedding - this one was definitely an epic way to end on a high! Thank you @jasoncshum for your magic and @marymodd for trusting us in the dark and cold - the struggle was real (but oh so worth it) 🫣🤪🥰

Another weekly round up (i am beginning to get into a groove here!) This week was bittersweet. Everything that is happening in the world just seems so heavy - so finding little everyday things helps.

 Also celebrated my last wedding of my career (or at least that’s the plan). I will still take on small elopements and help out with second shooting for close friends but as for my own big formal weddings, I’m hanging up my weddings shoes.It’s the end of an era for me! I have to say that this one was epic and one for the books and I leave the industry on a super high note (thank you @jasoncshum & @marymodd for the best send -off!)

And that’s it lovers, another week gone. Getting closer to the winter months and I feel at peace. At least at the moment…

How was everyone else’s week?

Weekly round-up: it’s been a tough one. The loss of a very close friend and everything happening in the world has weighed heavy on my heart. But Ali taught me that life isn’t worth living if you don’t find the good in everything and I hold that close to my heart. She was truly a gem! So I’m finding happiness in the smallest things and honouring her memory every day…

How was your week lovers!?

Super late but here is a little summer round-up! It was a busy one this year but we soaked up every moment possible! I’m also super proud that I actually took some photos of our own family with my pro camera and not just my iPhone! Sure, I am not in any of them but I’m 💯  okay with that! LOL. Also, I can’t believe fall is already here - life just goes by so fast! 

What was your favourite moment this summer?

There are times when you are called somewhere and you cannot ignore that call - this was one of those times. Thank you @msbeltempo for making this trip lighter. @alistylinhughes next time we will meet outside of the HSpot and we will tear it up! Love you girls!

This one’s been years in the making - so much so that Hugh is coming out of retirement to capture it with me. I’m not saying it’s going to be epic…but it’s going to be epic! Congrats @hashtagterra & thank you for choosing us with your precious memories!
