and eventually the new blog will take over the http://www.owensoundphoto.com/blog/ address, once I get all the technical web stuff figured out

Thanks for your patience as I work away at this!

My photos are planned out, slide show of recent work is set to go, business cards in hand, calendar of available dates marked out and sample albums ready for viewing. All I need to do is load it all up and set-up….just to tear it all down and bring it back, I’m tired just thinking about it. Thankfully I love doing this show every year!! I love visiting with the other vendors whom I see in passing during wedding season, meeting newly engaged couples and seeing some past clients too. If you are going this year make sure to pop by and see me, I’m right beside Williamsford Pie Company {yikes!} in the smaller conference room to the left as you enter the show. If you are a fellow vendor make sure to join us for the ‘before’ party on Friday night after set-up!! It is a great time to chat with other wedding types. Drop me a line for the details if I missed sending you an invite.

Hope to see you there, Christy

Thank you to all the amazing couples in this video I had a great time shooting your weddings and engagements. Congratulations!!

I’d like to Thank all my awesome clients for coming back again and again, I love watching your lives evolve in my photos. And to all the new clients I hope to see you in 2012 and beyond also. 2012 is going to be a great year for wedding photography as I am about 90% booked for the peak season. If you are getting married and want me let me know asap and I’ll check your date….I could use a few off-season weddings as always too. I will be at this years Bridal Show on the 14th of January at the Bayshore, say hi if you are there too.

I’ll be back to blog some actual photos very soon, really I will. For now I must clean the fish tank…ah, the glamourous life of a photographer/mama.

Happy New Year again, have a great night, be safe!!

My favourite!

Cuteness! Miss O wasn’t my biggest fan but we did get a few smiles from her.

These guys were married at the same location last summer. Great to see the whole crew again!! Thanks for having me.

Mini Sessions will be held at Harrison Park here in Owen Sound on October 1st. Drop me an email at chris@owensoundphoto.com or click HERE for all the details.

If the date doesn’t work for you I am thinking of adding a second day, drop me a line if you are interested.

A perfect blue sky day!!

Greg had an accident just weeks before the wedding and was still in quite a bit of pain on the big day. He was a trooper and smiled through the photos for me.

I loved the decor for this wedding!! They had a lot of birch accents that looked fabulous.

The table seating plan in birch!

Their nieces and nephew entertained me all day.

Congrats guys & welcome back from your honeymoon.

This is their first look, we decided the time line worked better to do most of the photos before the ceremony. This is them seeing each other for the first time.

We stayed at Linda’s family farm but were all over it for the photos.

Um, Thanks? Not sure what I did to deserve this, maybe Joan was nearby and they were aiming for her.

Linda had ordered some fun umbrellas just in case of rain and we ended up using them anyway.

Fireworks!!! This was a total surprise, they did know, I didn’t know. It was a great moment but next time a little heads up to the photographer might be appropriate…not the easiest lighting situation!

It was a great day and weekend away from my kids! Thanks for having me.

{don’t break into my house you’ll scare the crap out of the sitter!}

Here are some photos from last year to make you jealous…and to get me excited!!

We do a lot of water sports…

some reading…

And WAY too much eating and drinking!

Back to packing…

Beautiful bride Nicole and her handsome groom below. Wilma’s Flower Shoppe did the flowers and custom boutonniere complete with bullet casing for them, a cute touch.

Their wedding happened to be on the same day as Doors Open Ontario so I was trilled to discover that we were able to shoot INSIDE the More Estate. Nicole teases me about how excited I was.

My favourite tree….again.

I love this group shot, great light, great location, great crew…I think the flower girl is fading though!

And done…Miss Flower Girl is officially over me. I love this shot of her!

Pitchers of Beer at each table=awesome idea!!! This was a big hit with the guests.

This was the best mother & daughter dance EVER! {I got it from my mama!}

Thanks for having me guys, it was great to meet you!
