So my plan was to include all my behind the scenes snaps in a post with all my favourite images for the year.. but because that post would probably be longer than I can even begin to imagine… I figure I would break them up. Before I share my favourite images of my 2016 Wedding season, I thought it would be fun to share all my behind the scenes first! The year was jam packed with 25 Weddings, 29 including the Weddings I second shot for other photographers, & every single one was a new adventure! From Road trips & McDonalds lunch runs… to so many veil flips I can’t even count! It was in one word: amazing! & As I look back at these images, I’m so grateful for the ladies who all helped me get through this tough but incredible year. Thank you guys for not only being my assistants, but for being my good friends. I absolutely love what we captured together & heaps of love for all your hard work this season. I so appreciate all these fun behind the scenes you’ve included for me as a bonus! Clearly I love my kimonos & I only had 1 pair of comfortable boots this season LOL & I swear my hair does look decent at the beginning of the day…… yikes!
Thank you to all my couples for letting me & my second shooters share your big day with you! We try to make it fun & enjoyable, while working our butts off & giving you memories to treasure 🙂
Enjoy!
This was a photo from one of Raelene’s Weddings I second shot for her this year & I just had to share LOL we take our job very seriously!
My “Chloe Sandwich” goal this year was to take a photo with each of my couples! Of course I always remembered at the end of the day so I’m a sweaty mess in most of them! & I am devastated I forgot a few!
“I found the spot!!”
Matching HOF – yes!
“Now? Can I flip it now, Chloe? Are you ready yet?”
Sometimes you need to wear the accessories so they don’t fly away!
I get distracted easily….
Second shooting for Lissaloo Photography!
Hey Kaylee!
More dress & veil flips
I never realized how short I was…..
More veil/accessory wearing techniques…. doesn’t every photographer do this?
Babies & Animals….. our favourite <3
I sometimes sit down on the job… hey you would too working 13-16 hour days!
I will find & love on ALL the animals <3
Now I wish I captured this entire moment as it was happening. Raelene fell into a hole & into Mike as she was setting him up for groom portraits LOL
Oh Raelene, you dancing queen
When I’m testing light for the first dance, Raelene likes to fully commit to being my model
Fixing & fluffing.. always fixing & fluffing!
Gondola Rides!
Instead of SAYING what I’d like you to do, I show you
JUST LOOK AT OUR BRIDE!!!!
It’s great shooting with Raelene… you barely know she’s there
Again, I take my job very seriously..
Raelene always makes sure portraits are perfect
I even enlist the help of bridesmaids for dress & veil flips! Thanks Rachel! 😉
GO RAELENE! GO!
Roadtrips!
Just me, loving what I do more than anything 🙂
Thumbs up!
