Shirel & Jeremy: A perfect post wedding session
In the world of photography, there's a dance between planning and spontaneity, where the unexpected often leads to the most remarkable moments. This is the story of a post-wedding photo session that unfolded in a perfect spring afternoon, blending meticulously planned elements with the serendipity of last-minute changes and heartfelt rituals.
With the sun poised to paint the sky in hues of warmth and radiance, the decision to shift locations came swiftly, guided by the promising forecast that beckoned us towards a different location than originally planned. Just 24 hours before the session, as the weather forecast whispered promises of perfection, we decided to take a leap of faith and change locations. Dont get me wrong. Angrignon Park, a beautiful park just 7 minutes west of Montreal, is a beautiful location, full of greenery, hiking paths and a beautiful lake to top it of.
But as I was following weather patterns and realize we were going to have a clear sky and a beautiful sunset, I decided to shoot this session at René-Lévesque park, a splendorous by the river small park, 15 minutes west of Montreal.
I mean, you have to see this location to believe it. With the shape of a small peninsula, where the sun touches the horizon with no buildings or mountains in the way, it is the perfect location for a jog, walk, picnic… or a photo-session.
The riverside setting, though not initially on our radar, unveiled its charms as the session progressed. What began as a leap of faith transformed into a journey of discovery, as we navigated between posed images and candid captures, each frame narrating a story of love, laughter, and shared dreams.
As the last rays of sunlight lingered upon the horizon, casting a golden glow upon the river's edge, Jeremy, true to his faiths and beliefs, took a few moments for his daily prayers. In a quiet moment of reverence, he found solace in his spiritual practice, a poignant reminder of the sanctity of love and the power of gratitude amidst life's fleeting moments.
With the session now complete, the sky ablaze with the vibrant hues of sunset, I couldn't help but marvel at the tapestry of emotions woven into each photograph. From the stolen glances to the whispered vows, every image bore witness to the magic of two souls intertwining in a journey of love and devotion.
In all of our photo sessions, as well as weddings and other events, we always try to create a perfect blend of posed images with perfect candid and natural moments. We strive to show the real connections between a couple and their true selves as well as their love for each other. If you want to see our portfolio, click here and book a free consultation with us.
