Saturday the 20th was a double wedding day for us at the studio…
Elizabeth was out in Quebec city while Neel, Paulo and I were in town shooting Katharine and Patrick’s winter nuptials, which was held at the prestigious Mount Royal Club. Here are a few of my favourite shots from their elegant ceremony and wildly entertaining, karaoke-filled reception. The highlights of the night for us was watching the best man’s animated slideshow about the groom (aka PACKER)…it was easily one of the most well-crafted, hilarious slideshows we’ve ever witnessed at a wedding (and we’ve seen a LOT of slideshows in our time). Another great moment was when the bride’s father broke into “Shake a Tail Feather” onstage as his daughter and friends shook around with their “tail feathers” in the air. The night ended with some good-old slow songs such as Neil Young’s “Harvest Moon”, and I can still see the groom’s parents gazing into each others’ eyes as they danced to that one… It was a beautiful sight!
