Melissa Johnston Photography

Simon is constantly making Caroline giggle and blush, they really are adorable together. It was a blast to shoot these two because I could really see how head over heels they are for each other. It’s such a pleasure to be able to capture such happiness on camera. I am even more excited to be photographing their wedding next April in Mexico! I cannot wait for the gorgeous photo opportunities we will end up having down South, especially since they are both so photogenic – it’s definitely a bonus

I’m going to take this time to mention that I will be away from June 29th until the 2nd. During this time I will have limited access to my email, please be patient and I will get back to you upon my return. I have loads more to blog so keep checking in from time to time.

I leave you with Caroline’s beautiful smile:

This little family is very special to me. I first met them during their maternity shoot in Punta Cana, then I was honoured to capture their beautiful baby girl Olivia just under a year ago. When Lindsay contacted me to see if I could take pictures of all 3 of them, I was delighted. Their are no words that come close to explaining how amazing it is to see a family grow like I did with Lindsay and Matts.

I am so thankful for clients like Angela and Ryan. They really are the nicest most genuine people I have ever worked with. Not only were they so relaxed and nice, but they were up for anything I suggested, including walking around in mud and a field of really tall weeds in high heels! Now, I am not saying that I try to get everyone to do that but they were determined to get the nicest pictures, and that they got!

For the first shots, they wanted to have some pictures taken with another very close family member…Bosco:

Then we let Bosco run around and have some fun while we went on with the shoot.

Angela told me she LOVED sunflare shots, so that’s what I gave her!

I don’t know why I am so in love with this next shot…

The forecast predicted thunder and rain all day…but as it turned out the sun came out just in time for Josee and Jeremy’s beautiful ceremony, and it stayed shining bright for the rest of the day! Josee and Jeremy are both really sweet people and so great to work with. Despite their “small” height difference, they really are a perfect match. I could tell Jeremy was proud to wear Josee on his arm by the huge smile across his face all day long.

Its so refreshing to have a newborn shoot in the middle of my hectic wedding season. Little Rachel definitely kept me on my toes the whole time, but she was one adorable little girl!
