Vines Resort Wedding | Shannon and Pierre

I had the biggest privilege of being the photographer for this Vines Resort wedding. Ever since that first inquiry email, I knew there was something special about these two. In every email since, they have been my dream clients. You can read a little bit of there story here and here to catch up. Shannon was the perfect mix of knowing what she wanted and trusting me to get those photographs she would look back on to tell the story of her wedding day. Pierre is her rock, her perfect mix of fun, support, keeping her grounded during the process and cheekiness. Together they are a perfect team. (I’ve used the word perfect a lot, I realise this but its for a reason!!)

Their January wedding came around and they picked an amazing day weather-wise. 27 degrees and some cloud cover. The Vines Resort is such a beautiful place to get married. Their ceremony at the Garden Pavillion was simply beautiful. I’m a sucker at weddings and was holding back my own tears when Pierre saw Shannon walk down the aisle. It was evident that becoming husband and wife was so important to them. Their personalised wedding vows, the way they looked into each other’s eyes and their celebration as they walked back down the aisle, hand in hand as husband and wife.

Thank you for including me in your wedding day. Shannon, I’m so glad that you just happen to sit on the train next to my mother in law and chatted with her about the fact you were engaged. Thank you both for trusting me with such an important part of your day. The journey has been incredible and I’m so blessed that I have been able to share it with you and now to continue to do so as friends! You guys have such big hearts for each other and others and I can’t wait to see how you grow in love for one another. Here’s to the next adventure!
