Sarah and Jon, two of a kind

June 8, 2008

Mark was out of town when I got the call from Jon about a month ago announcing his engagement to Sarah. I was so excited for them!!! They are dear friends of ours- Mark and Jon grew up together, and I first met Jon in high school. Jon and Sarah’s first date was actually at our place one night. But when I found out they are getting married this summer, my heart sank because I assumed we wouldn’t be able to attend their wedding. I held my breath on the phone and let Jon talk about the plans, and by some miracle, they chose to have their wedding on the last summer weekend we had open, and, they want us to be their wedding photographers! Yessss! We are so happy that we are going to be there for their wedding day.

Jon and Sarah’s engagement session brings us to Granville Island, on a typical rainy Vancouver evening. You can see progress in hair curliness as the night goes on : )

In the middle of the shoot, I could tell that Jon was feeling quite goofy- though most of us know that’s pretty normal for Jon. So I asked him to let out all the goof he had bottled up for the last half hour. It took about three seconds before he accidentally hit his head, which I think ended up having a calming effect on him for the rest of the evening : )

Yay!!! Sarah and Jon are getting married and we’re so excited for you! Thanks for the fun night in the rain!

Janie: Hey you, I was really looking forward to these pictures and they turned out great!!! It's so crazy to see 2 of my close friends in love, when it was only last summer when I was trying to get Jon to notice her at Mark's Granville Island day. You did AWESOME of course...they are really beautiful. (sniff) can't wait til the wedding!

Leslie: Thanks for the blog love Janie! Can't wait until we get to do the same for you!

Keri Travis: Great photos! Congratulations John and Sarah! You two are cute together!
