I shot my first wedding earlier in the month. I was a little nervous taking this on because not only was I going to be the photographer, but I was also a groomsman. This brought about a few challenges but fortunately for me, my girlfriend Talia joined me on the shoot. Talia was able to pick up all the shots I had to be in. This took a big weight off my shoulders. I couldn't imagine having to set up the shots on a tripod, setting a timer and running into the shot. I probably would have been a sweaty mess from all the running. That wouldn't have been an ideal situation. Crisis avoided!
Despite being a bit nervous the day went on smoothly and the pictures came out great. I've delivered the final product and I'm really excited that the bride and groom are happy with the photos. All and all this was a very positive experience and I'm looking forward to my next wedding shoot.
Here are some of my favourite shots from the wedding. Let me know what you think!

Read MoreALBUM COVER for BURN YOUR WORLD
I had a really cool opportunity to shoot an album cover for a Winnipeg band called Burn Your World. The photo was shot at Elmwood Cemetery here in Winnipeg for their album "A Burden, For All Your Days". This grave is said to be haunted by the ghost of a little boy named Joseph. If you go on the right night people say he comes out to play. I have done stories on local ghost hunters who have photos of mysterious smoke and orbs around this site. Whether it's a camera error or a real ghost is to be debated.
Ghost stories aside, I'm super stoked to get the opportunity to make this album cover for these guys. If you like hardcore music you should give them a listen. The link is below, along with the original photo and album cover. ENJOY! :)
