My first lead wedding shoot at photoVanBeek was an amazing introduction to the 2011 season. Please enjoy! – Julie

In a wonderful community just north of Ottawa in the Gatineau hills, Paula and Levi got married on a beautiful, albeit chilly, April day. From the intimate ceremony performed by a good family friend to the emotional speeches at the reception, this was truly a heart-warming wedding. Paula made her own gorgeous wedding gown and headpiece, and the Mustang they drove away in was borrowed from a family member. Personal touches were endless and it was truly an honour to be a part of their special day.

Paula is my cousin and I wanted to say thank you for capturing her special day in such a beautiful and meaning way. I absolutely love the photos!

Stunning pictures! I wish you had been around when I got married. 🙂

I love the feel of these shots. So personal! I agree with Angela, a pitchfork would have been so fun. That last shot is breath taking!

What a beautiful array of photo’s. I love the one with the bridesmaids all wearing their rainboots. Too cute.

Great job, Julie! It looks like you really caught the feeling of the wedding.

Absolutely amazing pics, Julie! They make me wish I could get married again and hire you as my photographer.

Wow, what an absolutely gorgeous wedding. And the photos are stunning. Well done, Julie, as always you’ve managed to capture the essence of a very lovely event.

What wonderful work! I love the clarity of the photos and the way you captured the essence of the couple!

Impossible to pick a fav, Julie!
I do kind of wish there was one of the bride and groom in front of the house holding a pitchfork 😉

Gorgeous photographs! I think you did a great job of capturing the unique beauty of the wedding.
