Tyler & Amy Tie the Knot!

You may remember Tyler & Amy from their engagement shoot at the firehall a few months back. Their January 24th wedding took place 10 years to the day since they first met, when Tyler was the firefighter who showed up to put out Amy’s small cooking accident.

The festivities took place at the gorgeous River Rock Casino in Richmond, and their penthouse was a great spot for a giggly girls morning. I warn you, this post is going to be photo heavy, but I had trouble narrowing it down.

Hair & Makeup were done by the fantastic Jinesa & Nicole from Pamper Me Pretty. www.pampermepretty.com
Coincidentally, I hired Pamper Me Pretty to do hair & makeup at my wedding almost 5 years ago!

The girls were stylish in silver heels, and the clutch was Amy’s grandmother’s.

I’m sorry Cathy, but this moment is just too precious to ignore.

Meanwhile, my lovely & talented assistant Andrea was chillin’ with the boys.

Their confusion in this photo is priceless. “What do we do with these”?!

Had time to grab a few fun shots with the family before the limo arrived. Makes it easy to do family photos in the morning when your bridesmaids are your sisters!

Gotta love window light!

Papparazzi! The adoring fans of the newlyweds.

I think my favourite thing about being around Amy & Tyler (and their families) is the laughter. No stiff poses for this group!

Off to the boardwalk with the wedding party for some photo time. One of my favourite shots of the day.

Such a sweet moment.

They were all such troopers even though they were shivering. These poor girls in strapless dresses in January didn’t let a little cold stop them, and had a great time taking some fun photos.

Caught a couple more little moments before we headed off to the reception.

First dance. I love to see this look on a groom’s face.

As a photographer, I get so excited when some sort of crazy group dance breaks out at a wedding, and this crew didn’t let me down. A little Ra Ra Rasputin really gets a crowd going!

I had a fantastic time, guys, and it’s been great getting to know you. I really appreciate being considered more like a new friend than a vendor. Congratulations!

  1. Hi Jana

    Dick and I loved the photos you put up on your blog. They are such a beautiful couple and their joy was, and is, contaigous. Thank you so much for your kind words in this posting. I think we as parents are very blessed with such wonderful children, so of course when I see such great photographs I am even happier.

    Can I ask a small favour? Our Saviour Lutheran Church has a website. Do you think you could tag it for us too? (If you have time to go back in that is, it would be very much appreciated.) It is: http://www.oursaviour.ca

    I look forward to seeing all of the pictures you took on Amy and Tyler’s day, in fact seeing all of the wonderful engagements photos too! If anyone ever asks me about a photographer you know Wink Photography is the name of the company I will be recommending.

    Many thanks once again,
    Allyson and Dick Aporta
    Parents of the Bride
