Julie & Jeff Simpson (Engagement Photos)

When my best friend Julie announced that she was to marry the "man of her dreams" Jeff (or Jeffy as we all call him); I couldn't have been more thrilled! And of course quickly after discussing how he "did it" and if "he got down on one knee"...you know all the questions that girls ask one another after that special moment: first thought was engagement pictures. This is my first official engagement shoot, and I couldn't have been more pleased to share in this moment with my girl and her man! I had tons of shots with Jeffy being his goofy self (hence why we got along right away), but we got some great ones. It was an extremely special moment afterwards as Julie was acting odd and not being her "Kooky" self when she starts making a speech to me and asking me to be one of the two Matron of Honours in the wedding. We of course both cried, hugged and giggled! I adore you Kooks and Jeffy!

Poeta Wedding - May 30/09


Ok so I know that it's almost been two years since our wedding, and I haven't really posted any of our pictures. It's ironic that as much as I LOVE photography that photos weren't a huge priority for us; as long as we got a couple good pictures we were happy. And I have to say our favourite one of course is a goofy one (surprise surprise). So here are a few pictures from our wedding which took place on May 30, 2009. Thank you to all that shared in our special day. I'm editing and doing a few collages which will be posted shortly.....



So for those of you that don't know our story; we first met in grade seven at Mother St. Bride, we then dated for the most part of high school at St. Joseph Scollard Hall. We went our separate ways for College (but that didn't last long as we began dating again, and then once again parted ways). Ten years later got back in touch, and that brings us to our happy ending. Guess what they say about timing is true...took us awhile but we've got our happy ending! :)







We couldn't have asked for a better wedding party filled with family and friends! Kristin Taylor, Lee-Anne Fava, Becca Allan, Michelle Cundari, Julie Simpson, Megan Cundari, Me, My handsome husband Dan, Nicholas Cundari, Bryon Messier, Mike Fava, Chris Tucker, Josh Young, and Aaron Bean.
