Yesterday, we travelled to the village of Cobden in the Ottawa Valley for the wedding of Penny and Aaron.  Well, to be more exact, the wedding was at Penny’s family farm on the outskirts of Cobden and the with the weather cooperating beautifully, we witnessed (and captured) one of the most heartfelt weddings…you see, Penny and Aaron sort of go against the grain.  Upon meeting them, you’re struck that Aaron is very tall and Penny, well Penny is petite in stature-after seeing them together though, I can only say that the size of their love for each other is only amplified by the difference in height!  These two absolutely adore each other;  it was obvious in their pre ceremony nerves, the bashful glances at each other while Penny was walking towards her soon to be husband, and most of all by the way they gazed at each other throughout their ceremony.

Life and the fate of health has thrown them a fast hardball over the last year, and the speeches made during dinner made for many happy, thankful tears and more than one toast to a long and happy, healthy life together. 

If you ever get a chance to attend an Ottawa Valley wedding, jump at it!  The people are generous, funloving, and they sure know how to host a great party!  The dancefloor was full all night, and at some points, even spilled out onto the grass…we even jumped on the floor for a couple after our equipment was packed for the night!  After Aaron’s grandfather busted up the dancefloor to “YMCA”, we had to join in on the fun!

The farm gave us loads of material to work with, and we love the shots we captured as the evening wore on…
