Kristin + Jamie Married // Peterborough ON Wedding Photographer

 A schedule was made and every minute was accounted for, but like most wedding's the timing wasn't perfect... The hair appointments took longer and the groomsmen were running a little late after golfing. The boutonniere's had the wrong flowers, and the limo got stuck at the drive in. But none of these 'little things' as Kristin called them mattered.

Because this was their wedding day. It was finally here, after the months of planning and preparation and excitement. Today was the day that Kristin and Jamie would promise a lifetime of love to one another and they didn't let anything stop them from laughing, loving and having an amazing time.

June 6th, 2011 my life changed forever.
As we drove to the hospital that morning to be induced I was nervous, but after being a week overdue I was ready. I was ready for the pain (or so I thought). I was ready to finally lay eyes on my gorgeous little girl. I was ready to be a mother.

My labour was just over 4 hours, it was short but painful (I took the drugs lol) but at 4:18 when this little bundle was put into my arms, I could have done it all again in a heartbeat. Words cannot describe the feeling. The instant love that took place was incredible.

As I sit here and write this post,  a week and two days later I can't believe how fast time has gone by. It feels like yesterday that Matt and I found out we were expecting, and at the same time as we're getting into the swing of life with baby Olivia I can't seem to remember what our house smelled like before this sweet baby smell that now fills it, or how we filled our time before ogling over this little piece of perfection.

I am beyond blessed.

Here's a few images we've captured over the last week in our daily photoshoots (I couldn't ask for a better model :)
