Tyler and Melinda were married last year at the Gibson Centre in Alliston, Ontario. I photographed their engagement portraits a few months prior to their wedding here in Barrie up at Sunnidale Park and then down on Barrie’s beautiful waterfront. I love photographing engagement and pre-wedding portrait sessions. It gives my clients the opportunity to have fun together and also helps them feel relaxed while getting their photos taken which helps them feel even more relaxed for their bridal portraits on their wedding day.

Tyler loves cars. I am not a car person myself, so I can’t remember the year or make of Tyler’s vintage car that we used in our portrait session, but it definitely added a great element to the portraits on the waterfront! We also used this car for a few bridal portraits on their wedding day which I will share with you soon. Their wedding was amazing! Melinda is a graphic designer and also has an Etsy shop filled with very cool wall graphics which you can check out here. Melinda used her skills to create many of the wedding design and décor elements that she incorporated into their wedding day. If you love DIY weddings, you are going to LOVE Tyler & Melinda’s wedding! It was such a unique wedding with beautiful personal touches.
