Here’s Lisa and Scott, I first met them at Andrea (Lisa’s sister) and Scott’s wedding last year. For their engagement shoot we headed to the St. Joseph Island bridge and then Lisa’s relatives place on the water. Jes and Domino came along for the shoot to scout some locations and throw acorns from the sideline. (We were actually visiting with Michela and Aaron before the shoot as they were “back home” for their Ontario reception/come-and-go).

After the shot of Lisa and Scott on the dock (seen below) I was hopping across rocks to get back to land; on may I lost my balance and proceeded to spike my camera off the ground. It was almost like I was celebrating getting the shot and assumed my camera was a football. Lisa and Scott were staring at me in shock, Jes and Domino were on land staring at me also in shock and I’m sure I had a similar look on my face. I picked up the camera, aimed it at Jes and Dom, fired it off and we were good to go! I should really wrap my stuff in bubble wrap or something.

Thanks for the fun afternoon guys and I’m looking forward to February!

We’re on a boat, we’re on a boat, everyone look at us ’cause we’re sailing on a boat.

Now how awesome is this? A sailboat ride and engagement photos! Chelsea ran the idea of having her engagement pictures shot on her dad’s sailboat and I couldn’t pass it up. In hindsight, shooting on an actual moving sailboat is probably one of the hardest things I’ve tried shooting on; it has to rank right up there with shooting while riding a donkey. My main concern was just staying on the boat.

Chelsea and Trevor were awesome. They helped Chelsea’s dad launch the boat from the Hilton Marina on St. Joseph Island and were willing to get out on it for some great shots during our ride. After the boat ride we walked around the marina using the boardwalk and some of the buildings as backdrops. It was a fun night out and definitely something new for me.

Thanks for the adventure Chelsea and Trevor!
