Kathi + Bernhard

Summer Wedding at a Ski Resort

Sometimes running a blog is ungrateful. Sometimes I have to say I’d rather watch another episode of True Blood, Homeland or whatever we’re currently addicted to, than take an hour or two to prepare a new post… But then I come across the work of photographers I don’t know about already, and it’s like a slap in the face – or in the eyes, for that matter. Roland is one of those photographers. I mean, the guy is a magician! Have a look at that post, have a good look at it and then go spend some time on his own blog too… I’m sure this won’t be some time wasted! Now about the wedding? What would you call a sunny Summer wedding at a ski resort with snow-capped peaks as a backdrop? Perfect may be quite close to the word I’m looking for. Photos by Roland Faistenberger Photography.

The wedding happened on July 19th, 2014 in Schladming, Austria.

The word of the photographer.

The wedding of Kathi and Bernhard was an intimate one: just their best friends and family got together in Schladmin, Austria, which is an important place for the two of them. I’m very happy about the trust this couple gave me. It was a perfect match, I enjoyed the entire day! The ceremony took place on top of a mountain, and after that we took some photos in the almost surreal surroundings. Just a perfect day!

Tattoos & Snow – a Couple Session by -30

This couple left town to move to this place (the Kawarthas, Canada), closer to nature. I guess this is the reason why it looks so intimate and powerful: we can basically feel how quiet this place is, and how peaceful these two human beings seem to be. I love his tattoos, I love her long vest over that green dress. Those two are beautiful, and they’re in love. Chances are you’ll be as seduced and speeachless as I was when I saw these pictures! Photography by Andreea and Nino of The Love Studio.

The word of the photographers.

Andreea and Tony are a study in contrasts…when you first set your eyes upon them. She is measured, polished, attentive to detail. She has to be: she spends her days leading a team of nurses. Tony, on the other hand, is inked all over, spends his days constructing forms, creating the foundations of buildings. He loves everything he can get his hands on: the guitar, the piano, the bow and arrow. After living his whole life in Toronto, he decided a change of pace was necessary. He decided he wanted to dive in deeper, not spread himself thin. And so, he moved to the Kwarthas. With her love of nature, Andreea soon joined him. And last week they invited us up to spend some time with them. It must have been one of the coldest days of the year…but at least for half of the shoot we were warm inside. They cooked us a never-ending breakfast, played dress up, and braved -30 and almost frostbite so we can get the shot. Andreea and Tony, thank you for trusting us with your story and welcoming us into your home. We’re sure it won’t be the last time.

Winter Hockey Themed Wedding

Summer’s finally here, so what, won’t you let me blog a winter hockey themed wedding? I love weddings that include some activity, I think it definitely adds something… so, hockey? Hell yeah! Also, I love the idea of a pre-wedding welcome party, has anyone of you had one? Photography by Julian Kanz, out of Italy.

Danielle and Tyler got married in February in Mont Tremblant, Québec. They love to travel and take any opportunity to enter a plane; no surprise they got engaged during one of their trips! Here’s their story.

In the beginning of 2012, Tyler’s parents planned a family trip for a month to Italy, and like we always do, we jumped on board. Prior to meeting them in Florence, we decided to spend a week on our own on a small romantic Island called ‘Ischia’ just off Naples and north of ‘Capri’. As soon as we arrived we went for dinner and watched the sun set over he ocean at a bar called ‘Antonio’s’. It was the best bruschetta we have ever had and we don’t say things like that very easily! After that we walked to the end of a pier and soon Tyler disappeared out of sight around the end of the pier where there was no more restaurants or people. He told me to come out there for the view of the island. When we were ready to turn back to the restaurants, he pulled on my arm and turned me around while he said ‘there is a reason that I brought you all the way out here.’ I was shocked to see him down on one knee and became so excited that I barely gave him time to ask me before I started saying ‘yes yes yes!

Name one thing you regret…

We should have purchased a cake from the local bakery.  Our cake collapsed during the 7 hour car ride from Toronto and had to be pieced back together in Mont Tremblant.  It was a huge headache and hassle to bring it from that far but it was absolutely delicious!!!

… And one thing you’re really happy about/ proud of.

Looking around the campfire at our welcome party holding a specialty hot coffee and watching all of our friends and family enjoy the skating and sleigh rides while the snow began falling in huge flakes. Best night of our lives.
