Somewhere in their planning, Roxanne and Scott looked at each other and decided “this big wedding thing just isn’t “us”‘. So, they changed their original plans and focused on having a small and meaningful celebration with their families. I always love intimate weddings such as this one – it seems like even more of an honour to be invited to document an event that is so private. There were many beautiful moments that happened on this day: my favorites being the reading Roxanne’s Granny gave, and an impromptu visit to their house during the photo session so we could get their dog in some photos!
