Celebrating our anniversary with a photo shoot

Every year, on the same day in June, we return to Atlantis Coffee Shop to celebrate the anniversary of our first date.

June 3rd has become a special day in our relationship. As described in Our Story, our first date was a cup of coffee and a stroll through the Farmer's Market. What we thought would be a casual conversation that would maybe take an hour, ended up lasting many hours. 
We thought it was very fitting, since we had decided to organize our wedding in 2017 on the fifth anniversary of our first date, to have our engagement photos taken to celebrate our fourth.

​Our fabulous photographer, Jamie from JLW Photography spent many hours photographing us in some of our favourite locations around downtown Regina. From capturing us drinking coffee in Atlantis to taking photos on a bench in Victoria Park, we now have many photos documenting these special places. This is something we will always treasure!

We are also planning a French vintage theme for our wedding and tried to incorporate a few touches into our photo session to make our theme start to come alive. From the little model Eiffel Tower, to a French picnic with wine, brie and grapes to an old book and an umbrella, it was a lot of fun to gather some props for the shoot.

As a bride who is sad that some very important family members are no longer with us and will be dearly missed on our wedding day, I wanted to pay tribute some of the people that have played a special role in our lives. My paternal grandparents' have left us with some fabulous old photos. In particular, the honeymoon photos they took inspired some of our shoot. I managed to find an old vintage suitcase that was similar to the one that they took on their first trip as a married couple in May 1947. ​The suitcase shows up in many of the photos and hints to a different time. Some of the family's favourite photos from their honeymoon were of the couple hitchhiking to Regina from Carnduff.  Although we took no specific hitchhiking photos during our shoot, the photos taken near the old STC bus depot and in front of the Balfour apartment building speak to that post-World War Two era. ​​

We have used a lot of the beautiful photos our photographer took during this shoot on our website and in our wedding stationary. We hope you enjoy them as you read our story and are checking out our other wedding related information. We feel that they definitely captured our love for one and other as well as the true happiness we have been blessed to find that third day of June back in 2012.
