Gwen and Andy Wedding 2009

           

I love these guys. Gwen and Andy are a happy couple; sure, you hear that a lot about people who are about to get married or just did - but Gwendo (as we usually call them) are down to earth, chill, awesome people every day. It was an amazing honour to be the photographer at their wedding. Nothing could break their amazing spirits - even the rain. We endured the ceremony in a tiny sprinkling of rain - but when it came to the family photos, it came down a little harder. Gwen smiled even more brilliantly than before. What more do you need for inspiration, seriously...!

                

 

 
 
 

Headshots

Patti is a really great friend of mine - we`ve been having dinners, wine and amazing chats for years. She is also a mediator and belongs to a few of the law group rosters (B.C. Mediator Roster, and the Collaborative Family Law in Victoria). She was a lot of fun to work with - as we spent the first part of our day rummaging through Patti`s closet and jewelery cases to find the most exciting of outfits without looking too crazy. We settled on something simple, yet effective. She was a bundle of joy and energy.

Marli is an acquaintance through my friend Gabriel Cann. She is also a mediator here in Victoria and same like Patti, was an immense ball of energy to work with. We chose the Parliament Building in Victoria as our venue - but their gardens and fountains proved to be the hot spots for our session. It was an amazing way to spend the morning.

The Blogger Beginnings...

Welcome to the dot.com (aka. Dottie Wieclawska's Photography) blog. While blogging is new to me, photography isn't. I hope this will be a fun and creative way of showing anyone who is interested about my up to date experiences in the photo world of Victoria, B.C. and the surrounding areas.

I hope to share my adventures as I encounter them - and hopefully you will laugh, cry, enjoy them with me!

I've always wanted to do something like this... but never had the time and energy to put anything together. Thank goodness they make it so easy now :P
