They say that rain on a wedding day is a sign of fantastic fortune. If rain for the week leading up to the wedding day holds true as well, Mark and Lisa will undoubtably have eternal happiness.
We didn’t have perfect weather for their engagement session, so TO THE AIRPORT WE HEADED. We didn’t have a lot of time for their wedding portraits, so beside the airport we headed. Iona Beach is located right next to the Vancouver airport and close to Lisa and Mark’s wedding reception in Richmond, so we felt this theme was our lucky charm with them.
In fact, the airport theme wasn’t inappropriate at all. Lisa and Mark lived apart for some time, and dated online via Skype, which they called Skating. Hardcore Skating, that is.
So, we approached their wet wedding day with our creative juices flowing, and thank these two wonderful people for trusting us with our ideas.
