Fresh out of graduate school, the first wedding I photographed was for my grad school buddy, Joe Hallock and his bride-to-be, Maureen. The wedding took place at the famous Empress Hotel in Victoria, British Columbia. The scenery and day was absolutely gorgeous, which made for just about as perfect and outdoor wedding can be. A wedding of this size was a bit daunting being my very first one I’d be doing professionally, but I think everything turned out great.
