FOGO ISLAND WEDDING : STEPHANIE + SEAN

Stephanie's gorgeous Alfred Angelo dress hung on the curtain rail against the blue sky. The sun shined brightly outside while the cool sea breeze blew in through the window. It was a beautiful day on Fogo Island. A perfect day for a wedding. Stephanie prepared in the small town of Seldom, while Sean waited to see his bride twenty-something kilometres away in his hometown of Tilting. 

On Saturday, August 15, Stephanie and Sean exchanged vows and rings at St. Patrick's church. As the pair left the church as husband and wife, local residents fired shot guns into the air - a long-standing wedding tradition in Tilting - while others lined the street to join in saluting the newlywed couple.

The breathtaking scenery in Tilting offered the perfect backdrop for their Newfoundland wedding. Rolling hills, rugged coastline, a myriad of fishing stages and dramatic skies - the locations for photos were endless. We took photos on many of the same rocks and fishing stages Sean would play on as a boy.

After a decade-long relationship, Stephanie and Sean planned the perfect wedding. They invited beloved family and friends from all parts of the province and beyond to Fogo Island for a full day of love, laughter and celebration. While embracing their five-month-old son, Braden, they toasted to a life of love and happiness together. 

Stephanie and Sean, Thank you for the amazing opportunity to once again photograph a wedding in the oh-so-beautiful community of Tilting, Fogo Island It was by far, a highlight of my summer.
