Andrew Meets His Match

Cambridge Mill, Cambridge, Ontario

I met Stacey and Andrew at a wedding show in the fall of 2019, and made their engagement photos at Victoria Park that October. They brought with them a game called “Balance” that they love to play in their spare time. They set it up on a picnic table and played for a while as I took photos. I loved their comfort with each other. That comfort was evident at their Cambridge Mill wedding on October 4 – they smiled at each other all day long. After the ceremony, as they were taking to guests, they held hands even when they were talking to different groups of people.

In his best-man speech, Andrew’s brother mentioned that the family had grown convinced that Andrew would be a bachelor for life — until Andrew started talking about Stacey, and wouldn’t stop. Stacey’s teenaged daughter made a lovely video outlining the courtship (and she used that word), which started out close and got closer by the day. I noticed more than a few moist eyes as the video played. It’s such an honour to get to witness the culmination of courtships like this, and to see the smiles of pure love.
