Danielle Arnold Photography shares Allie and Terence’s stunning, fun nature inspired Berkeley Fieldhouse wedding.
Can you elaborate on how a wedding album has the potential to keep reminders close.
From the moment you get ready until the end of your reception, wedding images help tell the story of your day. It’s a way to preserve the memories and transport you back to your day. After your wedding, photos are the one thing that will stay forever. They allow you to relive those special moments and emotions, as time goes by.
How do you think the design and wedding style choices communicated the couples personalities and intentions for their day?
The couple intentionally chose a venue that reflected their intended aesthetic. Potted plants, vintage rugs, and dried botanicals reflected their laid-back bohemian modern style.
How does having lifestyle and branding photography as part of your career influence the way you capture a wedding day?
As a wedding photographer, I recognize that the wedding “story”and the “brand” are interwoven. My knowledge and experience of branding and lifestyle photography gives me valuable insights in anticipating what story the couple wants to communicate to both loved ones and the public.
What was your couples response when they first received their album from you?
The couple were ecstatic with the final album. Not only were they pleased with the style and attention to detail in the photos themselves, but they appreciated my unique approach on capturing their story. Their family were grateful that I added a grounding presence to the overall experience.
How do you prioritize what moments you want to archive in a wedding day?
Throughout each wedding day there are many meaningful moments – putting on the dress, the first look, walking down the aisle, the vows- the list goes on. It’s important to chat with the couple to see what’s important to them and prioritize those.
What were some of the aspects of Berkeley Fieldhouse that made them chose it as a wedding venue and how did you incorporate and highlight these qualities in your album?
In speaking with the couple, they loved the indoor and outdoor space and the overall vibe of the venue. It meant they could hold a gorgeous outdoor ceremony, have a chill cocktail hour, and then head inside for a strolling dinner, and party all without leaving the city. They also loved that it was really intimate and they didn’t have to add a lot of decor because the space is already so beautiful – truly a little oasis right off of Queen Street.
How does having multiple ceremonies and traditions incorporated into the day create an opportunity to share more of the couples love story?
Each love story is unique. Incorporating wedding traditions is not only a great way to make your wedding personal, its also a nice tribute to your family – a way to honour and connect both families together.
What three words would you choose to describe the atmosphere and feeling of this wedding day?
Effortless, unique and fun.
