I had the opportunity to photograph the beautiful Kelly Lovatt-Hawkins for the first time back in December 2008. Kelly was the second bride that I’ve ever photographed. She is a multi-talented actress and I had the pleasure in photographing her over the last few years in various musical theatre shows.

About a year ago, Scarborough Music Theatre put on a fundraiser and I, along with a fellow photographer, Rich Burdett, had donated a headshot session as one of the raffle prizes. Kelly was the lucky girl, and I was the lucky guy!

We had a great time shooting these:
