Zelita and Nigel June 5th, 2010 | Vancouver Wedding Photography

With the entire globe caught up in World Cup FIFA madness it’s the perfect time to write about Zelita and Nigel. They met two years ago while working at Electronic Arts in Vancouver where they were both working on the 2010 FIFA World Cup Game, how cool is that! There were a few tense moments throughout the reception with banter over who was the better team England or Portugal (personally I think it’s Italy) but in the end Nigel lost out and was handed a Portugal Jersey. We were so lucky that the sun was shining in Vancouver on this particular day as we covered a lot of ground photographing  the wedding, we started in Burnaby then headed off to east Vancouver to Our Lady of Fatima Portuguese Parish for the ceremony and finally Gastown, Deer Lake and the beautiful Nekkei centre for the reception. A special thanks to Kari from Fractured Light for helping me out on this one we had an excellent day with an amazing group of people.
