So... I would like to start off by thanking the talented
Bassem for capturing this "action" shot! Contrary to popular belief, I don't really enjoy having my photo taken... I have my very own "Crystalized" angle hahaha... few have found it... many have tried! LOL
Thanks B!
NOW... on to the beautiful, emotional and fun filled day that was Linda & Ryan's Wedding!
I was so very blessed to be Linda's makeup artist for her engagement shoot in the summer and then again for the entire Bridal party for her Wedding day.
It's obvious that Linda is stunning, she really did make my job VERY easy!
Linda is such a sweet and caring woman. Her entire Bridal party were such an example of close and loving family and friends. It was my absolute pleasure to work with all of these beautiful women! A VERY special thank you to Linda's Mom who allowed me to touch her up with blush and lipstick! (I consider this an honour as she does not wear makeup ever!) Thank you!
Once again I was privy to the antics of a bridal party gone wild! lol I spent the day with crazy crew... the relentless rain did not hinder them! Big props once again to the uber talented
Bassem who can ROCK a photo shoot in any weather!!!
Linda and Ryan... I wish you both much love and happiness always!
It was absolutely wonderful getting to know you both.
Big Hugs... Crystal xo

I can't wait for their wedding in December! Not only do I get to prep Amy and her girls for the wedding but I also get to be with them all day!!! So excited!
Stay tuned for photos from their winter wedding!
Kim opted for a very classic bridal look with a little more "oomph" with a warm red lipstick... MY kinda gal!!!
Kim and her sisters each have very different personal styles which makes each of them so stunning!
I absolutely adore Kali's personal style and was so happy that she loved the natural makeup application for her engagement session with Nancy of nbphotos.
As you can tell from the photo below, Kali and Mike are all about fun. I'm so excited be a part of their upcoming Wedding day!
Stay tuned for a slightly more Glam version of Kali for her November wedding!
It's obvious that Linda is stunning, she really did make my job VERY easy!

With Tannis and Kevin, the day was full of jokes and fun. The whole crew was so laid back and easy going that it made for an amazingly wonderful day! Did I mention that Kevin's family is scottish?!?! For those who know me.... kilts and Scottish accents are an absolute fave of mine!!! 
All the best to you both for a wonderful and happy life together!
As you can tell, the bridal party was a hoot! They kept Nancy of nbphotos on her toes and from what I hear.... there was an issue with the boys keeping their pants on?!?! lol
Congratulations Melanie and Jerry... wishing you many years of happiness!
It's always a HUGE bonus when I know the wedding photographer and in this case Shannon had one of my FAVES (and closest friends) Nancy of nbphotos!
I was speechless when I first saw these images of Shannon, they truly encompass the feeling of old Hollywood glamour... not to mention they're killer shots for my portfolio! lol
All the best to Shannon & Chris for a wonderful life together!!!
