These are the emails I received from the same address. I wouldn't travel anywhere to do a wedding without first meeting people. I didn't realize that this was a scam, but I did call my brother and ask him if he was playing a practical joke on me.

This guy keeps answering the email.. what is he getting out of doing this? I'm really glad someone posted this on a forum, otherwise how would you know?

Hi Peter,

I still think you need to be looking for a photographer from British Columbia. I’d have to fly there from Newfoundland and that alone would be very expensive.

Hi Peter,

I’m actually located in Newfoundland, Canada. You probably are looking for a photographer a little closer to where you are getting married? I’m literally on the other side of Canada from BC.
