Angela & Trevor – Downtown Engagement Session

Angela & Trevor are the perfect blend of sweetness and silliness.

We spent the afternoon downtown just steps from their apartment and did a lot of laughing and cuddling. (Well, they did the cuddling part).

I should mention that Trevor is a total Coke addict. Coca-Cola, that is. So much so that it wasn’t clear whether he just wanted to bring props, or whether he didn’t think he’d make it through the session without a caffeine jolt. In a later post you will find this drink features prominently at their wedding as well.

A little down time

I just wanted to let everyone know that we’re currently taking some time off to stay with David’s family in Collingwood, Ontario. After a very busy year (in both photography and family life!) we decided this would be a great opportunity to have some down time and just enjoy our new little family. Quinn turned 6 months old this week and I still can’t wrap my head around how that happened so fast.

We’ll be away until the 25th of November, but since I’m unable to be more than 5 feet from my iphone at any given moment I’ll still be replying to email.

Here’s the little one enjoying country life (quite glamourously, might I add!)

Nicole & Jason’s Photobooth Fun

October 17th, 2010

Tweet These two went all out on the details for their big day (even providing the damask backdrop to match their table runners) and wanted to make sure their guests were entertained while we were out on the town doing portraits after the ceremony. It’s amazing what your friends and family will do after a [...]

 

These two went all out on the details for their big day (even providing the damask backdrop to match their table runners) and wanted to make sure their guests were entertained while we were out on the town doing portraits after the ceremony.

It’s amazing what your friends and family will do after a couple glasses of wine.

And perhaps with some rubber cleavers/plastic cleavage. (courtesy of the bride & groom)

Anna & Rob – Maternity Teaser

I very rarely am able to shoot a session and blog it in the same day, but these are special circumstances, and I wanted to get just a few photos up right away.

Anna & Rob’s maternity shoot was scheduled for this Thursday, until I got word that Anna’s contractions had been 8 minutes apart for over 24 hours already. So we decided to just get out and do it before it’s too late. We spent 2 hours wandering false creek through the labour pains and Anna never even complained once.

These are two of the sweetest people you could ever meet, and I can’t wait to see them as parents. My thoughts are with them tonight as Anna paces the apartment in pain and Rob works his magic with the foot rubs.

Looking at these photos you would never believe that this calm woman is in early labour.

Louisa & Chris – Jericho Beach Engagement

September 4th, 2010

I really can not say enough good things about Louisa & Chris.

Sometimes I go to those perfect 1st meetings where an hour flies by and we realize we haven’t even really talked about photography yet. That was my first meeting with Louisa & Chris. We clicked right away and I knew from the start that this was a wedding I wanted to be involved in. And since we first met last winter, Louisa has become one of my biggest cheerleaders and regular blog followers. Being a self-employed artist as well, she knows how much it means to have people truly appreciate your work. So visit her etsy store at www.etsy.com/shop/lulidesigns to appreciate some of HER gorgeous work.

These two have a serious love for frisbee golf (so much so that it’s where Chris proposed!)  and decided to incorporate that into their session. Love it!

I love the love in this photo. This is not a pose I would ever ask people to do, but it’s one of those in between moments that I feel lucky to capture.

Then we decided to pop over to Jericho for a moody Vancouver beach day.

These two are truly best friends in love, the kind of couple that reminds me why I love my job.
