Wedding Photographer Vancouver - The Wink Photography Blog

I was recently asked to do a bunch of new headshots for the home stagers/ designers at Dekora Staging. Like many companies these days they agreed it was time to get out of the studio and do some relaxed natural light portraits. We managed to get through all the employees is under 4 hours, and have a great time doing it. If your company is in need of freshening up their look…I highly recommend not only putting a face to the company with some fun portraits, but getting out of the suits and studios.

Wow…This post is long overdue. Sarah & Rob ’s wedding was the last one I shot before my “mat leave” (which in the self employed world just means ‘too pregnant to keep shooting’). I’ve been jumping all over the place with blog posts lately, but it’s time to get back on track chronologically with Sarah & Rob.

These two are SO much fun, and not surprisingly their friends and family were too. Sarah put so much work into making this day reflect who they are, and it showed. From the birdcage veil (yay!) to the Art Deco fonts and carefully restored vintage cake topper, no detail was overlooked.

Each of the guys had cufflinks specific to their personalities, and gorgeous hand-screenprinted ties. (I was even inspired to order one for David)

My favourite way to get over nervousness about being photographed? Gotta laugh it out.

What a beautifully designed/worded ceremony program.

I absolutely love the flabbergasted “We’re actually married now!” look that often ensues.

Time for a few more “formals”.

What a fun day. From the looks of it, your guests would agree too:

There’s something so exciting about having the opportunity to shoot the evolution of a family, from engagement to wedding to baby. And in this particular situation it’s even more special because it’s my sister’s family. I couldn’t possibly love my little nephew any more, and I know that being able to follow their great lead will make me that much better as a parent myself.

We took a little walk around Rocky Point in Port Moody for a nice relaxed session.

I just can’t believe this little face.

This kid knows my camera so well now, it’s been in his face since the day he was born.

This one’s going on my wall. Makes me smile every time I look at it.

Starting to get the hang of this whole “walking” thing.

Loryne & Josh, like most people new to being in front of the camera, were nervous about the engagement shoot when we discussed it at our first meeting. But on the day, they showed up dressed to kill with the attitudes of supermodels. We were able to have a great time with the session, which is always my main goalbecause these shoots should never feel like work.

As a result, this post may be a little photo heavy. I just couldn’t stop myself.

What a great day! Have I mentioned I love what I do?

Eden and Jeff are a super cool couple who definitely make my job feel like anything but work. Their wedding day was relaxed, fun, and completely them.

You can also re-live the E-session antics here.

Eden and her mom wore matching bracelets.

A little pre-ceremony mingling

This sneaky bride doesn’t want to miss a thing.

Wedding tip: If formality isn’t for you, don’t force it. Greeting your groomsmen with a high five during the ceremony may be more your style.

I know I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again….I love this look on a groom’s face.

Outtake? No way!

Congratulations, you two!
