Hi there! I’m Jana.
Choosing a photographer is one of the most important decisions when planning your wedding. You want to make sure you’re choosing a photographer whose work you connect with, but just as importantly, whose personality you connect with. I know it’s not easy to get a good feel for who somebody is through a website, but hopefully through reading about my experiences and my stories, you can get a peek into my life. I hope that with this blog I can give brides & grooms, their friends and family, and everyone out there a better idea of who I am and what I love to do.
Wedding photography is my passion. It’s my dream job, and I love what I do. I do, after all, get to spend most of my weekends celebrating with gorgeous, glowing people on one of the biggest days of their lives. I like to think that that passion shows through my work, and in the relationships we form. I believe in creating fun, fresh and honest images filled with emotion that tell the true story of your wedding day. Send me an email at jana@winkphotography.ca to tell me more about yourself and what you’re looking for. I can’t wait to hear more about your big day!
Interaction is welcome, so please don’t be shy! I hope to hear from you. Happy perusing!
Nicole & Jason | Steveston Engagement SessionJanuary 25th, 2012Nicole & Jason are pure awesome.

I’m behind in posting this session, so their wedding images will be soon to follow.
But in the meantime, this was their lovely little engagement session in Steveston.
Old shipyard and perfect golden light? My idea of heaven! (yes, i’m a total dork)
And just enough time to squeeze in a little Canucks tribute at the end…

Melissa & Duane EngagementMarch 21st, 2011Melissa & Duane requested their engagement session be shot at Belcarra Park in Coquitlam because it’s very special to them….it’s where Duane proposed. It’s so fun to visit a place that brings back such strong feelings for a couple, because the emotion is all real. They are a couple of the sweetest people I’ve ever [...] |

They are a couple of the sweetest people I’ve ever had the pleasure to meet. What a fun, relaxed session we had. The best part is they managed to carry the same fun, relaxed attitude right through the wedding day…which is no small feat! (Wedding photos to come soon!)

One of my first weddings almost 4 years ago (long before I started blogging) was Jessika & Byron’s. 
Through Jessika & Byron’s wedding I met Sandy & Trevor. Through Sandy & Trevor’s wedding I met Adrienne & Scott. And now through Adrienne & Scott’s wedding I’ve met Joanne & Chris. I am a lucky girl.
Like the rest of the people I’ve worked with in this chain, these two are unbelievably sweet and kind people. So sweet that Chris even ran a very long way back to the car after this shoot to bring my little Quinn a very thoughtful (& stylish!) baby gift. If this is the caring they show people they’ve recently met, their family and close friends must be very lucky people.
What I love about this session – beyond the sultriness they both pull off so effortlessly – is their quiet loving glances and movements. Chris is an expert nuzzler (big points in my books!)….and it appears to have come from plenty of practice.
These two are now married….those photos to come in the next few weeks!
Angela & Trevor – Downtown Engagement SessionNovember 17th, 2010Angela & 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 [...] |

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.
