Erika and Mark - Granville Island Engagement Session

Erika contacted me a few weeks back about doing an engagement session for her and her fiancé Mark. They are getting married in Mexico next year and wanted a very Vancouver feel to their engagement photos. So on a sunny Sunday afternoon we met up with them at Granville Island, a perfect spot for that Vancouver feel! As we started taking photos we were chatting about how her and Mark met at work, funny enough the same place my husband use to work years ago. Then our worlds got a little smaller, Erika studied Biotech at BCIT and my dad was one of her teachers!

We did a full lap of Granville Island finding little nooks to take some amazing photos for them. We loved getting to know them and their love story and we are so happy that we were able to capture this special moment in their lives!

Laura and Steven - Buntzen Lake Engagement Session

Tomorrow is Laura and Steven’s wedding day and we couldn’t be more excited!! I remember back to meeting up with Laura and Steven at Starbucks to talk about their big day, and I knew from that meeting that I really wanted to be their wedding photographer. We sat and talked for almost 2 hours, and it truly felt like I was sitting down with a long-time friend catching up on all the things that had happened over the past few months. I was so excited when she emailed me back and told me that they wanted me to be their wedding photographer!

A week later we met up again on a stormy August day to go through the contract and set up all the details. That was the day of the crazy August 2015 storm which knocked out power to some parts of the Lower Mainland for days! Little did we know at that time that their venue, Redwoods Golf Course, was pulling out all the stops to make sure that the weddings on that stormy weekend went on without a hitch.

Fast forward to May 2016, and we were all set to do their engagement session at Buntzen Lake. It was a beautiful day. Bright and sunny, but not too warm. Laura had mentioned to me a few days before their session how much she wanted to incorporate a vintage couch into their photos. And luckily enough, my husband and I took an upholstery course at The Passionate Home in Langley that past winter and I had just finished refinishing and upholstering a love seat. So we packed the couch up and headed out to the Lake!

It was quite the site to see me walking about with a love seat hoisted above my head, but it was totally worth it! We got to hear a lot about all the amazing details that they were putting into their big day, making us even more excited to be part of their wedding!

So here we are today, less than 24 hours until they are husband and wife. We are so excited to be back at Redwoods Golf Course celebrating amongst Laura and Steven’s Family and Friends!
