It’s mid October in Vancouver and the weather is, of course, unpredictable! A few weeks ago Danielle & Peter and I decided to try their Engagement session. That whole week was gorgeous – the day we scheduled for – pissing rain! What a let down…

So we re-scheduled for someday in the next week that was nice out! You gotta do it this way in Vancouver, especially in the fall. It was made much easier as they only live a few blocks from me & we were doing the session in our ‘hood.

So the first sunny day this week, we quickly said “Yep, today is the day!”

We met in the evening and spent well over an hour walking around our area.

The session was a blast! Even though it started out with me getting tangled up in a VERY prickly bush of some kind…these little pokey things stuck to my pants like Velcro and took me about 20 minutes to pull all of them off!

We started near the river, walked the boardwalk, stopped on the train tracks, and then incorporated Pete’s bike (motorcyle, not bicycle) into the end of the session.

These two are so awesome, outgoing & ridiculously photogenic!! Their wedding is going to be FUN-tastic!

Enjoy your sneak peek below! And for good measure – GO CANUCKS GO! (Pete is a fellow Canucks fan)

This past weekend I had the pleasure of meeting up with 2 of the coolest people I am fortunate enough to photograph this year! They’re getting married in September at the beautiful Barkley Brook Gardens in Fort Langley & I’m really looking forward to working there as they have beautifully landscaped grounds.

After they graciously changed their session date to allow me to have this coming weekend away; we met early Saturday morning at Fort Langley Historic Fort Site and started our 2 hour session together. Thanks again guys for doing that for me – I’ll be sure to have a GREAT time in Kelowna over the weekend!

We ventured from the Fort down along Mavis Street, making a few stops along the way as well as making a stop at Everybody Loves Candy Shoppe at the corner of Mavis & Glover – seriously go there & check it out. They have tonnes of stuff and they even have Organic/Natural treats too (I was rather delighted about that!) Ok I’m getting off topic here..back to the session.

We tried out some new ideas I had & just had fun with it.

Jaclyn mentioned that Chad’s measure of a good photographer is how much balancing, climbing & laying on the ground they do…even though you can’t tell in this Sneak Peek, I was up, down, all around for the entire session and I was a tad sore later that day I’ll be sure to pull out all the stops for the wedding as well.

Here are a few of my favorites so far! Enjoy your Sneak Peek.

Earlier this afternoon I met up with these 2 to do their E-Session. We got super lucky with the weather & it turned into a super sunny & hot afternoon for us!

We used Fort Langley as our backdrop for the session & had a blast with it.

This session was one of the most fun I’ve had on a session in awhile – thanks to their totally outgoing personalities! You guys rocked the session!!

We spent the last hour just goofing around & trying out some silly ideas that all turned out to produce some amazing shots & they’re hilarious too :p

When we got about half way through the session I had to stop & ask if he has ever been told he looks exactly like Sidney Crosby LOL…apparently he gets double takes quite often & especially when he’s playing hockey with his Pittsburgh Crosby shirt on! Are you sure you’re not related to him?? hehe We definitely had a good laugh about that for the rest of the session! So, if you’re asking yourself “Did she photograph Sidney Crosby?”…NO unfortunately not today just his long lost twin (I’m convinced)!

Tanya & Sidney…err I mean Dave – thanks for a great session & I can’t wait for the wedding!! It’s gonna be a blast up at the lodge!

Here are a few that I liked immediately but as I browse more thoroughly through the photos…they’re all amazing & can’t wait to show you them!

ENJOY!!

PS – Here’s one for you Tanya! DANG I’m short!

J&D met me at Sunset Beach on Sunday as well – I had 2 sessions there that day!

We ventured around the area as well but in the opposite direction & got some more great images for their Engagement.

Here are a few of my favs!

Enjoy!!

On Sunday I met up with J&B for their Engagement session. We finally had some clear weather for the session & were able to wander around the Sunset Beach area downtown & snap some great photographs!

They’ll be getting married in July at UBC & I can’t wait to photograph that!! I’m sure it’ll be a beautiful wedding in the Rose Garden.

Here are some of my favorites – Enjoy!

Early this morning I met with R&R at White Rock Beach! Although it was windy & cold and we got rained on a little we still had a great session.

We wandered around the area for about an hour & got some great shots of them. They were so easy to photograph & she is extremely photogenic!

Here are my favorites, so far anyways!

Enjoy!

Last weekend I met up with L&J at Granville Island. We had great weather for our entire session! We strolled around Granville Island & snapped some very natural & fun photographs.

They were incredibly easy to work with & they were completely natural with the camera…I let them do their thing & just do photographs – it was a lot of fun.

I can’t wait for the wedding in August! I’m especially excited to do some fantastic photographs at the reception venue – it’s gonna be stunning!

It was really hard to pick only a few for the sneak peek…they’re all so natural & exude so much love!

Enjoy!

This morning prior to the rain starting I met up with Sara & Brandon to shoot their Engagement Session!

We met at the Campbell Valley Park in Langley & spent the hour around the park.

Even though it was super windy & pretty chilly they were more than willing to take off their coats for some photographs & they even changed into shorts for some great sports captures!

They were a lot of fun to photograph & I can’t wait for their wedding in August – it’s gonna be a GT

Here’s your Sneak Peek – Enjoy!!
