A truly magnificent Quadra Island family session.
Beautiful scenery on their amazing property on Quadra Island, beautiful people, incredible family. Great fur friends and a dog named Nootka.
What an incredible group of spirited, unique and fabulous people.
I am so lucky.
With a venue like April Point Resort on a day like August 1 2008… there are not many words that can describe the outcome of Susan and Dave’s wedding day. Nothing makes me happier than big black skies with the sunshine making heroic efforts to burst through the heavy clouds…
My favorite moments, were jumping into a boat with the newly weds, and venturing off into unchartered waters to find the perfect rock, poking out of the sea… I’m pretty sure there has never been a bride and groom standing on that very spot before, and quite honestly… that is magic.
I’m not going to say anything more… I believe their images will do that for me.
From the moment Andrea and I spoke on the phone, I knew we were going to make magic together.
Our shoot was at Rebecca Spit on Quadra Island. Bob pulled up in the most amazing old truck… Mariah came armed with her guitar, and the boys came prepared to be boys!!!
I was so incredibly inspired at the time, overwhelmed with opportunities and moments! I absolutely love that Andrea had so much faith in me and let me run wild with my wild ideas and creative craziness. Some days everything just fits together so perfectly. This was one of those days. I also had an amazing time editing these images, and hope you enjoy them as well.
Mariah is an incredible gal, full of ideas, full of life and awesome with her guitar!
Near the end of our shoot, I knew I had yet to ‘crack’ River into a smile… so I stole him away for a little one on one, which included talk of hockey and tree climbing… and finally, a smile.
I love this image of Andrea and River.
And Sjor with his amazing curls… running through the grass into the sunlight. Perfect.
