Quadra Island at its best Bright, wise, and full of life. Was my initial reaction upon meeting Katie and her family on Saturday at their wonderful (built and designed by dads hands) home on Quadra Island. From the moment I stepped onto their property, I understood what made them all so unique. They are inspired, passionate and adventurous. A marvelous combination. From the unique wedding dress, to the art work that covers their house, to the giant happy fun family photos on the walls or the authentically Mexican themed bathroom ... I knew, their Quadra Island wedding would be amazing.

Katie, was radiant. Relaxed. Excited. Brandon, was cool. Collected. Calm. Together, these two make wedding photography the most incredibly rewarding experience. Again, real moments= real magic.

Katie and Brandon...I told you on Saturday, but will let you know again... you both are pure magic.

Below Katie's sisters contemplate her makeup... it got hilarious, when they realized they could quickly turn into the 'evil sister's role... sisters Sorry, but makeup alone, doesn't make you this pretty. Katie I told you, radiant. Relaxed. Excited. happy perfume so darn pretty amazing Cool. Collected and Calm. Groom Again, I'm not a huge ring shot fan... but Katie's aunties artwork, makes for an incredible setting for their beautifully simply gold bands. rings Their beautiful ceremony at Luna Vista Bed and Breakfast, overlooking the stunning Rebecca Spit. so wonderful So happy.

A wildly beautiful combination. a buncha happy people twirl Love this series love looks lovely along a log a painting You can't make images like this, without a lot of love. Impossible. kiss perfect day sweetness May the world shower nothing but blessings on you both, always. stunning

Heather chose a rather dramatic entrance to her 08-08-08 wedding!!! The crowd cheered as they figured out that the bride was coming out of the noisy helicopter that had hovered overhead... such a blast! I couldn't have hoped for a more wonderful couple to share such a magic day with. In fact, it was the same magic day that my fella and I got an accepted offer on an amazing new home...(more to come when/if deal is solidified....)

Heather is just.... soooo....... lovely. She is a beautifully scripted open book... her heart waving around on her sleeve.... her face, hides nothing. You can see her, standing calm... and then its as if you can actually see her thoughts, as her face changes into a fabulously massive smile explosion... her eyes light up, her arms start shaking, and she is making happy little squeeks. Heather is someone you want to be around. I hadn't met Dan before, and loved that when I arrived over at April Point, for their soulful ceremony Dan stood smiling, waving me over when he caught sight of the over sized cameras. Dan is full of joy.

Everything was wonderful. After the ceremony we snuck off to create some images at Rebecca Spit, on the back side of Quadra Island. Check out the beautiful details of Heathers "Ophelia" dress. What a fabulous couple. What an incredible day.... I'm honored to have been chosen to be there with you two! May you always have all things magic.
