This year (and always) I have been blessed with the most amazing brides. Seriously. This amazing soul has been dreaming of her wedding since Grade 9. Every detail was so carefully thought out. Not painfully... but lovingly. Truly. Not only that but Mandy and Brad both... just oozed happiness and joy. That kind of wedding, that kind of love... really gets me excited to be a wedding photographer. Not only that, but this wedding was held at Gowlland Harbour Resort on Quadra Island and for any of you who don't have the pleasure of knowing Carmen.... she is the mastermind and powerhouse creative wedding magic maker behind making this all come together so flawlessly. This wedding was last night, (and no, I didn't really sleep last night) but I just wanted to share some of what I saw as their wedding highlights (I haven't even looked through all of their images yet) but I just HAVE to share. xo
Much love and thank you beyond words to Mandy and Brad, for choosing me. xo I am the lucky one.
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.
Sorry, but makeup alone, doesn't make you this pretty.
I told you, radiant. Relaxed. Excited.
Cool. Collected and Calm.
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.
Their beautiful ceremony at 
So happy. So handsome!
An excited congratulations from Grandma.
Brothers and Sisters and laughter. A wildly beautiful combination.
Love this series
You can't make images like this, without a lot of love. Impossible.
May the world shower nothing but blessings on you both, always.
