Monica and Caleb decided last minute to elope and be married in Mexico.
I had the pleasure of photographing them when they returned home, before and at their reception with all of their family and friends at Oyster Bay Resorts in Campbell River. What a fun couple, full of laughs, love and amazing times ahead!
Here are a few of my favorite images.
Old Hollywood Wedding.
It is official.
I have that feeling.
That feeling when you just sit still and know... really know... that you are doing exactly what you are supposed to be doing.
My first wedding of 2008 thankfully contained this feeling.
Erinn and Nick were married in an old theatre in Powell River, BC. The bride, stunning. The groom, dashing. The whole thing... fabulously old hollywood. The music, the bridal party fans, the brides wild shoes, the popcorn throwing outside the theatre... The whole day... entertaining, exciting, and wonderfully inspiring.
Erinn and Nick were so amazing to work with, and I'm so grateful that they chose me to capture moments that will never come again. I wish you both, nothing but blue skies.

A Few Good Tears
It’s been a good few years…
With an updated website, a new blog, rejuvenated creative energy and a sunny disposition, I am ready for another exciting wedding season!
I've been doing a lot of thinking, a lot of breathing, and not to mention a lot of living, and I've come up with one thing that I know for sure.
I am grateful, for everything, always.
I feel so lucky to love what I do and have others reciprocate the feeling. I am overwhelmed and in disbelief at the emotional response people have been displaying for my photographs, but it makes me believe, that I'm doing something right...that I'm on the right track. Looking through past client emails, I was shocked by one underlying, and humbling fact...I'M MAKING PEOPLE CRY!
"I feel like crying!" "Almost got a little teary eyed...ok i lied, there were tears!!" "I just wanted to cry!" "You brought tears to my eyes (of course, good tears)" "they almost made me cry just looking at them." "and you actually made me cry!!!"
I'm making people cry?!
Now granted, normally that's not a good thing to do. Nobody wants to be the person to make others cry, we learned that early in life! But good tears, happy tears, I think are much different. Happy tears are ok. I am grateful. Always.
So to open up my shiny new blog (courtesy of the incredible Jeremy Latham, without whom, I'd be unsuccessful - without a website, blog, or even business cards). I'd like to thank you all for visiting, for joining me on my photographic journey, for supporting me, for believing in me and share some of my favourite wedding images from 2007. I look forward to sharing many more from 2008.
