There are not many venues I LOVE quite as much as Dolphins Resort, in Campbell River. I just really love it there.
Love the people. The setting, the atmosphere, ambiance and most importantly the energy of the resort. It's quiet, but fun. Serene, but exciting. Like I said, my favorite.
So, any chance I have to create wedding images there... I am thrilled.
Laurie said "Dolphins" and I said "Absolutely". She was doing ok, composed and calm... but also pacing a bit. Nervously looking at the clock, but still breathing and looking impossibly beautiful. She was doing ok, until her mom came in with glistening tears in her eyes. Then no one was doing ok, including me. So touching, so quiet, so peaceful and so sweet. Kiel was quirky from the moment I saw him, and I knew our time together would be full of fun, laughter and "did I just say that" moments.
It poured rain during the ceremony so it was indoors. No problem. Rain doesn't scare me, so we set out for the beach under umbrellas. No problem. The rain stopped the moment we set foot on the beach and held off for us until I released the shutter for Laurie and Kiels last image together on the dock at Dolphins. I'm not going to go on about luck, but.... that was lucky.
May you both share a beautiful and blessed life together. I'm grateful to be a part of your story. xo
No more words... only images.


Dear Maisie,
You. Are. Joy.
You spread it, you are it... and I just stand back and watch your beautiful light shine.
Shine on girlfriend.

She oozes sweetness.
He is caring and kind.
They gently moved with their day and soaked in all of their moments. Together.
They met 9 years ago to the day. They were married at one of my favorite venues. 
When people ask if I'm crazy busy, I always say. "not really, it's great".
The truth is, it's a bit busy, ok it's busy. But all amazing, feeling inspired, balanced and excited to create.
The blog has been neglected a bit lately, but here is a sneak preview as to why!
A lot of amazing families, a bit of sunshine and a bit of fun times all wrapped into one.
Looking forward to sharing more... soon.

She was composed, calm and serene. "Ready and excited to marry Chris" she said.
He was ready and nervous, being harassed by his groomsmen who were all wishing they had printed their speeches earlier (when they had a printer around).
"I'm going to cry" he said.
