Hailey and Kyle sharing a kiss beside the rocks at the water’s edge

A Gowlland Harbour wedding · Quadra Island · 2026

Hailey and Kyle

Their story

Heartfelt, emotional and deeply personal.

Loved every single thing about this colourful, special celebration that was oozing love at every turn and made me tear up repeatedly.

I can still see this magical bride dancing to Butterfly Season as she was tucked away in the trees getting ready to walk down and marry her guy.

The gale force winds kept this soirée indoors but despite the breeze the wedding was meaningful, beautiful and memorable.

Congrats Hailey and Kyle. I’m so honoured to be your chosen one.

In their words

“I wanted Erin to be my wedding photographer long before I was even engaged—she was my absolute non-negotiable! So when it came time to choose who would capture our wedding day, there was never any doubt. And am I ever glad we chose her!”

“Erin captured every bit of emotion throughout our day, all while laughing and crying right alongside us. It’s so clear that this is more than just a job for her; it’s truly her passion, and it shines through in every photo. She helped calm our nerves when we needed it, held all the little things you don’t even think about (veil weights?! Who knew those were even a thing?!), and kept us laughing while capturing the love, emotions, and special moments with our family.

I honestly couldn’t imagine anyone else capturing our day. Erin is so much more than a photographer—she’s a calming presence, a genuine gem, and someone who truly cares about the people and moments she captures. I would hire her a thousand times over and recommend her to absolutely anyone looking for someone to capture their most special moments.”
