dan + angie {gastown engagement photography}


This session didn't exactly go as planned. The plan was to meet up with Dan + Angie, and Chloe at Stanley Park for their engagement photos. Being one of the first really sunny Sundays of the summer made this trickier than we expected. After trouble with parking, frequent cell phone check-ins and more than one loop around the park, Dan + Angie decided to move their location to nearby Gastown. I'm so glad they did. Stanley Park is a stunning, diverse location and I have enjoyed shooting there; however, there is just something about urban settings lately that make me so happy. I've always told clients in our emails "find me an open field, and I'm a happy girl." I think I should change that to, "find me an open field or a back alley...."I suppose as we grow in who we are and doing what we love, we change and expand.
Anyways, enough about that. Angie + I had our intital consult for wedding photography on the phone, so this was our first time meeting in person. I loved them. You'll see, so easily from their photos, that they are experts in making the other smile. They make love look so good! And Chloe...the doggy. Once again, I profess to be a cat person in general, but Chloe...I actually liked Chloe!!! And she was so good; posing for a few shots, and then hanging out off to the side to let the humans take the spotlight!
Dan + Angie ~ I'm so thrilled to be your wedding photographer! Thank you for being flexible, having fun, and dreaming big for your wedding day. So excited to join you as you start your grand adventure...

kyle, sharon + raya {fort langley family photographer}


This was one of those sessions that just made me love my job. The weather was perfect, the light was perfect, the baby was an angel, and Sharon was wearing yellow (a favourite of mine)! We had a great afternoon trudging around Fort Langley, chatting about baby girls and laughing at Miss Raya's antics. For some reason, this sweet gal did not want her right leg to touch the grass. You'll see photo evidence of her adorable one leg in the air sitting position. I also have to say a big thank you to Shirley Rempel of Country Lane Antiques for letting us borrow the adorable vintage tricycle that you see in this post. I was fortunate enough to photograph her son's wedding last year and she was so sweet in helping us out at this session. Miss Raya loved that bike and I'm pretty sure her grandparents might need to make a visit to the antique store before her birthday next month!
