Dena and Ryan - Engagement Session

Dena and Ryan are a really sweet couple and I had a lot of fun shooting their session at Granville Island! I love this location because every time I go there I find something new to use as a background - of course, there are always the not-to-be missed spots like down near the water with the city view background - so Vancouver, and so gorgeous! In fact I think the photo posted above of Dena and Ryan is one of my all time favourites, it just has such a great feeling of romance to it. We're looking forward to their big day in August!

Julia and Kevin - Engagement Session

After postponing a couple of times due to less-than-great weather, we finally got a good day for Julia and Kevin's engagement session. It was the perfect kind of light - warm evening sunlight filtered through big moody, clouds - and to top it off, we had the entire beach pretty much to ourselves! Although Kevin and Julia claimed that they were nervous and a little awkward around the camera, they were actually total naturals, and it made my job easy! Just check out the photos and see:

Secret Session Fun!

We had our first Secret Session Marathon on May 3 and it was a great time! These sessions are about having fun and feeling beautiful and judging by the response from the ladies, I think we achieved that! I had makeup artist extraordinaire Tara Lasko from Paint By Numbr on hand creating fabulous looks for each girl. Her makeup skills are truly amazing and if you're getting married and need a great artist, get in touch with Tara! Modeling for a Secret Session is fun but also hard work, so we had refreshments and fancy chocolates to nibble on. We'll have more images from the Secret Sessions soon, but in the meantime we're planning the next Secret Session Marathon for the fall - watch the blog for details!
