nicole & martin’s yaletown esession

In the weeks leading up to this e-session, Martin had scoped out several places for their shoot and eventually selected Yaletown’s David Lam Park and surrounding areas.  What a great choice — with a wide range of interesting textures and colors, it was the perfect location to backdrop this great couple!

With such a relaxing location, it was a perfect time and place to catch up and discuss their wedding plans while, at the same time, I was getting some great photos of them!

As the sun began to set, I got a beautiful shot of a couple in love…

Congrats, guys!  Looking forward to your wedding in 2011!

joy & jon esession

Joy and Jon are a such a cute couple that I had the pleasure of shooting at the Lynde Shores Conservation Area at Whitby, Ontario.  I, of course, was in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA, to the locals) to shoot their wedding the very next day — yes, the next day!  As you will see, they don’t look the least bit stressed!

They were so great to work with, and their relaxed demeanor made for some great photos.  Here are a few that I want to share with you all:

I’ll leave you with this final set of images that I’ll call “stretching exercises” for the full day of smiling that happened the next day

angeli & shaun engagement

Angeli and Shaun are a fun couple whose wedding is coming up in January 2010. I’m looking forward to shooting their wedding because they have quite an interesting theme. I won’t give it away now, of course, but I can tell you that you won’t want to miss seeing their photos come January!

I shot their engagement session earlier this year, but for some reason, I wasn’t able to blog it right away, but I wanted to share these photos with you all!   While most of this shoot was done in Gastown, we just had to get some shots with Shaun’s pocket rocket because, Shaun loves motorbikes, and, of course, Angeli!

This one’s my personal favorite.  It feels almost like a scene from Gone with the Wind!

lisa & al weddingagement

It was a pleasure shooting Lisa & Al…  They are such a relaxed couple, both in front of the camera, and in person — and, boy, are they in love!  If they weren’t laughing, they were being sweet with each other!  Their engagement session was shot in a fairly cool morning in March and they had their beautiful wedding on June 13.  Congratulations, you two!

…and now for some images from their wedding!

Lisa texting her fiance (for a few more hours) on her iPhone

The very kind folks at the Vancouver Fire Department Firehall #5 were kind enough to actually drive this firetruck out of their garage just for us!!!  How cool is that?!  Thanks so much, you guys!

See?  I told you they were really sweet!

What an awesome ring.  Al feels the need — the need for speed!  Nice touch with the carbon fibre on his ring (his hood is made out of carbon fibre too!)
