Port Coquitlam Baby Photography | Baby Soham, zombie slayer in training

Baby Soham, catching some Z's between chapters of Zombie Survival Guide

The photo fiesta continues as the summer gigs roll through post. On this cold, rainy Toronto evening, home on the couch editing with a G&T in hand is feeling pretty good. Does that count as drinking on the job? Anyway, on to the new family photos!

Ok, so on this last trip home to B.C. I was pumped to get calls from two of my favourite colleagues-turned-clients, right out of the blue. Coincidence, the universe… not sure, but it was awesome to reconnect. One of those re-connections was with a former CBC Vancouver friend, Anu. We’d worked the television newsroom together, as well as the then fledgling web department – back to my intern days actually - so it was a blast to touch base again after a few years. Some big changes, not the least of which being the addition of Soham, Anu’s new baby boy!

The little guy is only six weeks old and already has a tonne of personality. It was a pleasure hanging out and shooting with the fam, in between talking shop!

Thanks a tonne for inviting me over guys, it was a blast. Now, the photos.

Grouse Mountain Wedding Photography | Paul+Chuck’s Vancouver wedding

Posted in Client Photos Tags: grouse mountain, Vancouver, wedding

Paul and Chuck outside the Hyatt in Coal Harbour

I recently had the pleasure of photographing Paul and Chuck’s wedding on a beauty of a Vancouver day. The couple couldn’t have picked better venues either. We got the ball rolling at the Hyatt Regency in Coal Harbour for some family and wedding party shots, then rolled into the ceremony and reception dinner atop Grouse Mountain. It was a classic day as the sun dipped towards the horizon over Georgia Straight, bathing the ceremony – held on the Observatory restaurant deck – in golden light. Perfect. Congratulations to the newly weds!

More from me on the wedding, including some lighting challenges and how we over came them to come. For now, a sneak peek at some of the shots from the day. Enjoy!

Vancouver Beach Wedding | Kristy+Shane’s Spanish Banks ceremony

Posted in Client Photos Tags: beach wedding, funky wedding photo, wedding

Newly wed Kristy+Shane rocking it on Spanish Banks

Its been an epic couple of months with multiple trips between Toronto, Vancouver and points in between, but I’m finally getting a handle on the season’s edits. And that means, its back to the much neglected blog!

This post goes way back to June (so sorry for the wait guys!) and an amazing day we had with Kristy+Shane on a drizzly Spanish Banks. Ok, lets be straight up, it was dumping at times, but the couple and their guests – many of whom we recognized from Kristi+Geoff’s Coal Harbour wedding last year - were champions and embraced the weather with brollys in hand. It was a blast to shoot with such cool people at one of my favourite spots, especially since I’d just escaped some nasty humidity in Toronto the night before. I for one, was stoked to be back on the coast for a classic Vancouver day at the beach!

Big thanks to Angela Stearns for throwing the wellys on and risking her gear with me!

And now, some photos from the day…

Thanks for stopping by,

West End Vancouver Wedding Photography | Doug + Sarah

Posted in Client Photos Tags: stanley park, vancouver canucks, wedding

Doug and Sarah, die-hard Canucks fans on their wedding day.

I recently had the profound fortune to travel back home to Vancouver from Toronto to photograph Doug + Sarah’s West End wedding. Fortunate in that one, Doug is my ~~oldest friend~~… wait, the friend that I’ve had the longest! And two, as a ‘coastie’ newly transplanted to the 416, Toronto’s humidity was straight up driving me crazy.

On top of that, the wedding was in the middle of the Vancouver Canucks playoffs run and the city (not to mention the bride, groom and most of the wedding party) was buzzing with Olympic-esque energy. Needless to say I was stoked to be home and in truly good company.

Now, we all know how the Canucks’ run ended so no need to get in to that – they played well, lost to a more deserving team and will be back in force next year -’nuf said.

Now to the wedding… We started at Sarah’s father’s home in Dunbar where my amazing second, Angela Stearns hung out with the girls to shoot the hair + makeup. I headed down to Doug’s brother’s in the Davie Village to get the guys suiting + booting. We all converged at Immaculate Conception Church on W. 28th (just a short jaunt for the ladies) for the ceremony. From there, it was on to Stanley Park and the Vancouver Rowing Club for the reception, and family and wedding party photos.

It was a beautiful, sunny Vancouver day and an amazing opportunity to reconnect with an old friend (and now a fellow journalist). If you’re in the Kelowna area, listen for Doug on the radio!

Ok, time to let the pictures do the talking. Doug, Sarah, thanks again for a great day.
