Debbie & Darcy – Vancouver Wedding Photography

elaine — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 03:17:36 +0000

There are nothing but good things to say about Debbie & Darcy’s wedding. There was sunshine, love & laughter, a beautiful bride & handsome groom, and most of all, family. Debbie’s wedding was particularly special for me because she is my cousin! It was definitely fun, and an honor to be a part of her and Darcy’s day.

I love how excited Debbie looks here, waiting to walk down the aisle.

Her Bridesmaids looked stunning.

Debbie, of course, looked absolutely radiant.

Don’t they make such a beautiful couple? You can definitely see the love.

Debbie & Darcy chose a green & blue Canucks colour theme for their reception! How fun is that? Each table was named after a Canucks player.

The reception was full of laughs – thanks to Debbie’s brother, Darren, who was a fabulous MC!

A beautiful first dance as husband and wife. Doesn’t the Langley Golf Centre make for a gorgeous venue? Love the chandeliers!

Lastly, a few shots of Debbie & Darcy’s friends and family, you can definitely tell they are loved very much!!

Thank you for letting me be such an important part of your day!

Grapefruit Juice, and Gina & Dave’s Engagement photos! – Vancouver Engagement Photography

elaine — Fri, 25 Jun 2010 01:53:33 +0000

I have decided that grapefruit juice is essential to my photo editing from now on. Not the pure unsweetened kind…no one reeeally actually likes that stuff. No, the kind with delicious pear, apple and orange juice infused into it. I am on to my third glass, and what has resulted? …

Gina & Dave’s Engagement photos!

Gina and Dave are awesome. They are hilarious. There was lots of funny face making, which resulted in a lot of laughter!
We had our session at Iona beach on a windy evening last week, it was so beautiful. Iona beach is such an interesting place. It’s not your typical beach, like the others in Vancouver. It’s sort of…barren. In a beautiful way.

Our evening started out like this:

Then I made them climb all over the drift wood…

which then lead to these beautiful photos…

They also brought their super adventurous dog, Toby, who was so adventurous that he jumped right into the 6 inch deep slimy, muddy, goop on the beach where the tide had gone out, about 10 minutes into our session. Needless to say, his muddiness limited the amount of pictures with Gina & Dave =p

It was awesome shooting with Gina & Dave, and I can’t wait to shoot their wedding at the Hart House this Saturday. Yes…this Saturday. 2 days of photos in just over 1 week!

Emerald City

elaine — Sun, 23 May 2010 01:05:41 +0000

My friend Jules and I are both maids of honour for our friend Sam’s (from the previous post) wedding coming up in a couple weeks, and we decided it would be a fantastic idea to go on trip together before the big day! Seattle is cheaper than Vegas, and more exciting than staying home…so…seattle it was!

It was a mix of shopping, cocktails, sight-seeing, walking, laughing, eating delicious food, taking hilarious video, buying too many shoes & buying cheap wine from the gas station across from the hotel (mmm).

I didn’t take many photos, I put Sam in charge of that. But here are the few that I took. I did however take lots of video, which you can see on the facebook page soon!

Sam & Kelsey – You & Me Session – Vancouver Portrait Photography

elaine — Wed, 12 May 2010 03:15:59 +0000

Kelsey is an auto mechanic, Sam is a baker. Sam and Kelsey met while both of them were attending school for automotive mechanics. Yes, Sam went to school for automotive – she is Bad Ass.
Being the only girl in class, Sam was bound to fall for one of the guys, and thank GOD it was Kelsey! The two of them compliment eachother perfectly, I couldn’t imagine a better match.

I’ve known Sam since we were small children. We went through elementary & highschool together, she moved to Nanaimo for school, met Kelsey, fell in love, and now she’s back in Vancouver and she’s getting married! In FOUR WEEKS!

We decided there couldn’t be a better excuse to take awesome pictures of her and Kelsey than an upcoming wedding, so we set aside an afternoon and had a blast.

Sam and Kelsey’s wedding photographers, Jason and Lena from Jaylena Photography, will be taking some awesome photos of Sam & Kelsey, and the wedding party (including 2 maids of honour, one of which is me!!) on June 5th! They also took some amazing engagement photos a couple weeks ago of the couple which are on their blog!

Here are some photos of our couples session.

You two look amazing!

You two are going to have a beautiful wedding, and I can’t wait to share it with you!

Dan & Sarah – You & Me Session – Vancouver Portrait Photography

elaine — Thu, 29 Apr 2010 17:49:13 +0000

Sarah wanted photos done, Dan, my brother…not so much. But after about 10 or 15 minutes he was definitely more into it! How could you not be when you are standing beside this gorgeous girl!!

This park is a place pretty near and dear to my brother and I, since we grew up coming here sometimes a few times a week watching birds, catching snakes, and other things children do…I went for a walk there about a week before this session and thought it would be perfect especially since all the dandelions and bluebells were covering the field. The tree in the background is probably my favourite tree ever…I used this tree for this shoot about a year ago.

You two look awesome (thank you for putting up with me Daniel =p )

A sneak peek & dreaming up my own home improvement projects

elaine — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 23:17:54 +0000

Not feeling so fantastic today so I’m spending the day in front of the TV watching wedding shows in between home improvement/house hunting shows, and editing photos from the last two couples sessions, not too bad for a sick day, eh?

Here’s a little look at a session with my brother, Dan, and his absolutely beautiful girlfriend, Sarah.

I have some more from this session to show, and another session from Thursday that i’m working on now that I can’t wait to share! Please check back =)
