C+L Fab Five: Ramona

We were so honoured when fellow photographer Ramona asked us to do a maternity session with her. We wanted to do something a little different and it ended up being a whole lot of fun. Here's our fav five - she's one hot mama!

Annie+Paulo=Happy!

An afternoon of smiles and laughter and super-happilicious images of the delightful Annie + Paulo.

These two so clearly love being in each other's company. And they are on a determined life pursuit of happiness and fun and living-in-the-moment together, a quest that just happens to require glamourous trips to NYC, dining at Vancouver's finest, and lots and lots of shoe shopping (oh yeah, and some regular trips to Beard Pappa's!)!

Here are some of our favs from their e-session. Blue-jean fun on Granville Island.

Annie has the best laugh!



Had to go on a ride on the Little Blue Ferry (the place where Paulo first whispered to Annie "I love you."!).


Nothing wrong with a classic portrait of two gorgeous people happy & in love.

THIS was soooo much fun (and it's making me hungry!). Yay for Beard Papa's!



And nothing wrong with a not-so-classic portrait of two gorgeous people happy and in love! I love this image.



A beautiful moon-lit night.

Congratulations Annie + Paulo! We had the best time with you both & can't wait for your wedding this fall!

We Heart NYC

New York City - it's one of our all time fav places to visit. And to photograph. We're sooo looking forward to our upcoming weddings there this year - we'll get to work with some amazing clients and hang our with our great friend & fellow photographer JasonG (oh yeah, and indulge in some shoe shopping too!)!

It's also the perfect place for a photography seminar. If you're a photographer looking to improve your craft, better your business, and just plain have fun, check out Jason Groupp's new seminar series set in his hometown - the inspirational, incredible, iconic city of New York. Hang with him one-on-one at his studio in Chelsea for a personal workshop to find out how he's become super-successful in the most competitive city in the world or sign up for the his just announced full-day East Meets West workshop with the amazing Gene Higa.

C+L FAB 5: Linda+Scott

We're off to Kelowna for a Okanagan wedding!

Before we go, five of our favourites from Linda + Scott's beautiful Sutton Place wedding.

Congratulations L+S!

Laurie+Warren=Wow!

It all started normally enough - playing in the light in the park, checking out the view of the ocean, hanging out by the seawall.









But then Laurie and Warren's stroll along the beach turned into a roll in the beach. And in the waves! Now we love photographing couples playing in the surf, but that kind of engagement action is normally limited to our destination sessions in tropical climates, not the chilly Pacific Northwest!










But once these two got a little wet...



... they just embraced the moment!







A beautiful evening and a beautiful couple.

Robin+Jerome=Adoration

Ahh...what a perfect day. One of the first sunny Saturdays in Vancouver for Robin & Jerome's big day - and it was a beautiful one! These two are so devoted each other - and their deep and true love for each other shines through in all their images.

First some of Robin's bling bling.



Getting ready. And beautiful.


Finishing touches for Robin.

And Jerome.

A private moment between Robin and her father before they walk down the aisle.



The ring bearer approaches - what a cutie!


"We did it!!"

I love Robin's expression in this one. And that Vancouver backdrop is pretty nice too - no matter where we get to travel, we always love coming home to the mountains.

Robin's brother affectionatley described the bride as "a dorky nerd."
Pretty darn hot nerd, I say :).

And Jerome's pretty easy on the eyes too.






Love the pink and purple colour scheme.

Robin's brother delivering a heartfelt, hilarious (and most daring!) speech ever.

Traditional Chinese shenanigans.



Bride and groom cakes - and an eager photographer (hey, I think I recognize that fabulous couple!)



Jerome putting on the moves during the couple's first dance.



Congratulations you two - hope you're enjoying Bali!!
