Nicole+Brian=Style



A fun, urban couple, Nicole and Brian were a joy to photograph! Running around downtown with them, we felt like we were hanging out with good friends.


Brian waits to see Nicole for the first time...



...ready to give his bride her bouquet.



Love and laughter (in a bananalicious yellow parkade(!)).






Love the lines here - will be a BIG beautiful art canvas (750 pixels on the computer screen doesn't relate the drama quite as much as a 30x40!).

I think this is one of those images that we as photographers love, but mom and dad may be thinking, well, it's interesting, but I can't really see their faces!



Which is why we have this one too :).



The guys.



And the gals.



Brian and his best bud.



Is that little tux not just the cutest?!



The ceremony took place at UBC Boathouse.



Father daughter moment as they walk down the aisle.



Ceremony view from above - they were blessed with a perfect blue-sky day.


Nicole, a designer herself (www.kitandkaboodle.ca), had a clear vision of how she wanted her day to look, from her Japanese-inspired custom gown to the simplicity of the decor. I just loved all the details of her day ~ silky smoothly planned by the team of by Nicole & Natalie of Frog Prince Planners.







This image just makes me smile.


Married!


Congratulations!

Leah+Spencer=Buoyant!


A traditional shot... in an untraditional spot!

It's always fun to shoot a wedding at a new location! We were excited to be photographing Leah and Spencer's wedding at the UBC Boathouse - the first wedding ever held there!



This location is incredible - great architecture and stunning views of the city beyond the Fraser River. It's also a very meaningful place for Spencer & Leah. Spencer's there regularly at 5:00am(!) to coach the St George's rowing team. And he and Leah are both avid rowers - they first met through the sport. They wanted to select a spot that had personal meaning to them - to "come full circle" as Leah put it.

Here are a few quick favourites from their day!

The beautiful Leah gets ready...





While Spencer waits for her arrival at the church (with his new watch - a rehearsal dinner gift from Leah)



The lovely ceremony at the lovely heritage church the Minoru Chapel.





A warm welcome from the rowing team!



Okay, these are actually dragon boats...but they still look pretty cool! Love the leading lines in these shots.





We snuck outside when it was dark to get some cool shots with the lights of the venue and the city...




...before Leah & Spencer had their first dance as husband and wife.



Congratulations guys! have a wonderful time sailing in Greece!
