Diego & Kerstina | 10.09.17

I met Kerstina in high school when I moved to Langley from Saskatchewan over 15 years ago. Several years passed after we graduated high school and Kerstina and I met up to catch up on life. We met at a pub that frequented karaoke competitions - they (the pub) were clients of mine and Kerstina competed in many of their competitions. But lets just say the majority of our conversation or "catch up" revolved around a "guy named Diego" (her boyfriend at the time) - I don't blame her! I finally got to meet Diego at their engagement session and I was truly able to understand why Kerstina was head over heels for Diego, they're a perfect match for each other!!

Their wedding was in the works for a while and man does Kerstina have many of the same personality traits as me: planner, organizer and a visionary. I loved it! I met the girls at Kerstinas parents in Burnaby to photograph Kerstina and her girls getting ready. The oh-so-talented Meagan met the guys at his family home in Whiterock to capture the guys preparing for the big day.

They decided to do a "first" look and formal photos prior to their ceremony. So we headed to Kwomais Park in South Surrey.

After formal photos we headed to the ceremony and reception site: Morgan Creek Golf Course. Their grounds are stunning and the weather was perfect for an outdoor ceremony. Check out all the smiles (oh and a few tears!) below:

Lawrence & Amelia | 19/08/17

Many of you know Meagan, she shoots 99% of my weddings with me and I am SERIOUSLY lucky to have her alongside me. She asked if I would help her shoot Lawrence and Amelia's wedding and of course I said yes! I started off with the "guys" getting ready at Lawrence's family home in New Westminster. The morning was super relaxed and stress-free, just like Lawrence! We headed to the Living Waters Church in Fort Langley for their beautiful religious ceremony. It was one for books - there may have been a groomsmen mishap mid-ceremony, but I will keep that one on the hush hush! (Note the missing glass in the communion table....) We headed to Derby Reach (escorted by a lovely gentleman from Stylish Arrival ) for formals photos. And then back to the Fort Langley Golf Course for a super entertaining reception.  The reception was full of entertainment - a caricaturist, Sitar and Tabla Player, Belly Dancer, Russian singer and Dancer & Bharatanatyam Dancer (check out all their info below!) Thanks for having me Meagan!!

Adam & Alison | 12/08/17

Alison and I went to high school together (almost 10 years ago!!! AH!) and when she contacted me asking if I would photograph her big day of course I said yes! I hadn't seen her in 10 years but was honored that they chose me as their photographer! Adam and Alison were introduced to each other through a friend. They love adventuring, the outdoors and are big time games fans. Their wedding even included an entire board games table and rubix cube key chain favors! They had a beautiful outdoor ceremony at Campbell Valley Park followed by their reception at the Fort Langley Golf Course.

Seth & Holly | 07.22.17

Wendy (of Ciao Bella Photography) contacted me and asked if I would second shoot a wedding with her - of course I said yes! With a full season of my own weddings it isn't often that I get to help out another amazing photographer. July 22nd was one of my only free weekends still available and it was so much fun to photograph Seth and Holly's wedding with Wendy. The ceremony was at Trinity Lutheran Church in Delta, BC. Seth and Holly had a vision for their wedding and executed it meticulously - full on Great Gatsby theme! After the ceremony we headed to Queens Park in New Westminster for formal photos. The bridal party, bride and groom were SO wonderful to work with! Lastly we headed to the Metro in New Westminster for the reception. Thank you to Wendy for letting me assist you at Seth & Holly's wedding - what a beautiful day!
