Derek & Michelle | Wedding

Derek and Michelle contact me several months ago asking if I would be there wedding photographer - instantly I wanted to say YES! But then they told me the location - Washington state. Again, beautiful location - but alas I am not legally allowed to work in the USA. Boo. Several weeks later Michelle messaged me asking me again if I would photograph their wedding - they SWITCHED LOCATIONS! Instead they decided to go with something low-key and local. Their friends and family gathered around on a VERY hot June day at Rocky Point Park in Port Moody. It was super casual, very easy going and SO THEM. When I first met Derek and Michelle at their engagement session I couldn't have gotten along any better with them. They both have very carefree, warm-hearted and easy going spirits about them. Friends and family from near and far came to celebrate their marriage. And when the officiant asked "Can we please have your witnesses come and sign the paper," Michelle piped up "Friends, someone come sign this thing!" And about 10 minutes into portraits she said "time to kick off these heels." *See last photo*

Derek & Michelle | Engagement

Derek and Michelle are two of my favorite people. They could not be anymore perfect for each other. The entire time they would look at each other and say "You're cute," and "no you're cute." I should have counted how many times they said it! That is just SO them. They are the most easy going and fun-loving goofballs I know. My kind of people! I cannot wait to photograph their wedding in a few short weeks. I will let the photos speak for themselves... 

Peterson | Family Session

Lisa contacted me a few weeks back to organize a family session. Her children are older now (she has two beautiful daughters) and have spread out a bit across the country. Jenna (her eldest) went out to the East coast for school and now has no immediate plan of returning (she met a fellow!) So, when all siblings are at home for a visit it calls for a family session. And we also had the pleasure of their 92 year old grandma joining us - what a treat! We lucked out with a stunning sunny day in Langley at Derby Reach Park. 

Resende | Maternity Session

Daniele called me a few months ago wanting to set up a maternity/family session - it was her second (and last) child and she want to document it. She had been following me on Instagram for a while - crazy! Just ONE year ago she moved to White Rock, BC from Rio De Janiero, Brazil. Why did she move you ask? Several years back, her now husband (a pilot) was vacationing in Brazil for 4 weeks when their paths crossed. He met her at her workplace - where she found local accommodation for visiting tourists like himself. They got married and she made the leap to move to White Rock last year. Although she misses home, she says really loves BC. Check out some sneak peak from their session below.
