It’s true! We’re hitting the road with a whole month in Cuba - and we should be safely tucked into our room in Varadero by the time you’re reading this.
We’ll be back in the studio on June 3rd. Internet is spotty in the land of the mojito, we’ll be getting online as much as possible but our responses may be a little slower than usual. Don’t have too much fun without us!
For all of you brides and grooms planning your upcoming weddings, don’t despair. We’ll be setting up consults for the beginning of June based on the order people inquire and will be able to confirm our availability from here. If you want to finalize your booking and don’t want to wait - no worries. We’ll send you the info and we can get it all done remotely.
OK! We can’t *WAIT* to share all the awesome images we’re going to have when we get home. Have a great month, and we’ll catch you on the flip side!

It’s official!
This past Saturday the sun shone and Carlo & Aleili got married!
We knew we were going to have a blast after their awesome engagement session a little while ago, and the wedding day didn’t let us down. From the hot dog stand for their guests after the ceremony straight through to the reception with gorgeous decor, everything was perfect.

I love this shot - married! Walking back down the aisle

Sometimes the journey is more important than the destination. Walking down the street to our photo spot for the day

The Ladies

The Guys

Carlo & Aleili


Where it all began… taking a minute at the spot where Carlo proposed

And finally, my favorite reception detail

CONGRATS again to you both!

Rachel and Alf are getting married in June, shortly after we get back! They are super sweet and ultra cute, and we are really looking forward to seeing them again for their wedding.
We met up in the rain the other day for a few engagement photos. The rain didn’t stop any of us though… here are just a few of our favs so far!

OK Folks, v1.0 of the new Blue Olive site is up!
The matching blog and new gallery images (most of those you`ll see were on the previous version) will come after our trip, I`ve simply run out of time!
The new site has bigger images, way more info on us and what we do as well as some of our fancy pants products, and is about a million times better from a technology perspective for a whole bunch of reasons.
If you use Firefox and have your text size increased things will work but won`t look as slick, but other than that I think it`s pretty damn sweet. Let us know if there are any glitches that I missed.
Check it out - http://www.blueolivephotography.com/ !

Granville Island is such an awesome location simply because there are so many different ways and places to shoot! No two sessions are ever the same.
This shoot was a blast, starting with lunch right through to sneaking photos in Sybel’s parent’s candy shop to getting to meet Rambo the dog. Their Sutton Place wedding in July is definitely one to look forward to. Can’t wait!
And - of course - Reilly needed to scratch his climbing bug, so I’ve thrown 2 shots in from his vantage point up a tree

We’re really looking forward to Ben & Ange’s wedding in July. We had a great time exploring the streets of Gastown and East Van to find just the right spots for the perfect shots.
Thanks for braving the wind, guys! The photos are super hot… here are just a few, can’t wait to share the rest!

It’s always an honour when other photographers ask us to shoot them, and all that much more fun when they are friends, too.
Tracey & Jonathan braved the cold wind and Reilly’s 4×4 driving dreams (in a car that is so not a 4×4) last week for a series of portraits.
Looking forward to seeing you guys again soon! Here are just a few of our fav shots!

It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since doing Sandi’s maternity photos! Natasha & Nathan are a tonne of fun, and a huge bundle of energy. I was excited to finally meet them recently. They definitely have their own very distinct personalities, and I can see that they’re going to be quite a pair when they are older!
Here are a few of my fav shots!

Pat and John were married at the beginning of the month at Hycroft Manor (The University Women’s Club). Hycroft is probably my most favourite wedding location here in Vancouver… the architecture is stunning, and I love that there are so many rooms and places both indoors and out for guests to mingle in and wander through. Love it!
Highlights of the day started with the gorgeous red gown and extended right to the individual cakes for each table of guests. I decided to pull together a bunch of photos to give just a taste of the day through our eyes!
Congrats again to you both!

I know there are a bunch of people waiting to see the first peek from their recent sessions - and they are coming! We’ve been ultra crazy the last bit with shoots and meetings as we get everything wrapped up before our trip. We’re heading to Cuba for 4 weeks in May, and we leave in just 2 weeks! So - keep checking back for all the recent shoots, and watch for our new website which we plan to launch before we head out.
Updates coming soon! Heading out now for another shoot today!
** Whoa… weird… we just this second got some new equipment in and our UPS guy used to be our bicycle mechanic. How weird is that?! He saw our bikes and was like hey! I recognize those! Haha - small world **
