One of the coolest shots to capture the guests at a wedding is to do a giant group shot. All that is normally required is a ladder and space big enough for the number of guests.

When Bradley & Monique asked if we could get a group shot of 250-300 of their closest friends and family on the steps to their church on the corner of Nelson & Burrard, our response was Of Course! I mean, what’s a little stopped traffic when one considers how awesome it would be to get such a large group shot?

Well, we didn’t have a ladder but we had the next best thing. So, for your amusement, here’s a shot of Reilly on the roof of our ‘69 bug doing what needed to be done to get the shot.

Monique & Bradley’s wedding had so much COLOUR! The day was gorgeous and combined with the bright colours in the bridesmaid’s dresses and flowers the images we captured that day really are fantastic.

Congrats again! More to share from their wedding once they are all ready.

One word: Stunning.

That’s how best to describe Salima over the course of her 4 day wedding to Hafiz earlier this month. She was simply radiant in each of her many delicious outfits.

This wedding was an absolute treat for us. After having photographed a few weddings and engagement dinners within the family and their (very large!) circle of friends over the past year and a half, the wedding was as much a reunion for us as for all of the friends and family there to celebrate with them. It’s so cool to see small kids grow up, to get to see previous clients and their families, and to be so welcomed into the festivities as we were here with them. So, right off the bat, a great big THANK YOU to Hafiz & Salima and their families for welcoming us in with such open arms!

There are so many images and we’re still very much in the middle of sorting them, but we wanted to share just a few to showcase some of the colour and just what we mean when we say STUNNING. Enjoy!

Neil & Anusha are getting married on the September long weekend in what is bound to be an amazing 2 day affair. We recently did their engagement session in Gastown and Stanley Park and captured a number of images that show just how much fun these guys have together!

Wedding images to come in September!

We just got back into town after a whirlwind 4 day East Indian wedding in Alberta. I can’t wait to sort some of the pictures and show you what we got. The wedding was wonderful and the outfits as usual were to die for. Pictures soon!

In other news, I am so excited to share with you that we’re moving! As of September 1st our studio will be located in an amazing commercial loft in a historic building in the heart of Gastown. This move will give us a lot more space for displaying and sharing our work with everyone, for our client meetings, and for all the production work we do to put the final touches on each individual image. With tasty hardwood floors, wood beams, an original brick exterior wall, and views of the ocean and mountains, it will be a much nicer place for our clients to visit, too. Plans are also already in the works to bring people in for our first Blue Olive appreciation party at the end of the year! Stay tuned for details and we’ll look forward to welcoming you into our new studio starting in September.

On that note, we anticipate no major interruptions in our availability over the next few weeks and will continue meeting with clients through the transition to our new space. Of course, we’ll have to ask that you excuse any boxes during the move!
