The Best of Blue Olive 2011 Weddings

wedding photographers Reilly & Miranda — Wed, 04 Jan 2012 03:20:35 +0000

It’s officially 2012 and we’re already looking ahead and excited about all the new couples we get to work with this year (both those who’ve already booked and those we haven’t spoken with yet!). With a nod to all the best-of lists we see this week, we wanted to pull together some of our favourites from this past year. Favourite lists are so fleeting – this list would absolutely look different if I chose again another day – but these are all images I adore for one reason or another, and as of right now these are my top picks for our Best Of 2011 list!

The best part is looking at a photograph and remembering the moment so completely – what her laugh sounded like, the anticipation in the room, how a voice cracked when giving an emotional speech. These are the things that make the moment, and I hope you get a sense of that in each of these shots.

So, without further chatter on my part, here they are. Enjoy!

Miranda (& Reilly!)

Happy Holidays!

wedding photographers Reilly & Miranda — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 01:12:09 +0000

Since I was little, it’s been a tradition in my family to give ornaments with the year and your name, and who gave them. It started with my Auntie Linda, and has grown to include my grandparents and other aunts and uncles. Decorating our tree is something I look forward to every year because every ornament is a memory, and a tradition I look forward to continuing for years to come.

Reilly and I are snuggled in at home with a beautiful tree, too much eggnog, lots of musical instruments and crafty things and empty inboxes. We’ll be keeping an eye on email over the next two weeks but for the most part we are so excited to simply enjoy the season!

Happy Holidays everyone! Hope you have a wonderful break with all of your family and friends

Iryna & Gareth’s Stanley Park Wedding

wedding photographers Reilly & Miranda — Wed, 30 Nov 2011 14:51:23 +0000

I adore the intimacy of the simplest weddings, and this was one of those. A handful of their closest friends and family and a few chairs overlooking the water at Stanley Park’s Ferguson Point set the backdrop for Iryna & Gareth’s wedding. After the ceremony we wandered down to the beach and finally to the get away car for a set of smoking hot images that I adore!

T&R’s Whistler Wedding

wedding photographers Reilly & Miranda — Sat, 19 Nov 2011 23:34:07 +0000

T&R were married in Whistler surrounded by close friends and family. I loved seeing how their faces would light up the second they looked toward eachother, and to say the day was magical would be an understatement!

The details set an incredible backdrop to the intimate wedding, with all the credit going to Sarah Shore and her team from Dreamgroup along with all the people at Upright Decor, Granville Island Florist, DJ Leanne, Greenscapes, Bearfoot Bistro, and the Uncommon Cake among others for a day that will be filled with incredible memories for this couple and those closest to them.

Here are 6 of my many favourites for photos from the day -

Elais & Gary’s UBC Boathouse Wedding

wedding photographers Reilly & Miranda — Mon, 24 Oct 2011 21:27:59 +0000

When couples choose to do both the ceremony and reception at the same venue I always like to stay close for photos so they can get back to their waiting guests as soon as possible. With the new landscaping and updates around the UBC Boathouse it made for a great place to walk around before heading back for the party!

The rain let up as if on queue to allow us outside for some beautiful portraits. I really adore these two and their images, so much so that I’m cheating on my own rule of 5 and am sharing 6 photos instead. Enjoy!

Bonnie & Ken’s Pan Pacific Wedding

wedding photographers Reilly & Miranda — Sun, 09 Oct 2011 20:28:58 +0000

Beautiful sunshine for the outdoor ceremony at the Pan Pacific made for a stunning backdrop to Bonnie & Ken’s Wedding. I love the whole area around the new convention centre as it’s such a great backdrop for photos that can feature the city or the water and north shore mountains – a picture perfect Vancouver setting for sure! Thanks as well to Dreamgroup for helping to pull the day together.

Here are my favourite 5!
