The summer started out with a bang for Avni & Joe’s whirlwind 3 day wedding! Cecil Green, Coyote Creek, and even the Vancouver Public Library all played host to parts of their celebration. And of course, all the  beautiful colour! With so many different events it’s hard to choose what to share. Here are a few highlights –

A huge shout out to the lovely Erin from Fuego Events for the gorgeous flowers & décor and pulling everything together, and to our good friends Kathy & Steph from Marliss Productions for being a blast to work with as always. This wedding also marked our 2009 welcome to Tamara who joined Reilly for our July – September weddings.

Cheers!

Karen & Arjuna flew from their home in New York to Vancouver recently for a whirlwind wedding weekend. The ceremony day started out at the Mission Sikh temple and continued into the city for the Fairmont Hotel Vancouver reception!


With a day that started very early in the am and went into the late hours of the night, it’s almost impossible to pick just a few images. Here are just a few of the many that caught our eye…

The day came together with the amazing Geneve from DreamGroup productions planning and organizing, with decor and flowers by Wedding Design Studio, (yet another!) gorgeous cake by Paula from Aeyra cakes, and rentals through Upright Decor to name just a few. Jeanie joined the Blue Olive team to round out the day.


Congrats congrats to you both! We hope your New York reception winds up the festivities with just as much grace and glamour as the one here in Vancouver. Cheers!

There is little that I love more than bright, bold colour – and Dee & Chris’ wedding at Mayfair Lakes had plenty to spare. From the outfits to the blue sky to the super fun car details of the reception – the day was full of colour!

The photo session took a cool twist with an abandoned building nearby that made for some great images. Love it!

Hasna Mehndi, Pamper Me Pretty and Surdel Party Rentals were just a few of the vendors who came together, topped off by the cake maker – the Bride! Yup, Dee made her own (totally fantastic) cake! Tracey joined the team once again to second shoot.

I’m definitely looking forward to designing the album for this one! Chat soon, guys!

Last Sunday we hopped an early ferry over to the island for Terry & Preeti’s Hatley Castle wedding at Royal Roads University.

There is so much to say and yet words don’t seem to do it, so I’ll let the images do the talking. Needless to say, it was an AMAZING location to work in and we were so glad to be there with such a fantastic couple!

Neil & Anusha were married earlier this month with parties and celebrations spanning over a few days. These images are from the Saturday Hindu ceremony. In addition to these, we also were honoured to attend the reception the following day and to do a session with just the two of them the day after that when we could steal away for some specific images outside of the hustle of the wedding itself.

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!

Zaheeda & Hussein were married in a whirlwind 4 day affair two weeks ago. After we photographed the wedding of good friends of theirs last year, these two took one look at the album we had done and knew they wanted to bring us to Edmonton for their wedding.

And what a treat it was! Their families welcomed us in as though we had always been there. By the end of the weekend I found myself tearing up right along with Zaheeda’s mom as the final ceremonies were performed and Zaheeda left the home of her parents for good with her new husband.

And, of course, the colour. Every outfit was stunning, but the turquoise lengha she wore for the reception on the third day and the matching outfit donned by Hussein was incredible. I can’t wait to share more.

And, on that note, with literally thousands of images captured from this event we’ve hardly had a chance to even begin to sort! With so much going on and so many great moments captured, I can’t wait to share the rest with all of you. For now, I pulled a couple images from the third day to give a taste of just what the weekend held.

Enjoy!
