I kind of love these guys a lot ;)

Terri-Lynn is simply stunning, and combined with John who has an incredible sense of humour (confirmed by his antics during the reception – John’s a reporter and put together a fake broadcast that had everyone in stitches!) they make a fabulous pair. They were also a blast to shoot, which is always a good thing.

Next up is the album – I can’t wait to see everything in print!

Shari joined our crew of course and we were excited to work with our good friends Andrea & Rob over at Lotus Events for coordination of the Celebration Pavilion & Seasons Restaurant wedding, with a nod to Oasis for the flowers and Cupcakes for the treats!

Sometimes we photograph big weddings and sometimes we shoot small weddings, and this is one of those.

In the dark of winter we joined Marshall & Laura for just a few hours during their wedding celebration. The wedding itself was only about a month after Marshall proposed – but with family visiting from overseas it wasn’t a question that they needed to be there, so the wedding was timed to match. And, while some are excited to spend months planning and fine-tuning every detail, it was the perfect plan for the two of them.

Seasons in the park is always a treat with such a warm atmosphere and delicious food to match. The sparkling city lights visible through the many windows in the skyline room along with the reflections of all the lights within add the right amount of sparkle, making the perfect backdrop for the dinner party inside.

Congrats again to you both!

Weddings are always extra special for us when we know the people getting married, and in this case it was our friend Nelson who was tying the knot!

The wedding just days before Christmas turned into a much more winter themed event than ever thought possible for Vancouver with the blizzards rolling in the night before. With 4 wheel drive engaged and even a backup photographer figured out and on call in the chance we got stuck or snarled up in a fender bender on the way (all very likely given the crazy weather and the trip to south Richmond for the getting ready!), we were off.

Walking in to Jana’s home my eyes definitely lit up when I saw what she was wearing – no white winter number for her. Instead, Jana rocked the sassiest little hot pink dress compliments of Betsey Johnson that I’ve ever seen!

The day was a beautifully intimate affair with close friends and family safely tucked inside the warmth of Seasons restaurant while the snow blew outside. We captured just a few images with the snow for posterity, and stuck to the fireplace for warmth after that.

We recently headed out for an after session to rock all after sessions with these two so more will definitely be coming of that, but for now, here are a few of our absolute favorite wedding day shots!

And now – that is *officially* a wrap for our 2008 weddings. We can’t wait to start posting our 2009 events!

Sahar & Chris were married on Saturday at the new Celebration Pavilion in Queen Elizabeth park, and they held their reception there at Seasons Restaurant.

Sahar was the perfect classic bride – I loved how she had her hair done and her dresses (one for the day, and one to dance in!) were classic and gorgeous to match!

They chose for their photos to be of just them which afforded us lots of time to drive around the city with their classic Rolls Royce grabbing photos wherever we went.

A few minutes after their first look, here they are on the couch in their new home by UBC

I really loved that they used stones for their guestbook, allowing guests to write well wishes with a permanent gold marker. These are fantastic as they can be displayed in so many ways and in so many places in their home, and will be enjoyed I think more than a book that seldom gets opened.

Also, they chose to decorate their tables with the simple flower arrangements shown but more importantly with pictures they had taken from their many overseas trips to the countries featured on each one. Family and friends at the table were able to look through the photos and share the stories they had heard from the couple about each trip, and guests were encouraged to take any pictures that they really enjoyed.

And finally, getting to know both Sahar and Chris we really got to see the fun loving spirit they share. On that note, I think that this non traditional cake feeding shot shows a tonne of personality!

Congratulations again, guys! It was an honour to celebrate with you. See you after your honeymoon!
