Joel & Daisy

What a perfect day. The weather was amazing – especially for a November wedding. We were even able to do the family portraits outside! What a treat for this time of year.

3 stunning outfits… many friends and family… and a lot of love. That pretty much sums it up.

I started pulling out images to blog and it was getting out of hand so I pared it down… what you don’t see here are the touching moments where Daisy’s dad watches her finish getting ready from the back of the room, the tender ceremony, the tea ceremony bringing together two families and two cultures, the musical performance complete with song, guitar, and kazoos during the reception, and too many toasts and heartfelt hugs to count… and the list could go one and on. Daisy and Joel – it was such a pleasure to spend your day with you and to see just how loved you both are. Congratulations!

Getting ready

Congrats again to you both! Best of luck with exams in the coming weeks. We’ll look forward to sharing the rest of your images!

Draw Results are In!

Joel and Daisy are getting married tomorrow!

They recently moved from their home in New York to Seattle, but with the wedding in Vancouver we didn’t get a chance to meet up for their engagement photos before now. So, in between all of the last minute running around, we met up this morning in the gorgeous Vancouver fall weather for their engagement session.

Here’s a sneak peak. See you both tomorrow!

(pssst… the draw for our facebook page contest will be happening in the next couple of days. Watch the blog to see if you’re one of our lucky winners!)

Thanks to all the photographers who came over tonight!

Just a quick note to say a great big THANKS to all the amazing photographers who came to our studio this evening for our second annual Vancouver wedding photographer year end studio bash. We had somewhere around 45 people all told with folks travelling in from all directions. It was great to see everyone and to catch up after such a busy year! Cheers!

Lovestruck!
