ashley & ivan

The annoying thing about Spring in Vancouver is that the weather is SO unpredictable. At the same time, the good thing about Spring is that the weather can change from bad to good in a matter of hours and thankfully it did just that this weekend. Ashely and Ivan were only in town for a few days to make the final preparations for their upcoming wedding and we were lucky enough to have the chance to get together for a quick engagement session at QE Park. It started drizzling only minutes after we began but we managed to hide under the trees enough to get a ton of great shots. I can't wait to see how all of their planning comes together in just a few weeks!!

tara & joey

Tara had a good feeling about today and I am so happy that she was right. With the weather being slightly uncooperative I was not sure if today would be any different, but thankfully Tara was insistent that we continue on as planned and lo and behold the rain stopped and the sun came out just in time for our e session. Tara and Joey were naturals and made me even more excited for their big day coming up in just a few weeks! I can't wait!! Here are a few teasers from our session...

March 20, 2010... Jacqueline & Nick

Is it absolutely strange that I haven't posted a wedding in almost 6 months?? I have loved my time off with my little girl but also was SO excited to shoot Jacqueline and Nick's big day and they did not disappoint. The bride looked stunning, the wedding party was hilarious and the details were perfectly suited to this amazing couple. And we were blessed with a gorgeous March day - what could be better? I could go on and on but figure since this is my photography blog, I will let the images speak for me. Thank you again to the happy couple for sharing your special day with me.

my little girl is three months old already!

Sometimes it is amazing how fast time really flies by. I always noticed each year seemed to go by faster and faster as I got older but now that I have a baby, it is going by at record speed. Charlotte is 3 months old today and blows us away everyday with her skills. She definitely is keeping us both on our toes, but in the best way.

my baby is three weeks old today!

I am definitely a proud momma who cannot help but show off her little one! Charlotte is three weeks old today and getting so big already. It is amazing how fast time is flying by considering the days are filled with feedings, diaper changes and sleep (or lack thereof). But I wouldn't have it any other way. :) I love it!

our new arrival

Well it has been ten days since our little Charlotte Jane was born and my husband and I could not be happier. She is absolutely perfect (and yes of course we are biased) but seriously, look how cute she is. ;) We are all adjusting to our new roles well and in true photographer fashion, as soon as I was feeling better, I had to bust out the camera to take a few shots before she gets bigger. Here are a few of our favs as well as one of me and my precious little girl. :)

p.s. thank you to EVERYONE for their patience and kindness over the past few weeks. Taking a break from my business is hard, but she is so worth it.

time to have a baby!

As most of my clients know, my husband and I are expecting our first baby in just a few weeks (or even days). We are very excited and cannot wait for her to finally arrive. After working really, really hard all year long, it was finally time for me to take a break though as we wait for her arrival and then welcome her into our family. Therefore for the next few months, I will be on a short maternity leave as I figure out how to be a new mom. Yay!

For any new couples interested in meeting with me to discuss your wedding day, I will be resuming meetings again in December or January so feel free to contact me anytime so we can touch base and I can send you any information you need before we meet in person.

To all of my current and past clients, don't worry, I will post photos of our little girl as soon as I am home from the hospital. I am truly appreciative at how wonderful so many of you have been over this past year and love how excited you are for her arrival! ;) I can barely stand the wait myself. Since we just hit the 36 week mark (and my doctors will only let me go until 38 weeks) I had my loving hubby take a few photos of me and the belly today. Here are a few...

p.s. thanks again for all of the good wishes as well!
