Swaneset Wedding, Pitt Meadows

Linda and I first met when I photographer her sister’s wedding in 2021. Since then, she’s become a loyal client and an even better friend. Linda is quite possibly the only other person on earth as obsessed with dogs as I am, and it has created a deep bond between us. I was so thrilled when she and Cody decided to hire me as their wedding photographer. These two are kind, classy, and have a love that is timeless. They decided to privately exchange vows before the ceremony (and played ‘rock, paper, scissors’ to see who would go first). It was a very intimate and meaningful addition to their beautiful wedding day. Thankfully, with Swaneset so close to the gorgeous Pitt River, we were able to sneak away from the reception for some dreamy blue-hour photos before dancing the night away.

Alysha + Ryan // Intimate Wedding at Pitt Lake

I first met Alysha and Ryan when Ryan hired me to capture his proposal to Alysha (during a photo session with their pup!). These two wanted an intimate ceremony overlooking Pitt Lake, so they invited a handful of friends and family to the Pitt Meadows dykes. We lucked out with dry weather, but the sun played peekaboo behind the clouds for the entire ceremony. Sometimes they were illuminated in brilliant sun, and other times the light was moody and stormy. It made for a fun mix of mood throughout their photos. We had a ton of fun taking their photos with a classic car (until the battery died- but thankfully I always have jumped cables!) before heading to Chameleon Restaurant in Maple Ridge where everyone sat down for a delicious meal to celebrate. I absolutely love when couples create the wedding day that’s perfect for them, and this one was no exception!

Hilary + Greg // Pitt Lake Engagement Session

Hilary is one of my favorite adventure buddies (you may recognize her from my trip to Mayne Island!). As much as I'd like to hog her to myself, I'm pretty excited that she has found such an incredible life partner in Greg. Last summer, on the day they were moving into their new home, Greg got down on one knee in the doorway and asked Hilary to marry him. I've been eagerly anticipating their wedding and engagement photos ever since!

Tas + Jack // Pitt Meadows Mountain Top Couples Shoot with Sky Helicopters

In March I launched my brand new website, and to celebrate, I ran a series of awesome giveaways on my Instagram account. I teamed up with the amazing Sky Helicopters to give away a mountain top photo session to one lucky couple. We luckily had a break in the weather this past weekend, so we flew our winners, Tas and Jack out to a peak in Pinecone Burke Provincial Park and created some beautiful images of the two of them!
