We had so much fun with Rose & Voytek last weekend at Granville Island & couldn't resist putting together a little video montage.

Both were dressed in blue, so naturally we had to find a blue wall.


Rose was a natural!


but we had to warm Voytek up a little!


It didn't take long to find some fun spots ...


The price we pay for hot images ... it turns out there was a little tar on one of the posts behind Rose, but luckily we only got it on the hands instead of the dress!


Lately, a bird seems to find it's way into every session we do ... I consider this to be a sign of good luck :D


Granville Island is full of interesting walls ...


And we only had to kick out a few kids at the children's playground ... kidding! Poor Voytek though, not a lot of leg room in there.


Ice cream sounded great for a little break, but alas the place had just closed.


Colour is like candy to me ...


It's always fun with a lot of tourists watching your every move!


It was hot enough out there, almost tempted to run through the water. :D


Time to feed the geese ... actually they were too smart and knew we didn't actually have any food for them. ;>


Timing the traffic is always a fun game to play.


Time to wrap it up and head for a frosty draft ... can't wait for the wedding!

Usually it's the guys who are the big sports fans like myself, so it was quite a surprise to find out what a big World Cup fan Mariana was! I think all that face-painting she displayed on her Facebook page the last month paid off pretty well today, even though Spain was only a second favourite after Mexico! Felicitaciones España!

Rosy & I first met Mariana through our mutual friend Becky (an awesome hair stylist here in Yaletown) and it was great to hear she was getting married. The "big wedding" is planned for Mexico, but when they decided to have a smaller one here first, we were excited to get the call!

I don't know if it's our laid-back approach or what, but we seem to attract the best clients, just fun, affectionate & really happy to be together! I was a little worried that Dan might be a little tired after driving in all the way from Edmonton, but absence makes the heart grow fonder and in this case, they were just that much more excited to see each other. :D

Probably my favourite image from the day, I think the romantic in me likes the secret garden feeling of this one.

In looking forward to an awesome wedding upcoming with Tracy and Mike, I thought it would be fun to put together a little recap of our engagement session last year!

We started off in Yaletown and worked our way to Jericho Beach. They brought along Charlie, their black lab, and he definitely seemed to prefer the wide open space on the beach.

Video here!

See you soon!

I'm not sure how we got lucky enough to pick the beautiful sunny day in between days of pouring rain, but Victor's attention to the weather forecast sure paid off! We spent a great afternoon with Cal & Victor at Van Dusen Gardens, taking advantage of the fall colours while they last. :)

Trying something new here ... posting a little slideshow instead of individual pics.

We took advantage of a sunny Sunday to shoot Etoile + Dan's engagement session. It was a blast, starting from the place where they first met as UBC students and continuing down to a busy Granville Island!

Heta and Jarkko, we had a really nice afternoon with you! (They are a cool Finnish couple that came to us for a portrait session before heading off to Hawaii for a couple of weeks!) We can't wait to show you all the fun images when you get back!

Engagement Shoots in Winter? Yep, this time of year is pretty cold and wet for outdoor engagement shoots, so we've had to move in to the studio lately. We had a great time last weekend with Krystal & Scott!
