So things are kind of crazy out there right now and, on top of everything else, that means weddings are having to be cancelled or rescheduled. Kayla and Kathryn were going to get married in Victoria in April, which will sadly not be happening. I’m hoping they’ll be able to reschedule and their vendors, including […]
Couple Portraits Posts 1
Below are blog posts featuring couple portraits, engagement sessions, anniversary photos and documentary photo sessions featuring couples. Most take place in Greater Victoria, BC, which is a great location for portraits due to it’s beautiful beaches, mountain views, and stunning gardens.
I like to focus on capturing natural expressions and real emotion in my portrait sessions, so I lightly pose couples and direct them using prompts and conversation. Some of these sessions are partially or totally candid, which is a great way to document an important part of your relationship (ex: walking your dog, hanging out at a favourite cafe or pub, doing a hobby together).

Kieron and Katie are Engaged
Katie and Kieron waited until the weekend before their wedding (this coming Saturday) to do their engagement mini session because they were hoping to avoid the rainy winter weather. Well, it rained. And we all got pretty cold and wet, but at least we got some pretty photos out of it.
Samantha and Michael are Engaged
Samantha and Michael wanted some engagement photos before their destination wedding, so we met up at Finnerty Gardens at UVic in October. It was a bit darker than I expected, but some pretty evening light snuck in through the trees. The fall colours were pretty stunning too. It was a lot of fun getting to […]
Lori and Chad are Engaged
Lori and Chad visited Victoria last summer and we managed to get in a mini engagement session for their Victoria wedding coming up this summer. We met up at one of my favourite spots, Ross Bay beach. I know I always shoot there, but it’s just so pretty and usually doesn’t have a lot of […]
Susan and Michael are Married
Susan and Michael were married in August and we had a mini portrait session at Ross Bay beach later that evening. They recently moved to BC, so the beach setting was perfect. I loved her purple dress with her wild curly hair and how perfectly they coordinated with each other. I joked about one of […]
Nicole and Brendan are Engaged
Apparently this is my second blog of the year. Good thing it’s a great one. Nicole and Brendan are getting married next year and I’m so excited to work with them after this adorable golden hour engagement session at Cattle Point last weekend. They showed up with similar thoughts to many of my clients about […]
Marina and Travis are Engaged
Marina and Travis live in Florida, but they’re getting married on Vancouver Island in October. They visited for a little wedding planning last month and we squeezed in a mini session at Cattle Point. Luckily, they missed most of the smoke we’ve had recently and we ended up with a super sunny day. Marina is a […]
In-Home Anniversary Session
Carmen and Brad wanted some photos to celebrate their fifth anniversary as a couple. They chose their first apartment together as the location, which I love because it’s so personal. Plus, their place is super stylish and bright. And they’re pretty cute together too.
Kirsten and Derek at the Park
Kirsten and Derek visited Victoria last week since he already had to go to Vancouver for school. They’ve been dating for almost a year and I think it’s awesome when people get professional photos taken early in the relationship. It’ll be fun to look back on as the relationship evolves. Plus, you get to be […]
Alana and Ryan are Engaged
I met up with Alana and Ryan one evening last month. We planned for a sunset session, which can be tricky in Victoria as often the sky just goes dark with no colour and no visible sun, due to all the clouds. Driving there, it looked like we were losing the light and the clouds […]
