Beacon Hill Park Weddings and Portraits Archives - Documentary Photographer Lara Eichhorn

Kirsten and Derek at the Park

July 22, 2018 by Lara Eichhorn Leave a Comment

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 congratulated by random people walking by because they think you’re engaged. We did the shoot near sunset, which is actually pretty rare for me. Check out that gorgeous light (and the cuties in front of it).

Julia and Alex are (Still) Married

July 4, 2018 by Lara Eichhorn Leave a Comment

Julia and Alex renewed their wedding vows last month at Beacon Hill Park with their adorable girls, Daphne and Iris, in attendance. They wanted some fun family photos taken afterwards while they were all dressed up. Their girls are fiercely independent and love to explore on their own and with their folks. All four of them are pretty darn cute, if you ask me. I got a good workout chasing them around for an hour and I think they all went for a well-earned ice cream afterwards.

Angela and Cody are Engaged

I met Angela and Cody back in 2014 when Angela’s sister Shannon got married. Now it’s their turn, in less than a month from now. We managed to squeeze in some engagement photos a couple of weeks ago at Beacon Hill Park and Clover Point. It was fun hanging out with these two cuties and I can tell they’re going to tear up the dance floor at their wedding, along with her super fun family.

Rachel and TyResse Mini Session

Rachel and Ty visited Victoria for their third wedding anniversary. We met up at Beacon Hill Park for a little session. Rachel is also a photographer in Puyallup, Washington, which always makes me a bit nervous, but it ended up being a fun time. She totally understood why I chose the locations I did, despite random passers-by suggesting other locations (usually worth a look, but not during a short session). These guys are pretty darn cute together, right?

Rhonda and Adrian Mini Session

I did a mini session for Rhonda and Adrian’s daughter Brittany and her boyfriend James last year. She liked it so much, she bought a session for her parents. For some reason, I was expecting an older couple, but these two are clearly not old. They were really cute together and Adrian loves to wrap Rhonda tightly in his arms. He was in the middle of doing so when a bunch of baby ducks suddenly surrounded them. You can see mama duck peeking on from the water. We found lots of flowers in bloom at Beacon Hill Park, making for a colourful, fun session.

Kelsey and Jonathan Mini Session

Kelsey and Jon wanted some portraits done in their new city for Christmas. We met at Beacon Hill Park shortly before sunset. There was frost on the ground when I got there and kids pulling sheets of ice out of the pond, but Kelsey and Jon didn’t let the cold get to them. I was pretty excited about the gorgeous sunset light peeking through the trees and how adorable these two are together.

Rob and Emily Maternity Mini Session

Rob and Emily came out to my last mini sessions of the summer, which just so happened to be perfect timing for some maternity portraits. They seemed super excited about their first baby and I think it shows in these photos.

Chelsea and Jonny Mini Session

Chelsea and Jonny came out for my last set of mini sessions for the summer, at Beacon Hill Park. These two are very good at smiling at the camera, and smiling at each other too.

Eric and Amanda Mini Session

Eric proposed to Amanda on a cruise to Alaska, and they stopped by Beacon Hill Park for an engagement mini session on their way through Victoria. Eric felt a little awkward, though Amanda was a natural in front of the camera, but I think the photos turned out really cute.

Brittany and James Mini Session

Here’s the last mini session from Sunday at Beacon Hill Park. Brittany and James have been dating since their early teens, and they’re pretty adorable together. The pink fire sky was starting to show by the end of their session.
