Documentary Family and Wedding Photography
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.
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 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?
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 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.
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.
Rose and Aaron are so cute together and very goofy and playful. I’m not sure I managed to pose them once, but I love it when couples just act like themselves in front of the camera. I met Rose years ago, working in the booth at Langham Court Theatre (her stage managing, me on the lighting board). I’m so happy that they came out for the mini sessions on Sunday.
