Documentary Photographer Lara Eichhorn
Documentary Family and Wedding Photography
Alexa of Artistry by Alexa invited me to take some behind the scenes documentary photos of their annual artistic photo shoot. You can see some photos that Emma Allen took at the shoot here. Alexa’s team of makeup artists and Christina from Salon C. made the models look amazing (well, even more amazing than usual). I had fun taking photos of the girls at work and playing around with composition and natural lighting.
In late March, I got to spend a morning at Oak Bay Flower Shop to document their (typical) busy day. Wendy wanted some photos to show the face behind the shop, since so many florist websites seem alike and don’t show whether you’re dealing with a real local business or not. As a bonus, for a wedding photographer, it’s always cool to see marriages in action and Wendy and Dave run the shop so well together. Since I’m headed out to a wedding in about an hour, I’ll let the photos tell the rest of the story.
I drove up to Cowichan Bay in December to meet Rebecca of Mrs. Jones Jams. Boy am I glad I did. She gave me some jam, and let’s just say that I need more – lots more.
We took some photos of her making raspberry jam in her shared commercial kitchen, all the way through to labeling jam jars at her home.
