So, I had two brides named Nadine in a row, but their weddings couldn’t have been more different. Nadine and Trevor had a tiny ceremony at French Beach, just the two of them, an officiant, myself, and their florist to witness. It’s pretty lucky, and unlikely, that these two met through work since he’s from Vancouver […]

Ryan and Chisu are Married
Ryan and Chisu had a small ceremony at St. Ann’s Academy in Victoria, with only three guests in attendance, though they were so lively, it felt like more! They set up a tablet to record the ceremony so that Chisu’s family could see it from afar. Chisu was so giggly during the ceremony, I couldn’t […]
John and Sarah are Married
Sarah and John came from Minnesota to get married in Victoria, during out slightly less cold January. Some of his family lives here, so it was a intimate ceremony upstairs at The Guild. They were getting ready together at The Empress Hotel and I was able to capture his lucky-guy grin when he saw her […]
Michelle and Cory are Married
Michelle and Cory originally planned a destination wedding in the Bahamas but according to Michelle, “Hurricane Matthew came along with other ideas.” They ended up changing their location to Victoria, just a bit across the border from their home in Washington state. They were both really good sports about it and had a fun intimate […]
Deb and Alan are Married
Deb and Alan work together on a yacht in the Caribbean, so they took advantage of a visit to Victoria, where Deb is from, to get married. They originally planned to have her parents witness the ceremony, but ended up having his parents, her brother’s family, and Deb’s friend attend as well. They decorated the […]
Neil and Rory are Married
Neil and Rory live on opposite sides of the US-Canada border. They both traveled to the island to elope in Victoria, with a few close friends in attendance. They love the pacific northwest, so Ross Bay Beach was the perfect spot for their wedding with the ocean and mountains in the background. Barbara Densmore officiated […]
Karen and Mark are Married
Karen and Mark had a small wedding at the gazebo on the westsong walkway in Esquimalt last Monday. The location was within view of Mark’s parents’ apartment where they were armed with binoculars, since it was difficult for them to travel to the site, and they also tuned in via video conference. Mark and Karen’s […]
Michelle and Kurt are Married
Michelle and Kurt came to Victoria to get married in a simple ceremony with only her daughter’s family in attendance. This was my first ever church elopement and it was surprisingly relaxed and fun. After, we took a limo ride to Government House for some portraits. The limo ride with Michelle’s granddaughter was rather adorable, […]
Solmaz and Sasha are Married
Solmaz and Sasha visited Victoria at the end of August to get married at the Inn at Laurel Point. I love elopements where it’s just two people in love. The awesome Iain Hooey officiated and provided a second witness (I got to be one too). We headed to the parliament buildings to take some portraits […]
Alison and Philip are Married
Alison and Philip had an intimate wedding at Merridale Cider with only family in attendance, including her brother sharing officiant duty. I love these small weddings and how everyone feels so comfortable with each other. The emotions and laughter flowed easily. Their ceremony was lovely and an eventful mix of religious traditions, including a simply […]
