Government House Portrait Photography Posts 1

Government House has gorgeous gardens with no admission fee. There tend to be fewer people around than at say, Beacon Hill Park, though you may run into some wedding parties. The gardens range from well tended rose gardens to rocky steps and garry oak forest to more formal settings.

Karen and Chris are Engaged

November 7, 2016 by Lara Eichhorn

I met up with Karen and Chris at Government House in mid-September. I got there early and it started pouring, so I texted them to ask if they wanted to reschedule. They wanted to wait a few minutes and see if it cleared. When they arrived, we grabbed a couple of umbrellas and hid under […]

Looking at these photos, you can tell it’s spring here. Everything is so green at Government House and the flowers are starting to bloom. Julia and Chris were in town to organize some wedding details and I’m glad I finally got to meet them in person. They were full of smiles, nervous but cute. Her […]

Ashely and Travis had a small family wedding at Abigail’s Hotel a couple of weeks ago, on one of the sunniest days in April. For them, this is a prelude to a larger wedding in the fall, but for me, it was an awesome little wedding. Ashley and Travis were getting ready together when I […]

Shannon and Sean would win the award for funniest couple of the year, though maybe it should be amended to include the wedding party and their families. Shannon spent the morning making faces at the camera, while all of the girls danced around and laughed like crazy. The boys spent a fair bit of time […]

Shannon and Eric were married at Sea Cider in early August. Shannon is an artist and clearly put a lot of effort and care into every detail of their wedding. Verbena Floral Design‘s amazing flowers were the perfect complement to the DIY details, along with many items by individual artisans. I loved that Eric had […]

Jeff and Veronica are Married

October 15, 2013 by Lara Eichhorn

Jeff and Veronica had an intimate wedding at Abkhazi Garden in late September. Luckily, the sun came out a bit in time for an outdoor ceremony. I love that Veronica wore a gorgeous green dress instead of the traditional white, and Jeff wore a shirt to match. They had an adorable flower girl who carried […]

Erin and Bob are Married

September 7, 2012 by Lara Eichhorn

Erin called me about a last minute elopement in August. She said she wanted to go into the ocean in her dress, which set my mind whirring with ideas. I finally got to meet her just before the wedding at Abigail’s Hotel and she was adorable and fun, as expected. Then I met Bob and […]

Randal and Sarah came to Victoria for New Year’s Eve and we had a fun evening portrait session. We went to Government House and wandered around for a bit and somehow managed to miss the sunset, finishing with some night photos at the lovely Abigail’s Hotel. She’s a yoga instructor and he works in media […]

Susan and Tyler eloped at Abigail’s Hotel in Victoria, travelling with their daughter, parents, and Susan’s friend from Regina. I loved hanging out with them for a few hours and witnessing Susan’s excitement at seeing the gardens at Government House. She was in such a great mood, and for good reason. Though the champagne might […]
