Kirsten and Derek visited Victoria in 2018 and we did a mini session at Beacon Hill Park. They came back in July to get married on the beach with just the two of them. We headed back to Beacon Hill after the ceremony for some more golden hour portraits. These two are so adorable together. […]
ross bay Posts 1
Ross Bay beach is one of my favourite beaches as it tends to not be very busy. The light is best in the evening and can be really pretty at sunset (though sunsets in Victoria often just go from light to dark without a visible sunset). There’s a pebble beach and rocky areas, which can be slippery in the winter. If you hike along the beach to the east, you’ll find some fields of wildflowers and sometimes an adorable cat that follows you around.
Lori and Chad are Engaged
Lori and Chad visited Victoria last summer and we managed to get in a mini engagement session for their Victoria wedding coming up this summer. We met up at one of my favourite spots, Ross Bay beach. I know I always shoot there, but it’s just so pretty and usually doesn’t have a lot of […]
Susan and Michael are Married
Susan and Michael were married in August and we had a mini portrait session at Ross Bay beach later that evening. They recently moved to BC, so the beach setting was perfect. I loved her purple dress with her wild curly hair and how perfectly they coordinated with each other. I joked about one of […]
Alana and Ryan are Engaged
I met up with Alana and Ryan one evening last month. We planned for a sunset session, which can be tricky in Victoria as often the sky just goes dark with no colour and no visible sun, due to all the clouds. Driving there, it looked like we were losing the light and the clouds […]
Kadie and Mat are Married
I love everything about this intimate wedding from how the photos turned out to how adorable Kadie and Mat are together. Also, we met up a couple of days before the wedding and they brought me cookies! It was pretty windy that day in early June, which made for some cool waves and a free […]
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 […]
Andrea and Patrick Mini Session
Andrea and Patrick came out the Ross Bay mini sessions for some engagement photos. They felt a little awkward, but the photos turned out great. They’re so cute together and I bet their wedding is going to be a lot of fun. And hopefully, they’ll feel more relaxed knowing how photogenic they are. Book your […]
Christine and Brodie Mini Session
Christine and Brodie have been dating for three months. How awesome is it that they came out for my mini sessions at Ross Bay Beach? Most people wait until they’re engaged, or at least have been dating for quite a while, before getting any photos taken together. These adorable photos will be so great for […]
Shannon and Eric are Engaged
At the end of December, Shannon and Eric chose the perfect day (months in advance) for a west coast winter engagement session. It was a bit chilly out, but they’re used to much worse. We were all a bit sick with the Christmas cold, but the session was still a lot of fun and I […]
Robyn and Stephen are Engaged
I love this engagement session so much. I think I’m going to have to book all of my sessions near sunset from now on. Of course, it didn’t hurt that Robyn and Steve are totally adorable and fun. Robyn wrote me one of those great first e-mails that made me really want to shoot their […]
