Well hello there! Fancy meeting you here

Our latest E-Session we’d like to tell you about is that of Ali and Simon. We had a lot of fun on this cold winter day (back when winter = cold in this town.) One thing we LOVE is fun. But really, who DOESN’T love fun? I mean, you’d have to be weird not love having fun, right?

We met up with this cute couple at Jean Beaty park in Point Grey. Simon proposed to Ali in this park, so it was a great place to start.

We then moved on to downtown Vancouver and shot a bit around Robson Square. They had started setting up the new zipline for the Olympics, so there were a lot of blue fences up. We still got a lot of great shots in, though.

There’s a red coil-shaped sculpture in Robson Square, and Ali and Simon wanted to do a few fun shots in there. Remember what I said earlier about loving fun stuff? Well, of course we were game

One thing that they had mentioned to us when we first met with them was that they loved the use of off-camera lighting. We shot their engagement session an hour before sunset, so we got to do a lot of off-camera lighting.

Ohhhhhh Caaaaa NaaDaaaaaa!! The Hotel Georgia is under major renovations and right now the entire building is covered in a huge Canadian flag. We decided that it was a great backdrop to use, so here ya go

Lastly, I’ll leave you with this. They wanted to have some fun with jumping shots, so we took a few shots and they turned out excellent So… I guess the theme for this shoot was… fun? ;D

Thanks Ali and Simon! We’re really looking forward to your wedding!

Late in November we shot an engagement session with these two fine folks. It was cold and cloudy, but we all had a really great time out in English Bay and Stanley Park.  They kept each other laughing and smiling throughout the shoot, which by the way, are key ingredients to a happy marriage. Here are a few of our favourites. Enjoy:)

We’re shooting their wedding in late June, so watch for a blog post about it sometime in July

There’s a full write up and blog post coming up for these fantastic folks, but to whet your appetite I’d like to show you one shot from today’s engagement session

Folks, meet Chris and Katie. They just recently got engaged and I was lucky enough to shoot them. Seriously, it was so much fun! We visited a bunch of awesome locations, and they were such good sports for letting me lead them all over. Anyway, less ‘blah’ and more “YEAHH!!!” Here are the photos:

Thanks Chris and Katie for an awesome evening! It was a lot of fun photographing you

Ok, so I know exactly what you’re thinking. You’re thinking “Awwww, c’mon!! Another Teaser?!!” And yep, you’d be right. But what can I say? I tease. It’s my thing… it’s what I do.

So anyway, I’ll have a full blog post soon, but I wanted to put up an image I came across when I was editing this session.

We’re all watching our money these days so we’d like to help out. For every dollar you spend on an engagement session between now and Sept 31, 2009, we’ll give it back on your wedding! Think of it as our gift to you on your special day. You’ll get amazing photos and be able to splurge a bit more on your honeymoon without breaking the bank. Take that snorkeling adventure you’re on the fence about. Learn to dance the tango. Play the $100 slots in Vegas. Have fun on our dime!

We love Downtown Vancouver. We love Yaletown, Gastown, the waterfront, Granville Street…pretty much everywhere. We were lucky enough to meet a cute couple who loves it just as much as we do. Here are a few shots from their engagement session.

I love the mix of colours in this shot.

We didn’t even plan on this location! We were just walking by and they pulled us into the alley way and we started shooting!

I think this one is our favourite!
