Welcome Alexis











Two years ago, I photographed Lia & Kevin's wedding and I was really excited to hear that they had a little girl. Alexis is a few weeks old and I was so happy to take her first "posed" photos. She was an absolute angel through her first photo shoot. I think that we have a little model in the making!

Cute Little ReyRey

Sweet little ReyRey came with her Mommy to have some photos taken. As you can see from the photos she is an absolute doll and so good when I was taking her picture!

Candace & Reese's Wedding: June 16th

Candace and Reese were married in a lovely outdoor ceremony in Langley (In Candace's parents backyard). The rain held out for them and it was the perfect day for a wedding. We took some photos at Sendal Gardens and then proceeded back to the house for the ceremony. I was so impressed with all the decorating and the flowers. Candace's mom Liz is a super woman! She did a fabulous job with the flowers, decorating and all of the food!
I really enjoyed being a part of Candace & Reese's special day. Congratulations to you both!

Natalia & Cory's Wedding: May 19


Natalia & Cory had a wonderful beach ceremony in Port Moody at Old Orchard Park. The rain held out for them that day and the ceremony was beautiful! The bride looked so beautiful and the groom was very dashing. For all of the weddings that I have been to, I was so impressed with all of the speeches that were given during the reception. Each person gave such a wonderful tribute to both Natalia & Cory. I know that Natalia and Cory will have a long and happy life together!

Welcome Alita!


My friends Terri & Mark wanted to get some photos done of their cute little daughter Alita (Ali for short). Big sisters Kate & Maya
joined in for some photos too, and I have to say they are the super cutest! As you can see by these photos, they are all really sweet little girls.

Gowen Family Photos

I had the pleasure of meeting the Gowen family early this month; when I photographed them at Surrey Municipal Hall. Sandie said that her parents were celebrating their 50th Wedding Anniversay this year and they wanted some family photos for the party. I really enjoyed meeting the Gowen family and I hope they have a wonderful time at the anniversary party this summer.

Connor's 1st Year Photos

Connor & his Mom Ali visited me to have some photos taken for Connor's 1st birthday. Connor is such a happy and outgoing little boy. There were so many great photos of Connor, that I had a hard time picking out which ones to display!

Ken & Rebecca's Wedding: Feb 24

Rebecca & Ken had a lovely ceremony at the White Wedding Chapel in Chilliwack. The day began with rain, but the rain decided to stop when we wanted to take wedding photos!
After the ceremony we drove to Trethewey House in Abbotsford to take some photos. We were able to use the interior of the house and it was wonderful to use the furniture as backdrops.
Thank-you to Ken & Rebecca for allowing me to be a part of your special day!

Congratulations!

Shanna & Marc's Wedding Reception: Feb 2

My friends Shanna & Marc were married on January 11, 2007 in the Mexican Mayan Riviera. They wanted to celebrate their marriage with all the friends and family that were unable to attend to their wedding. So they planned a fun filled reception at Fredrico's Supper Club on Commercial Drive in Vancouver. They asked me to take photos of the reception and I was so glad to do it! The dinner was fabulous and the bride & groom looked amazing!
Some highlights from the evening:
- Marc's son's touching speech
- Marc getting all of his house keys back from the ladies (young & old)
- Dancing to the Phantom of the Opera (the singer even had on a phantom mask)
What a great time we had and I sure enjoyed taking photos at this special event.

Congrats to Shanna, Marc, Evan & Kianna. I know that they will have a happy life together!

Fall Family Photos: Oct 22









I headed out into the lovely fall weather to take some photos of some more great families.
Once again we made great use of the trees and the colours of leaves were just fabulous!
One of the best things about being a photographer is all the fun people I get to meet. All of the families today were great to photograph and I can't wait to give them their photos!





Enjoy the remaining days of October!

Fall Family Photos at Greenaway Park: Sept 30













I decided to set aside a day to photograph some fall family photos. Greenaway Park is a park that I love to photograph at, as it has a fabulous tree that is has low branches for climbing into. Needless to say, this is a perfect prop for family pictures.










I brought the pumpkins and spent 5 hours at the park, taking photos of the Saethers, Mountford's, Nijjar's, Neufeld's & Phoenix's. All of the kids that I photographed enjoyed running in the leaves and playing with the pumpkins.
It was a wonderful Fall day and I really enjoyed taking photos of these great families!

Happy Fall!

Brent & Tanya's Wedding: Sept 23

The weather has been so wonderful this summer and it continued to be perfect for Brent & Tanya's wedding. The wedding ceremony was so special and Tanya's son was a handsome little ring-bearer. Brent & Tanya's daugther was such a cute little flower girl, with her angel wings.
After the ceremony, we took photos at Crescent Beach and the wedding party was so much fun to photograph. The fun continued on the the reception at Sunrise Golf Course.

Thank-you to Brent & Tanya for allowing me to be a part of your special day!

Chris & Shelley's Wedding: Sept 16

Shelley & Chris were married on a yacht during the final days of summer. The "Hornblower" took us on a tour up to Deep Cove and the weather couldn't have been more perfect!

Shelley & Chris danced on the deck while one of their friends sang a beautiful song to them. We finished the day off with photos at Stanley Park in the rose Garden and on the Sea Wall.

Trevor & Lindsay's Wedding: August 26


Lindsay & Trevor were married on a beautiful summer day! I started out at Lindsay's Mom's house and I was introduced to her super cute nieces. They could hardly wait to go for a ride in the "limbo"(this is what they called the limo) and didn't want to waste too much time on photos. The ceremony took place at the little chapel in Burnaby Heritage Museum and it was a wonderful service! After taking photos at Deer Lake, it was time for the reception at the Italian Cultural Centre. The food was marvelous and the desserts were very yummy.
Lindsay & Trevor are a great couple and I really enjoyed meeting their families.
Have a wonderful marriage!

Tyler & Tricia's Wedding: August 12

Tricia & Tyler had a beautiful wedding ceremony at 3rd beach in Stanley Park. The wedding party was so much fun and we had a great time taking photos on the beach. Tyler & Tricia loved taking photos in the water and trying out some fun poses. Tyler even did some back-flips off of the seawall, which of course I captured on film!
The party continued at the outdoor reception in Aldergrove and I know the guests had a good time!













Congratulations to Tyler & Tricia and keep having that much fun together.
