West Vancouver Wedding // Jenny & Joel

Wedding cliches stretch far and wide, and you really notice this at the reception speeches. Ever heard the "joke" where whoever is giving the speech has the groom put his hand atop the brides on the table and says something along the lines of "and that's the last time you'll have the upper hand in this relationship"? This little skit must have a high ranking on Google for "wedding speech jokes". Another one is when the newly-weds have been together for a very long time. The whole "it's about time", "what took you so long", "'bout time you made it official" hullaballoo is an easy angle for cracking a few jokes. We've heard it at quite a few weddings by now. But not at Jenny and Joel's.

Document You // Amber & Bryan

Up until now we've been offering engagement sessions as a part of our wedding photography packages. Engagement sessions are very popular in Vancouver, as well as pretty much anywhere in North America, and the idea is to get photos done together before you're getting married. That's all fine and dandy, and we dig the idea of doing a photo shoot before the wedding. It's an awesome way for us to get to know couples and it's a great way for couples to get an additional set of photos, as well as to get comfortable with us. Win-win-win.

Fraser River Lodge Wedding // Mandy & Bobby

Bobby and Mandy had their wedding at the Fraser River Lodge in Chilliwack, and while it wasn't in a barn (we're big barn wedding fans), it was outdoors and smothered by gargantuous mountains, rivers and corn fields. Not bad. Then they took off to Hawaii and we went back into our editing caves.

Hotel Georgia Wedding // Sarah & Ryan

Booking weddings with couples who Google you from a faraway land seems to entail a leap of faith. Concluding that the photographers aren't crazy, and shoring up that they're actually the people they portray on the blog is the order of the day. We really liked Ryan's approach to confirming we weren't crazies when he rang us up from Toronto.

Cancun Wedding Photographer // Alejandra & Pepe

A few of months ago I flew down to Xcaret, just outside Cancun in the Mayan Riviera, Mexico, to shoot a wedding with one of the most talented wedding photographers in the world. Senor Fer Juaristi. A couple of days later I returned to Vancouver, having shot a wedding with not only one of the most talented wedding photographers in the world, but also one of the most genuinely nice people I've ever met.
