Monika & Dave's Wedding




On Sunday July 5th I photographed Monika & Dave's wedding at Rowena's on the River. This is my second time photographing a wedding at Rowena's and it is such a beautiful location. I do admit the mosquito's were out in full force, but thanks to the breeze we managed to survive. While we were photographing the formals over at Minter Gardens the guests were relaxing by the pool with yummy treats. It was a nice small wedding with lots of charming appeal.

Tanya & Larry's Wedding




On Saturday July 4th I photographed Tanya and Larry's wedding. It was one of those hot, melty weekend days and unfortunately we didn't have a lot of shade cover to work with. We did the formals at the Surrey Golf Club, which has a very nice little pond and some pretty bridges. However we were a bit limited to the area we were allowed to photograph in as the golf course was quite busy. And its not like my camera or I would enjoy getting a golf ball hurled at us!
My friend Jeannie was in the bridal party and it was lots of fun working with her again as I actually first met her while photographing another wedding she was involved in. It is always interesting the people I meet while being a photographer...

Julia & Andrew Wedding



On June 27th I photographed Julia and Andrew's wedding. The wedding was out in Ladner and Tsawwassen, I have only been out that way one other time with a wedding last August, so it was nice to see some more venues that I have not been to before. It was bright and sunny, but not melting hot like the wedding I just photographed today. I have another wedding to photograph tomorrow, so look forward to some more blog posts once I edit all the photos!

Baby Alexandra



On July 1st I photographed Ken & Jen's new baby girl Alexandra. Ken is an old friend of my brother's and it was a lot of fun to photograph Ken's family as it has been years since we'd last met. Alexandra was a very cute and cooperative little baby. We just had a couple interruptions to feed and change a diaper, which is to be expected with new babies. Thus over all it was a great, very enjoyable, portrait session!

Prom 2009



On June 25th I photographed prom pictures for Christina, Braydon, Caitlin, and Glen. Everyone looked fabulous all dressed up! We took some photos at Sardis Park and at the old City Hall in downtown Chilliwack. We were worried there might be an issue with rain, but it turned out to be a nicely overcast day, just perfect for photos!
This was my first prom photo opportunity and I really enjoyed it!

Sandra and Adam





On saturday June 6th I photographed Sandra and Adams wedding. It was my very first wedding using an assistant and I quite enjoyed the extra flexibility and the extra company. I have also just learned a new photo editing program, which means you will now be able to see some new styles developing. (I am a big fan of the aged photo look). Plus this new editing program makes the behind the scenes operation so much easier, more creative, and enjoyable!
I had a great time working with Sandra, Adam and their friends.

BC United Church Conference



In May I photographed the 2009 United Church BC Conference. This is my second year photographing this annual event. The first year there were 5 new ministers being ordained and this year there were 15 new ministers being "added to the flock". It was a very enjoyable service and the theme of celebration was very strong, always a pleasure to photograph. You can view all of the images posted in my online gallery under "clients".
