Also married in July was Bella and David - this couple is so easy to work with - they are willing to do anything! We covered a good part of the city with this wedding.
Bella and David’s ceremony took place at Our Lady of Fatima Parish in Vancouver. Following the ceremony both families headed to Trout Lake Park in Vancouver for a picnic lunch while we photographed family portraits in between sandwiches and watermelon!
The rest of the afternoon was spent taking a leisurely Water Taxi ride through False Creek to Science World. Try finding a Water taxi to take a group of 10 people on a busy Saturday afternoon. Luckily, the captain, seeing a bride and groom, sent for a larger boat. When there is a wedding dress and tuxedo involved no one can resist the opportunity to make the day extra special!
We photographed the wedding party and bride and groom around Science World and then back on the water taxi for more photos at Stamps Landing. We finished the afternoon stopping for Gelato - which left the bride and groom refreshed before the reception! Newlyweds are so cute - they even share their ice cream.
The night carried on at the Hellenic Centre on Arbutus in Vancouver. A big Thank you to Gentleman Jim’s Limousine Service for accomodating the many locations we visited!

Sarah and Kevin were married in early July. (I know, I know… we are well behind in our postings and figured we better do some catching up :).
On the day of the wedding, we met Sarah and Kevin at Minoru Chapel just before the ceremony to catch the guests arriving. It was a perfect weather day and we had the photography itinerary planned out down to the minute just to fit in all the locations we planned to visit along the way. After the couple exchanged their vows we headed into the park for some quick photos and then traveled to the location of Sarah and Kevin’s first date. A few years back they had written their names on a rock under a Richmond Bridge so we re-created that special date right down to the bright red jiffy marker (photo below)!
As you may have read from a previous blog entry, Kevin recently re-certified his pilot’s license and flew us for pie to Chilliwack. So of course we visited Iona Beach since it was close to the airport and presented a hopeful opportunity to see planes overhead. Every time one passed Kevin would tell us the call sign - which we were quite impressed by.
The reception was held at Mayfair Lakes Golf and Country Club in Richmond . It was at Sarah and Kevin’s wedding that I developed a new craving of Jelly Bellies candies. They had candy dishes at the head table enticing me every time I whisked by to take a photo. I have to thank Sarah and Kevin as after the wedding they dropped off a very large container of Jelly Bellies to the studio. Now, everyone else is hooked! PS. I will leave you all of the popcorn flavoured ones Sarah!
