Elisa & Jeremy - Whonnock Lake, BC Wedding

Whonnock Lake is one of the lower mainland's best kept secrets and it made the perfect spot for Elisa and Jeremy's Wedding. With all their friends and family they had a beautiful outdoor ceremony at Whonnock Lake Centre. I love photographing in new locations, and learning about new spots in the lower mainland since I'm originally from Victoria... okay, 6 years ago - but still the lower mainland is HUGE. Whonnock is beautiful! I was so thrilled when I went and checked it out for the wedding.

You can tell the closeness between Elisa and Jeremy. Small hints between the two of them that they may have been together for years, but they are still passionate about one another. The way they would make attempts to be touching throughout the day. Jeremy resting his arms around Elisa during the reception, or Elisa nuzzling up close to Jeremy. Elisa has a heart of gold and it shows in her character and how she treats everyone around her. The cool and collected Jeremy shows his soft spot for his now wife Elisa. His humour and jokes made it easy to have a blast during the photos.

With gorgeous sunshine the wedding was beautiful. I'm forever grateful for the very organized italian family of Elisa. Her uncles help organize the family photos with ease, and Elisa's mother was always on top of the details making sure everything that needed to happen did.

Elisa and Jeremy were truly wonderful to photograph. Elisa is one of the sweetest girls I've met, along with her bridesmaids... holla at her maid of honour 'Ashley' - name kudos and the 'Sarahs'. These girls were so much fun, and let's not forget about the boys - 'that's what she said'..... Their wedding was awesome, I truly had such a great time, and I'm so excited to share these images with you all.

Featured - Published Online: Brianne and Peter's Wedding in Sash & Satin

So excited to finally blog about Brianne and Peter's May 2012 wedding being published online in SASH & SATIN! YAY! When Elyse contacted me and asked to feature the wedding online I was floored that she saw the post and loved the wedding! Getting featured is such an honour for a photographer as taking photos is my art and I get to unleash my creative side.

How they didn't cross paths earlier on in life is a little bit of a mystery. Bobbi & Scott both grew up in a small Vancouver Island town - Duncan. Later on in life making the trek down to Victoria and eventually crossing paths online! Yup, that's right - they met online! After realizing how much they had in common and the "click" of realizing this could work - years went by and August 6th - they celebrated their Wedding Day in Duncan at Zanatta Winery. 

A beautiful hill-top setting tucked off the beaten path, views of vineyards, and a heritage feeling all over the property. It was a beautiful venue for an amazing couple.

Bobbi wore a beautiful Alfred Sung dress and bling ear rings! 

Shoes from Aldo, and the garter from Blush Bridal (how cool is that bag!)

Scott's gift from Bobbi, a timeless piece - a pocket watch (did I get a laugh for saying timeless?)

Bobbi was tucked away in the tasting room as the ceremony approached

The fabulous archway that Bobbi's father made for the day of

The bubbles making rainbow light patterns with sunset shinning through them

Thank you both for having us be apart of your day! Congratulations!
