Renee & Steve | Engagement Session | Granville Island

This couple blew me away from the word “go”!   They put so much thought into this engagement session and I think it really paid off!!  Renee said to me that most people do not get their photos taken professionally and she wanted to look her best!  She had her ring cleaned … her hair...

Crystal Hahn - LOVE the red concept! SO EDGY!!! FAB FRAN!September 1, 2010 – 9:04 am

libby - love, love, loveAugust 20, 2010 – 10:50 am

Elena - Stunning! Remind me of some retro movie. Something to keep forever and look at when you are 85 :) August 18, 2010 – 2:18 pm

Jess - Um, Fran. Amazing! I love every single photo! If I ever have an (obviously rock n’ roll) engagement/wedding I want you to shoot it!August 17, 2010 – 9:17 pm

Jill and Mike Drever - YOU TWO ARE STUNNING!! Beautiful Beautiful inside and out you two – absolutely love the shots! xo cuz Jill and MikeAugust 16, 2010 – 6:26 pm

Noushine - I was blown away ! The shots were astounding and the couple truly stunning. Renee, you are a beautiful, bubbly, and cute woman as is, but in the pictures you were transformed into a totally different beautiful woman – a sophisticated, seductive model. Who knew ? As for the shots, I liked the vividness of the blue outfits (totally suits you both) and the shots involving the rearview mirror and guitar as props. They were very creative and obviously showed that a lot of thought and care had been put into them. Way to go, guys ! A terrific start to the journey of wedding planning. May everything else go just as well for you. :) August 16, 2010 – 2:40 pm

Laura Hana - Fran, I LOVE the bright colours. Everything is so perfect!August 15, 2010 – 10:56 am

Sukhi - Thank you dear Steve and Renee sharing such artistic pictures reflecting the happiest time of your lives and the happiness really matters to me at the end of day!In fact, for the first time from a friend!So far I have never thought of such pictures perhaps I am still a chronic bachelor!? Anyway, every picture is great in its own place and therefore, I’ve checked them all! Wish you all the best with the ever increasing happiness! And again happy in your own happiness!“If grass can grow through cement, love can find you at every time of your life.” “True love begins when nothing is looked for in return.” ~Antoine De Saint-Exupery “To love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides.” ~David Viscott “…One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life: That word is love…” ~Sophocles
“There is no remedy for love but to love more” ~Henry David Thoreau “Words mean nothing unless they are followed up with commitments.”August 14, 2010 – 11:19 pm

Tasleem - These are amazing pictures, wow! I love the different backgrounds and the shots of just the legs and feet, as well as the kiss in the rearview mirror!:) And the guitar was the perfect touch in those casual shots! Renee, you do look like a model. So beautiful. The shots of you and Steve in front of the car, in particular, belong in a magazine! Awww… you guys make such a good couple, in real life and in photos! lol!August 14, 2010 – 9:33 am

Laura & Adam |The Pinnacle Hotel | North Vancouver Wedding Photographer

There are certain people in this world who make you feel so comfortable, like you’ve been old friends for years.  Laura has that effect with everyone she comes into contact with.   Then there is Adam.  He is also one of the sweetest people I have ever met.  Seeing the two of them together …...

Barb Isman (Adam’s Mom) - Hey Fran,

The beautiful dresses are packed away, the flowers, cake and decorations are long gone and the venue has since hosted a few more weddings. Of course, we have the memories of a perfect day but even this can be expected to fade over time. That’s why I am truly thankful that,with your skill and caring nature, you have gone beyond mere pictures…you have actually managed to capture the feeling of love and joy between Adam and Laura that we were privileged to witness. Now when we look at the pictures, it will be the feeling not just the images we remember forever. I am so thankful though that we chose you to photograph Laura and Adam’s perfect day.

Gratefully,
BarbAugust 11, 2010 – 11:17 am

jenberry - first of all you find the perfect light for the bridal portraits. her skin is glowing. secondly i love the emotion of the last shot. there’s something special about it. i know you can’t see the bride’s face, but i feel like i know what it is, you can just tell by the groom’s reaction. it’s a perfect capture. you rock.August 10, 2010 – 9:55 am
