Kyle & Stacey’s engagement shoot was the first time I met them in person … and I have to say I was so happy!  They are both incredibly sweet people and a ton of fun to be around.  You guys made my job so easy! and Stacey … thanks for all your super cute outfits with tons of colour!!  I cannot wait for your wedding next weekend!

Stacey loves The Hulk … lol!!  We had a riot at this comic store …

I have not intentionally neglected this blog … I have been uber sick with that blasted H1N1 and am now finally feeling human enough to do a blog entry

As many of you know I am a fan of the Queen’s Cross Pub in North Vancouver and am always happy to help Chris out when there are new things on the menu.  I shot these quite awhile ago and have just now been able to blog them.  If you are in the neighborhood, definitely stop by and try out these delicious new items!

I had the honor of photographing Mike’s proposal to Alex a few months ago and think they are such a sweet couple!  I really enjoyed spending some time with them on their engagement shoot!  I was thrilled when they asked me if I would photograph their engagement session because I (unfortunately) cannot shoot their wedding in September due to a prior commitment in New York City…so, out we went and had a great time at the Lonsdale Quay.

Alex … you are going to make a stunning bride!  All the best to you both.

Phi and Hormazd live in California but decided to have their wedding in Vancouver since she grew up here.  We met a few days before their wedding in Deep Cove for their engagement shoot.  It was nice to be able to spend some time with them before the big day

Saturday’s wedding Photos to be posted soon. 

Seriously…are you really that gorgeous!!  Hellllloooo mint chocolate chip eyes

They brought some props with them on this shoot … Dave is a HUGE Canucks fan … but there was NO WAY Katy was posing

 Quick outfit change and we have ourselves one seriously h.o.t. couple!!

couldn’t decide which photo I liked best … they are completely different feelings …

This photo I was completely in a bush and almost falling off the ledge

We had so much fun!  I was always singing weird things on where we were going and how I loved sun flare … I kept forgetting who I was with!  Katy has the voice of an angel!  She is uber uber uber talented!  She sings in a group calledAliqua…check them out!  Amazingly talented women!  You can download their music from the website or go to your local HMV and grab a copy of this 10 woman choir’s cd…you will not be disappointed.

So … having said that … here are a few photos of the lovely Katy singing away during our shoot…

Katy … hope you don’t mind me posting these … they were just way to cute!

Thanks for coming out guys…can’t wait to shoot your wedding in July!  Have I mentioned you totally ROCK!!

I was excited when Chris from the Queen’s Cross asked me if I would take some photos for his new website.  I don’t normally do commercial shoots but I absolutely love going to this pub!  I have blogged about the Cross before and if you are ever in the area (it’s in North Vancouver…Upper Lonsdale)…you really need to check it out.  Their food is delicious!  Their drinks are yummy!  Their live bands/dj’s are a riot!!  Their tvs are huge for any sport fanatic!  Their staff is very friendly! 

Here are some of my favourite shots from the day. 

My husband and I have always loved watching live bands and hanging out at little pubs.   When we moved from NYC, we were worried we wouldn’t have anything close by … well … stumbling distance from our home is the best pub ever!  The Queen’s Cross is only about 4 blocks away and we frequent often…especially if there is a live band.  One of our favourites is Adam Woodall.  Sometimes they play as the Adam Woodall Band and others as Rosco.   They do not disappoint in the fun department.  They are awesome to dance to and guaranteed to put on a great show!

Here are a few shots of them playing at the Queen’s Cross.  If you get a chance to check it out…I highly recommend.  Plus the food at the Cross is amazing as well as all the staff…especially the owner Chris

Ok all…it has taken me forever but I finally have my website up and running. Please stop by to check it out!

Big thanks to Maura & Dan for their patience with this newbie…all your help was greatly appreciated!! Shout out goes out to Daddy for entertaining Max so I can get this done. You ROCK!
