Oh, what a treat it was to get together with Maria and Chris and their wonderful families to photograph their wedding at the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club! And, as if the event and the venue weren’t spectacular enough, it was a Celebration of Light fireworks evening. It was breathtaking, see for yourself….
Late post from last month’s wedding. We had a pleasure to photograph Tracey and Mark tying the knot in Stanley Park. It was our third time photographing a wedding at the Vancouver Rowing Club and once again the event was spectacular! Both Tracey and Mark looked great and were very relaxed, surrounded by their wonderful families and friends. They did a great job converting the club’s interior into a chic cocktail party ballroom.
It was fantastic to photograph you guys again. Hope to see you soon!
I recently discovered West Coast Albums, a Los Angeles based maker of handcrafted albums, and my first wedding album produced by them arrived in the mail last week. The album is gorgeous and extremely well made! Let me tell you right off the bat, the book’s quality is evident the moment you pick it up and hold it in your hands. It’s only 30 pages (15 spreads) at 12″x12″ but it weighs nearly 7 pounds. I don’t usually measure the quality of an album with pounds but the sheer weight reinforces the impression of a very solid piece of craftsmanship.
The cover is a beautiful high grade leather with an inset photo printed on a very sleek matte metallic paper. WCA doesn’t put any restrictions on a size or location of the inset, it’s all up to your imagination.
The pages are thick and sturdy with rounded corners to avoid damage and this also makes them more pleasing to handle. Even the box is gorgeous, with an inset photo that matches the cover.
Jack Hudkins, the Sales Manager at West Coast Albums is a pleasure to work with, very helpful and quick to respond to all my questions and inquiries. I have a strong feeling that WCA albums will be a hit with my brides!
Weddings are rare occasions where families are truly brought together. It’s always great to observe family members meeting for the first time in months or years and seeing people express all the emotions that are hidden or subdued by everyday life. At Amy and Jason’s wedding the family ties were visibly powerful. It was such a pleasure to photograph this beautiful couple, their kids, parents, grandparents and siblings. We are fortunate to have witnessed their joy, their family histories, and their total dedication to their children.
Thank you Amy and Jason, we wish you all the happiness in the world!
And thank you to Jen from Hello Bella for planning and organizing this beautiful wedding at the Good Shepherd Catholic Church and reception at Morgan Creek Golf Course.
