Sometimes you need more than one photo to tell the story of a moment. One thing we love to do when we’ve got the time is to create a panoramic photograph of our couple. It’s a way to keep your subjects large in your frame and tell the story of their surroundings too.

We photographed Angela & Will at Lighthouse Park, but I’m renaming it Cotton Candy Island because the sunset was that delicious.

This photograph was created by taking 20 separate frames of Angela & Will and the scenery around them, then combining the 20 frames into one image. The resulting image size is ginormous (18,000 px across) and would look incredible printed out and hung up.

Man, it’s been a crazy busy time for us lately with loads of weddings, engagement portrait shoots, and already chatting with couples who are getting married in 2015. Things are whirlwind-ish, but so good. So cool to be invited into the biggest day of people lives.

Engagement shoots by the sea, in the forest, on vespas, at the park he proposed to her, with balloons, savouring coffee, and then going for cocktails after photos are done.

Weddings on cliffs, on islands, with tattoos, with prosecco, with cupcakes, with bees pollinating the Wisteria, with tears during the first dance, with awesome amazing people.

We also got to photograph the awesome ladies of FARMACIE for some updated individual and group portraits. These women are doing awesome things!

Here’s an unload of some of our favourite frames lately…

It’s no secret that we love adventures. And, the ocean. Luckily for us, Julia & Amiel love those things too and when they first wrote to us and shared about themselves, their wedding and some of their favourite things, I knew we were going to totally hit if off.

“We love driving on to boat ramps at low-tide, deep conversation, staring at the stars, quiet moments, having beach fires, spending time with our family and friends that are basically family, being in each others company, watching Downton Abby, eating delicious food at our favourite local restaurants, making beautiful music, appreciating beautiful music that others have made, and expression. Yes. Expression. Oh, and laughing. Yes. Laughing. #lol”

Haha! Don’t you just love that?

Julia & Amiel wanted to tell a little more of a story about themselves with their engagement portraits and had us photograph a Choose Your Own Adventure session for them. They were so laid back and up for anything, so we planned an afternoon of wandering through trees and along the ocean’s shores. We ended the day with an unbelievable cotton-candy sunset and then a beach fire and star-gazing. It was just so them. So full of joy and laughter. The kind of day when you can’t believe this is your job and how you get to meet such awesome people. A lovin’ life kind of day. I can only imagine all the great adventures that are in store for these two.

This was the best afternoon. Janessa & Ian took us on a bicycling adventure around Stanley Park, stopping casually along the way at some of their favourite spots. These two are really lovely, awesome people. After our first meeting with them, we were smiling ear to ear. Needless to say, our afternoon with them left us even more excited for their wedding day-cannot wait to witness the pure joy and celebration of these two!

Spent an early morning with these two, just after the sun came up for their engagement portraits. It’s fun seeing how individual personalities come out during our time together. Katie has this really sweet, goofy side to her and I can imagine that she is great at keeping Denver laughing. We can’t wait to see that come out even more at their wedding in July!
