So in case you didn't know, Logan and I recently spent 2.5 months in Ireland. We originally planned to live there for a year, but things didn't go exactly as planned. We still had an amazing time while we were there and were able to tour a large amount of the country. Locations included: Glendalough, Dublin, Cliffs of Moher, Killarney, Dark Hedge, Giant's Causeway, Carrick- a- Rede, Leap Castle, Mayo and Ballinastoe! If you want to see even more scenery and and know more ab

I'm assuming that when looking at Glendalough, it isn't hard to understand why I wanted to take some photos of someone within these gorgeous ruins. An old monastic site, Glendalough is a beautiful mix of nature and ancient stonework that creates a perfect opportunity to produce beautiful wedding photos. Ireland, you never disappoint! #Irelandelopementphotographer #Irelandadventurephotographer #irelandgayweddingphotographer #irelandelopementphotography #irelandweddingphotogra

So for the last few weeks this winter, Ireland had spring weather. The weather was dead calm with almost no rain and no wind. It was so calm and warm that people had been talking about how much it worries them to see the weather so different than usual. The month before that though, it rained every day (not exaggerating) and the wind blew like crazy every day too. I was starting to think at that point that the entire Irish winter was going to be one endless wind storm. So the

Can you imagine, you take a trip to Ireland from the US with your love. He convinces you that you need to drive across the country just to go to some cliffs... and then, out of nowhere, he drops down to one knee and pops out a ring! AND THEN A PHOTOGRAPHER IS IN YOUR FACE TAKING A BUNCH OF PICTURES! But that somehow makes it all the more magical, because you have said yes at the Cliffs of Moher! Congrats you two! Gus, you did well! #vancouverislandelopementphotographer #vanc

The thing the Internet doesn't tell you about Ireland is how many incredible places there are here. It seems like every direction I look reveals another incredible natural scene. Looking on the internet, however, I would never have known that this entire set of photos could be taken above Glendalough. I'm so happy we chose to come here for our adventures in Ireland! Two weeks ago I put out a model call to find people that were willing to hike with me in formal wear for som

I love intimate weddings. And I love the forest. And I love intimate weddings even more when they're in the forest. If I could photograph elopements and intimate weddings in the forest all the time, I would be over the moon. When Darylann and Devin contacted me about their intimate wedding at Englishman River Falls, I knew it was going to be a fantastic day. I wasn't wrong. Everything from the location, to their family, to the love that showed so strong between them was pe

One of my favourite things about photographing weddings is meeting people with similar life experiences to mine. Laura and Garrett are Vancouver Island born and raised, but moved to Alberta as adults. I have spent half of my life in Alberta and the other half on Vancouver Island. This meant that we had lots in common and their wedding was such a beautiful mix of the Alberta country life and BC's incredible forest beauty. And to top it all off, these two had their dogs inv

One of the coolest things about being an outdoor photographer is that I can choose pretty much anywhere as my office, so when I find clients who are as into exploring as I am, I take full advantage of that. Like during so many other west coast days, the skies had opened up, but that didn't deter us from getting out into the forest and finding an awesome lake and lookout for some photos. #irelandengagementphotographer #irelandelopementphotography #irelandweddingphotographer #n

Camping!!!! I wanna be like, "it's that time of year again!" But these photos are from February, so clearly I go camping regardless of the time of year haha. This post is full of beautiful winter forests, my first attempt at astral photography, quads, puppy doggies and good times by the fire. #vancouverislandelopementphotographer #irelandelopementphotography #adventures #forestadventures #lakecowichanweddingphotographer #lakecowichancamping

I feel like these photos are going to speak for themselves, just as any other Tofino engagement does. The weather reports were calling for rain, and so I headed out to Tofino expecting to be covering my camera in a ziploc and praying that I didn't get water on my lens. But instead, the clouds only circled and we were blessed with one of those rare sunny West Coast days :D Mikaela and Nico decided to elope on the beach, They did all of the official marry-ish stuff on the la
