K, first of all, they picked great colours. Lime green and deep red popped against the snowy woodsey backgrounds. I couldn't get over it during the shoot. Secondly, sometimes I forget how easy photographing mature subjects are compared to *ahem* children (anyone who knows my kiddies can laugh with me on this one.) Thank you for being so accommodating, W fam. Merry Christmas!

I just love multi-generational family photos. So much life and history. Check out Papa J's wicked leather jacket. Awesome, right?! Merry Christmas S&J families! I can already hear the jingle bells...

This family was full of smiles, laughs and giggles. And those sun-changing glasses. Oops! Now everyone gets to see Mama W sans spectacles and what a pretty lady at that. Aren't you glad we snagged these when we did instead of this weekend? Brr!

Merry Christmas W family!

bride c + groom p || {bridal} | fort st john photographer

Loved the second half of their session. Locations I've beeing lovin' on for awhile, perfect warm sunlight, good-lookin' subjects. Purposely posed the bride and groom facing the sun in some shots. I like to break a few status-quos. Stretch the preconceived ideas a bit. And then there's the old cars. Starting to be somewhat cliche, yet not. Love. And now, Mr & Mrs S., you've got some great bridal photos. ;) Psst. They can personally fill you in on how all photographers are not equal in skill.

Enjoy.
