New wall murals unveiled at Moksha Yoga
I just installed eight large-format metal prints at Moksha Yoga Kelowna that I produced of their passionate and vibrant instructors.  At 30x45", these prints are a sight to behold!  Please feel welcome to visit Moksha's open house tomorrow (Saturday) between 2-6pm to view my prints. Stay to enjoy a free drumming workshop or just say hi and explore the beautiful studio.

Tammie & Ludo - to be parents sooner than they knew!
Today we just found out that Somae was born, which was only 5 days after we shot this maternity session.  Somae was around 4 weeks early, but healthy & cute as a button.  Tammie & Ludo are a beautiful couple that met each other in Kelowna, BC, which is quite the distance from Ludo's former home-base in France.  They operate a SPIN (stands for: Small Plot INtensive) farming company called "Urban Dreams," which brings local and organic produce to the Okanagan as well as www.worldofworms.com, which educates individuals on the advantages of worm composting and provides the products to get started.  We love how conscientious they are of the environment and how their green initiatives are making this a cleaner and better world to live in.  We look forward to the opportunity to photograph their little bundle of joy next month and can't wait!

Ludmila & Peter - engaged
We were super excited to get out of our home base of Kelowna and travel down to Vancouver for Ludmila & Peter's engagement session. Katherine and I were both born in White Rock, which is about a half hour drive outside Vancouver. Although we love the Okanagan, the ocean and fresh air has a way of calling you back. We love how their engagement shoot encapsulates the beauty of Vancouver - dramatic seaside sunsets at the stunning Whytecliff Park and then the classic beauty of historical Gastown. When scouting Gastown, we found the most gorgeous teahouse, Apres-midi, which is located in one of Vancouver's oldest buildings located at 1 Gaolers Mews (quite possibly the coolest address ever). As we were scouting out locations earlier, we came across it and knew that we had to bring the couple back for some photographs. It totally reminded us of so many cafes in France, when we were there earlier this year. If you're looking for a gorgeous place to sip premium tea, head down there! Thank you Apres-midi for granting us special permission to use your beautiful space. Ludmila & Peter are an amazing couple and crazy in love. We hope you two have a super fun engagement party this week!

Brenda Molloy - Studio Chi
We were so honoured when Brenda contacted us to capture some images for her new website and branding.  Brenda is a well recognized Shiatsu Therapist, Sounds Practitioner, Yoga Teacher, and Feng Shui Consultant having studied in Berkeley, California & New Mexico.  She is also the founder and main instructor for Studio Chi in West Kelowna, which offers in-depth Shiatsu Practitioner and Training Programs since 2002.  Looking at the snow outside our window, it's hard to believe we photographed these images last month in October!  Thanks to Tina Prichard, who was Brenda's model and designer for her "new" look.  We've had the pleasure of working with Tina over the last several years on different projects and are always impressed with her aesthetic and vision.  We love how these photos emanate Brenda's joy, peace, and beauty.  Thanks Brenda for all your gorgeousness!

Stephanie & Matt - to be married on August 12, 2012
Saturday Matinee at the Movies! We were so excited when Stephanie and Matt mentioned they wanted their engagement shoot in a movie theatre being the serious moviegoers they are.  Sign us up!  Of course, we had to shoot this at Kelowna's oldest movie theatre - The Paramount downtown.  A HUGE thanks to Ashley from the Paramount for granting us special permission!  So with vintage hats (thanks Vintage Origami!) and nostalgic candy in tow, we headed downtown on a beautiful Saturday afternoon to meet Stephanie and Matt, who flew out from Calgary for the photoshoot.  This was the first time we met them in person and they are such a sweet couple - totally up for anything and we loved their great clothing choices!  The Paramount was even awesome enough to put on the movie, Singing In The Rain, which provided a super fun vintage background.  Things got a little silly, but rest assured we picked up every piece of popcorn!

After our movie theatre shoot, we headed down to McMillan Farms to take in some of the fall beauty and wow, that place was busy with tons of people coming out for fall festivities!  Thanks Ron for being so accommodating to us during your busy season, we truly appreciate it!  After finding our way through the corn maze, we headed on the hay ride to one of our favourite trees in Kelowna which sits upon an open field surrounded by friendly cows and beautiful horses.  So picturesque.  What an AMAZING day! Stephanie & Matt, you guys rocked it!  We are super excited to shoot your wedding on August, 12, 2012 at Summerhill Winery in Kelowna!

Sarah & Nathon - married on October 22, 2011
We were so excited to photograph Sarah & Nathon's wedding this October at Summerhill Winery in Kelowna, especially when we found out that we photographed Sarah's Aunt Marie's wedding several years back in the Okanagan. We loved all the deep peacock colours at the wedding and the beautiful hairpieces that Sarah handmade for herself and her bridesmaids. Sarah & Nathon met at university in Ontario and currently reside in Calgary. Even thought we didn't meet them until the day of the wedding, we quickly discovered what a sweet, humorous, and down to earth couple they are. We loved their dramatic candlelit ceremony in Summerhill's pyramid amongst the barrels of organic wine. So romantic. After a champagne toast and some photos with the wedding party, we continued on with portraits of Sarah and Nathon. At this time of year, the light goes down early, so we quickly found ourselves in darkness; however, we came prepared with lanterns to create some magical and romantic night time images. After dinner and some dancing, we stepped out with the couple and the wedding party for a final send off image, complete with sparklers and the city lights twinkling in the background. Sarah & Nathon, thank you for choosing us as your photographers. We are so honoured to have shared your beautiful day with you, your family, and friends. Congratulations!
