Evan and My Dad

Fred's dad's car was never just a car. We knew that from the time we first met them as they were planning their wedding in Mexico. What it means to him, and the way it connects to the transformation in both Fred and Mel when Evan came along, is very special. Evan is a beautiful combination of Mel's playfulness and Fred's kindness, with lots of spirit mixed in!

Together

From the moment we stepped into Shannon and Innis' home, we knew their beautiful family was full of happiness and kindness. It's affirming to see a family so connected, and so grateful for what they have and for who they are.

Three of Us

It's wonderful to think about what life looks like through the eyes of a child. And in the case of Shannon and Maribeth's family, it's beautifully fun!

As a Child

It’s amazing to watch what can unfold in a short period of time between a family. That’s exactly what happened when we captured this beautiful family videography and photography session on Jericho Beach in Vancouver.

It’s almost impossible to predict what things will look like when kids are involved, but the results are at times fun, at times thoughtful, and at times moving. We love the wisdom in children, and their openness can teach us so much about how to just “be”.

This session is a perfect example of our Vancouver family videography sessions, married with our photography sessions to produce a beautiful and connection family story.

Love and Pancakes

Nothing can bring a family together like cooking a meal at home. As soon as we heard Jen mention their traditional Sunday mornings, our eyes lit up! Their session was very special and warm, and gave us a really wonderful opportunity to get to know the family. It was easy to be pulled in from the very beginning.

This session is an excellent example of our family videography and short films combined with a photo story (or photo essay).

Our Miracle

We had a very special pregnancy story session (one that includes our videography combined with images) with Kate and Andre as they were heading into their last few weeks of pregnancy. Our history goes back a number of years with Kate when once upon a time she was our hair stylist. And then we had the privilege to photograph their beautiful Vancouver Club wedding back in 2009. A week after their wedding, Kate got some news that would transform their life together…

The Ladybug Whisperer

Charlie-Ann has become a very special part of our lives over the past few years. When she was 6 months old, she was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) - a muscular disorder that prevents the growth of healthy muscles. Shortly after reading about Charlie-Ann, we captured a session for her family not knowing whether there would be more sessions to come. But what amazes us about this little girl is not her challenges, but her shiny spirit. We recently created this short film for her family that shows us just how resilient she is, and how after everything she has gone through, she continues to be so courageous. We think she's incredibly lucky to have a dedicated and conscious mom like Cherie.

We hope you enjoy seeing them connect the way we do - they bring so much to those fortunate enough to be around them. There's no doubt that Charlie-Ann is a very special little girl.

From Two to Three

We often get a chance to photograph families as they expand over the years. But Brenna and Rob's family is very special to us since our relationship with them dates back to photographing their wedding day. And now with the addition of Liam, we've photographed over half a dozen of sessions of them and their expanding family.

My Third Sunshine

Queen Elizabeth Park was the setting for Monica and Sean's family session, and it provided great variety in backgrounds, as well as lots of space for the kids to run around. The result was lots of energy, fun and tired out kids! A parent's dream! Besides being wonderful parents, Monica and Sean are such talented and inspiring individuals. You can see more about M. and her rap on her Facebook page, and more about Sean on his blog, Life and Music.

Growing Up

We had a great time on a summer day with the extended Thomson family. They were only in Vancouver for a short time - and a great opportunity for the entire family to be together and to capture that memory!

Our session with them was full of fun and variety, like most of our sessions.

Enjoy!

Sheer Joy

It's wonderful to think about what life looks like through the eyes of a child. And in the case of Shannon and Maribeth's family, it's beautifully fun!

Plus One

The birth of a sibling always brings a lot of joy, and sometimes challenges (just ask our oldest!). With this family though, it was all joy the day we captured their family of four. We loved the sign that we captured towards the end of the session – very appropriate for any families with new babies!

The Two of Us

There’s always a special relationship between each parent and their sons and daughters. And that was very true in our session with Lea and Rachel. We encouraged them to tell the story of how Rachel came into Lea’s life – and watching what unfolded in the images told it all…
