Brooke and I had such a great time with this couple; a warm breezy evening with soft glowy light could only mean we were happy happy girls! We shot two locations we’d driven by before but never tried out – I’m so glad we did….even if that meant I had to cancel a late night client meeting because I was still picking thorns out of my clothes! Pat and Kara, you made our jobs easy peasy and so very enjoyable. Thanks for being fab!

A beautiful session for a very beautiful couple. Sarah and Shane will be married this September, and it is a wedding I am truly excited about; their attention to detail is nothing short of fabulous…..when I saw Sarah’s dress and Shane’s blazer and his Pa’s hat – to say I was inspired is an understatement. Only one setback happened on this shoot – we were bombarded with rain and a very stormy sky, so we decided to outrun the rain. A 45 minute drive later and we found ourselves in this stunning field Brooke and I had spotted during a drive to Vancouver. It couldn’t have turned out better……even with the rain:)
Sarah and Shane….thank you for being so patient with me; and especially for being so sweet – it was easy to capture the real “you’s”!
Michele
Yup, I know…..paper envy, right – AND it’s letter pressed. Yum oh yum. NOW do you understand why we’re excited about the wedding?!

This wonderful couple is getting married September, and I cannot wait for what is sure to be an incredible day. We headed out this evening to a black sky and a lot of rain. We drove for an hour while crossing our fingers and hoped for a break. Well, we got it. Just so happens Brooke and I had spotted this field on our drive to Vancouver and the sun peeked out just as we were driving past. To say I am thrilled with this session, and more importantly, this couple – would be an understatement. Sarah and Shane, the two of you are so obviously in love that you can do no wrong in front of the camera. I loved photographing you together and am counting down for the big day:)
Enjoy your peek! ( And stay tuned for the full post)!
06/20/2010 - 9:18 pm - :) Oh, I love it. Your photos are so beautiful!!!

06/17/2010 - 12:30 pm - This is super cute! Can't wait to see the rest of this session. And thanks for stopping by our blog and the wonderful comment you left!!!
This session was pleasantly surprising……with a last minute call from Brooke, I dropped off my girlies ( with her husband…hehe)! and headed a bit out of town to meet up with Ash + Ryan, Brooke’s “soon-to-be” bride and groom. As we drove to the location, the clear sky not only clouded over, but blackened. I mean, lights out. It was dark, drizzly and very windy. Not the situation you’re hoping for with an out of town couple that neither Brooke or I had met before. But luck was on our side again, and although the drizzle stuck around, Ashley and Ryan’s positive vibes, adorable pups and trust in our abilities made the shoot a success. And yes, I know…are they not ridiculously good looking?! That paired with a beautiful location meant a shoot we are both giddy about. I can’t wait to second shoot this wedding! Tune in to Brooke’s blog for many more images….
Ryan + Ashley…..thank you!
Michele
I know……crazy beautiful, right?! And Ryan, your eyes…WHOA! I’m thinking it’s a safe bet to say your kids are going to be pretty darned cute:)
Two of the most well behaved pups I’ve come across….and cute to boot:)
Ashley, you are simply beautiful. 
06/17/2010 - 12:53 pm - What a stunning couple! Great session Michelle!!!

05/24/2010 - 9:53 pm - WOW! They are such a stunning couple! Way to go ladies, another fabulous shoot at capturing the magic of love in the air...
05/24/2010 - 9:41 pm - Gorgeous. Nothing beats a couple in love in a field :).
05/24/2010 - 9:36 pm - love these. beautiful couple and session!
Here’s a bit of what I’ve been up to the past week……although it is of course starting to feel hectic and busy and crazy – I am loving being in the midst of it all! This next week is going to be another one with me behind the camera….Nevaeh’s ballet recital, an outdoor photoshoot of my girlies, a teensy baby girl, an uber stylish family of 4, and second shooting a wedding with Brooke. Whew!. I guess this means it’s time to start hitting the caffeine again. Hehehe!
Enjoy the sneaks and make sure to stay tuned in for full posts:)
A wonderful engagement session I got to shoot with Brooke
Family session of four of the nicest kids around….a surprise for Father’s Day!
My first wedding of the year….it was hot and very sunny – these two rocked it!
Last but not least – a very chill baby boy. Easiest baby to date….thanks Evan!
05/20/2010 - 7:03 am - The bride and groom shot is perfection!! SOOO pretty!
05/18/2010 - 12:23 am - stunning couple...ahhh...love. (i am so excited to get into my photos!). perfect family photo. love the bride + groom...stunning spot. and an amazing little boy who is totally adorable. what more could a girl ask for right?
05/17/2010 - 1:17 pm - Thank you so much Michele for photographing our little peanut again! As always you did such an amazing job and we can't wait to see the rest of them!
A bunch of my faves from the year…..there were so many images I adored it was tough to choose, but these were some that made me smile the biggest. Thank you all for workin’ it in front of my lens, and for having me be the one who got to capture all these wonderful little moments.
Michele
01/14/2010 - 10:32 pm - what a rock'n year!!! cant wait for 2010 loveliness!!!
01/14/2010 - 8:28 pm - Absolutely fantastic! You are definitely one of my top 3 favourite photographers in the Okanagan! : )
01/14/2010 - 3:45 pm - what a year. super fantastic! love so many of these. you rock. oh and thanks for putting my ugly face up there. hahaha.
01/14/2010 - 12:01 pm - You have some amazing shots, I love them all!
I’ve done it again……ended up with a fabulous couple who is kind, intelligent, funny and seriously smokin’ in front of the camera. Hailey and Damien, you both rocked it for us. Brooke and I were fortunate enough to book this great couple for their wedding in 2010, and we are VERY excited – if you’d had a sneak at the dress, you would be too! The shoot was the first time we had all met, and B and I felt instantly comfortable with them. Comfortable enough for me to trust Damien to catch me if I fell off the roof of a 100 year old cabin I decided to climb up….not one of my finer moments considering I didn’t even end up with a great shot from up there! Everything came together and we truly had a great time.
Thank you again for booking us; we are SO looking forward to your big day……now enjoy your photos!
10/27/2009 - 7:25 pm - love em. how fab are they in front of the camera. i am super excited for their wedding next year…we are going to have a blast!
