We had a blast with Amy & Ken at their portrait session. We started at the Round House and Aquarious in YaleTown and then headed off to Jericho Beach. You guys rock, you were so much fun and totally up for just about anything. Thanks guys for letting us take artistic license and be creative, we can't wait till you wedding day!

We made day to night with our super high sync speed and "Fancy" Radio Popper flash triggers!!! Love those things!







We love this area of the seawall, so much potential for awesome portraits! Above= Dan's shot... Below= Kat's Shot.... Taken at the same time!






Setting sun for superb light!

Veil shots are always fun too!

Just before the sun sets is one of our favorite times to shoot at the beach, golden tones and moody lighting make for some of our favorite shots!

We were in Nelson, BC for Simon & Aline's big day and we just fell in love with everything about the whole weekend away. Firstly, Simon and Aline are two super FUN and super AWESOME photographers and almost all their guests were photogs as well... no pressure! On top of great people, Nelson is a really fun and hip town to visit. We had a blast, hope you like the images.



Some cute old buildings all around downtown Nelson, and just minutes from the old fashioned Hume Hotel , a cherished Nelson landmark, where we were staying.


Right across the street from the Hume was the old Court House with a plethora of various backgrounds to choose from.






Two goofs....well one.

They had these unique rings made of tungsten carbide.

Underneath the historic bridge in Nelson.

Having fun with rings and reflections.

The service, outdoors and intimate. There was something unique at this wedding called a ring warming. They passed around the rings amongst the guests so they could pass on their best wishes.

Fun cake cutting times

A little retreat off to the woods for some creative shots


The evening finished off with a huge bonfire and laughs all around. Snapped this one with the smoke from the fire, a glow stick in front of the lens and a 1/64 power sb-26 off camera intentionally flared. They liked this one, being photographers themselves...

Congrats your two!

5 planes + 2 six hour drives + 1 twelve hour train = fun fun fun!

One trip, turning to another, and another... and somehow all of April is gone...
We'll certainly have a blast while we're away though.

Dan's leaving first on Saturday, bound for Toronto (stop #1) to hang with friend and excellent photog Dexter Quinto for a week of shooting for UFC in Montreal (stop #2). After which, back to Toronto (stop #3...well kinda) for another few days enjoying the local culture and hanging with other pal and super photog Felix Wong .

From There.... dun dunnn dunnnnnn...!

Off to New York City (stop #4...if you count Toronto twice), for a week of meetings, shooting, and Hawt Dawwggzzz. (how do you type a NY accent?) Anywho... Yippee!

From there, we're meeting up in Miami for a quickie VACATION!!! It will be a week of beaches, 30 degree heat (that's ummm celcius) and ink ...

Much needed because as soon as we're back, it's May and wedding madness begins, good madness though!

We'll keep you posted, stay tuned for trip images ;)

Best
