Erin + Gordie’s Elopement on the Sunshine Coast

September 10, 2020
Featured  ·  Photography  ·  Wedding

I first met Erin and Gordie last summer when they were in search of a wedding photographer and I felt like it was a little bit of love at first sight haha Erin pulled out her wedding planning book and we worked our way through her checklist and list of questions to ask. She was speaking my language. If you dont know by now, I have lists for everything! They are what keep me sane and organized.

This year has thrown so many of us for a loop and even though Erin + Gordie had originally planned on a large wedding at the Hitching Post in Ladner BC with about 150 people. They then rolled with the punches and planned an intimate elopement for their big day out at the West Coast Wilderness Lodge on the Sunshine Coast (north of Sechelt by about an hour) . Small and intimate weddings are quickly becoming some of my favourite days to capture <3 They’re filled with so much love that everywhere you look its something so special.

The West Coast Wilderness Lodge on the Sunshine Coast is breathtaking!! From their large deck for your ceremony to the rocky shores of the Pacific Ocean just a few steps away, to the stunning covered decks for the evening celebrations overlooking the bay. It’s absolutely stunning and being there with these two and their immediate family was so incredible.

Erin and I have talked so much over the last year that I feel like I got to witness my friends getting married and it makes my so heart full. They’re such incredible people, Gordie’s a charmer and Erin with her bubbly and infectious giggles. Aaaah I can’t say enough about how amazing it was to be there for their elopement.

Below are some sneak peeks from their elopement at the West Coast Wilderness Lodge, Earls Cove this past weekend.

Cass & Ziggy✨ Their wedding at Poets Cove was e Cass & Ziggy✨

Their wedding at Poets Cove was everything a small wedding should be—intimate, full of laughter, and wrapped in the love of their closest family and friends. ✨

From the gentle island breeze to the heartfelt vows, every moment felt personal and perfectly theirs. Small weddings have a way of making the love and joy feel even bigger, and being there to capture it all was an absolute dream.

Angela & Baron ✨ Golden hour in Stanley Park is Angela & Baron ✨

Golden hour in Stanley Park is already breathtaking… but pair it with Angela and Baron celebrating their soon-to-be “I do’s” and it becomes unforgettable.

The quiet trails, the glow over the ocean, and those little pre-wedding butterflies—it was all there. A session like this is the perfect pause in preparation for the big day, a way to soak up the anticipation and capture the excitement before stepping into forever.
Nakisha + Will There’s just something about the Nakisha + Will

There’s just something about the city at sunset—the hum of the streets below, the skyline glowing, and the two of you in your own little world on a rooftop above it all. ✨

Nakisha and Will’s engagement session felt like pure magic—intimate, bold, and filled with laughter that carried across the skyline.
