The most epic sunset elopement

September 15, 2020
Featured  ·  Photography  ·  Wedding

I’ve got chiiiilllllls!!!!

Two years ago, I would have been sitting in my old office plugging away from 9-5. Today I have chills looking through moments that make me feel emotional with being able to capture.

To meet such amazing people who I now get to call friends, to telling a story using a form of art that I LOOOOVE and being able to share my passion through my work is beyond words.

I put together this styled editorial of an intimate elopement earlier this summer and it is the epitome of everything that I strive to create on a wedding day. A team of incredible vendors collaborated with me to create this vision out on the west coast and it was everything I ever hoped it would be.

We explored the shores of the Pacfic North West in West Vancouver and captured the most incredible sunset. The location is breathtaking and would make such an perfect location for anyone looking to elope on the coast in BC.

These two madly in love beauties made the entire evening so emotional, fun, passionate and EPIC!!! They’ve been married for 8 years (both of them had to refer to facebook to get the timeframe correct bahaha they both thought it was 6). They have such an incredible bond and I sincerely can not wait to get to spend more time with them!!!

Watch the video for some sneak peeks and scroll below for stills.

If you’d ever like to be a part of a styled shoot or model call, I randomly need couples for promo or mentor sessions so email me anytime if you’d like to be added to the list.

Thank you to all the contributing vendors on this styled shoot.

What if your “I do” moment felt like stepping into a real-life fairy tale?

Forget the grand ballroom and the pressure of a big guest list. Imagine a quiet, sun-drenched park, just the two of you, promising forever, this is exactly what Manny and Aadila chose for themselves.

Their intimate elopement wasn’t about doing less; it was about feeling more— more connection, more magic, and more of what truly matters. It’s a love story written just for them.
You don’t need a reason to be photographed. Not You don’t need a reason to be photographed.
 Not a birthday, not a milestone, not a ‘new chapter.’
 You’re reason enough—right here, right now
Ever seen a wedding photo and wondered, “Are the Ever seen a wedding photo and wondered, “Are they just naturally this photogenic?!” 🤩

Here’s a little secret: it’s not magic, it’s a perfect mix of authentic moments and intentional posing!

While I absolutely live for those unscripted, belly-laughing candids, the truth is, most couples need a little guidance to feel truly comfortable in front of the camera. That’s where posing comes in!

Posing isn’t about stiff, unnatural smiles. It’s about giving you gentle prompts and directions that help you connect with each other and look your absolute best. Think of it as a little secret language we’ll learn together! It helps create those stunning, magazine-worthy portraits while still making you feel like yourselves.

So yes, I’ll capture all the sweet, spontaneous moments, but I’ll also be your personal hype girl, helping you nail those timeless photos you’ll cherish forever.
