xAlex and Nadia’s June wedding was as unique as the couple themselves, complete with an epic windstorm, moody overcast skies, and their two adorable dachshunds. As the wind whipped through the valley, it added a dramatic flair to the day—ruffling hair and dresses, sweeping through the wildflower fields, and creating a cinematic atmosphere that made every photo feel alive. The Fraser River Lodge, nestled against the stunning backdrop of the mountains and the river, was the perfect stage for this one-of-a-kind celebration.

After the ceremony, we ventured through the property capturing wedding party and couple portraits. The overcast skies provided the most dreamy, diffused light, highlighting the vibrant colors of the wildflowers and creating a soft, romantic vibe. These are the moments I live for as a Chilliwack wedding photographer—capturing raw, authentic connections surrounded by nature’s splendor.

Surrounded by friends and family who had traveled from near and far, the day was a heartfelt celebration of love and togetherness. Despite the wild weather, the warmth and joy shared by everyone present kept the spirit of the day glowing. It was a beautiful reminder that even with life’s unpredictability—or perhaps because of it—love always finds a way to shine.

The Lodge’s picturesque setting is ideal for couples who want to embrace the natural beauty of the Fraser Valley. With its expansive property, the venue can comfortably host weddings of up to 200 guests, ensuring there’s plenty of space for both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations.

Chilliwack Maternity Photographer | A Pacific Northwest Maternity Session with Anthea + Brad

I met Anthea and Brad in Chilliwack, BC on a typical PNW early summer evening  to photograph their maternity pictures. This is was such a special time to be able to capture them together before they became parents for the first time.    It was a week before their sweet baby was due and Anthea and Brad were so excited to become parents.  Brad having grown up in Chilliwack was able to speak at ease with me about all our favourite local spots for summer fun and swore each other to secrecy upon sharing locations.  Anthea and Brad were amazing and up for anything... including climbing boulders and tackling spider webs in the forest and wading in the ice cold river.  As we finished up our session I asked them if they were up for one more location so we could get some gorgeous couple maternity silhouettes.  As we rolled up to my spot, they shared with me that they use to live just a few blocks from this location and often walked this trail, it was pure magic and had so much meaning to them.  The evening was amazing and the weather played nice and didn't let loose the rain from those ominous storm clouds till we were driving off.  Thanks so much for being so much fun and congrats again on your beautiful baby boy.

Chilliwack Prom and Graduation Photographer

Capturing the moments that matter in Chilliwack, BC.

Chris' mom and I grew up together in Chilliwack, BC, in fact we attended kindergarten together!  We were silly little kids and rowdy teenagers together.  We've grown apart and close together numerous times over the last 35 years but no matter what she is the one friend that I know I can always count on.   I have watched her and her husband raise Chris to be the upstanding young man that he is; an outstanding athlete, a hard worker, and a good role model.  He is just an all around awesome young man to be around.  To say I was totally honoured when she asked me to do his formal portraits with his girlfriend Alexa on his prom day is an understatement!.   Chris and Alexa were total and complete rock stars during their session and didn't complain once despite the heat, the sun and the mosquitoes!  I had so much fun with you both and am so proud of all your accomplishments Chris.  So excited to see where you go from here.  

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have always imagined.
