  • Welcome to our humble e-blog

    Thanks for stopping by! We hope you find something useful for your own relationship here.

    We are a Husband and Wife Photography team, even though she doesn't shoot with me. We would not have a business and be able to serve our clients in the way we do if it were not for both of our separate passions and talents coming together perfectly in our business. We laugh all the time about how much we "complement" each other...which is pretty much the nice way of saying "You totally suck at the stuff I'm really good at!"

    But at least we know it...and we OWN IT!

    Please don't be a stranger, leave some comments and let us in on how things are going with you and your spouse! We really hope this isn't a one way conversation :D

    lol...(Lots of Love),

Grouse Mountain Wedding: Ryan + Michelle

I first met Ryan & Michelle over Skype when they were looking in to having me shoot their wedding and we hit it off right away! They are such a natural, comfortable couple, and I had the best time shooting their wedding. I even enjoyed the dance at the end of the night where I got to showcase some of my newly acquired dance moves that ended up splitting my pants!! At least that gives me an excuse to go shopping for some more!

Lisa Gregory did an AMAZING job decorating and organizing the wedding day, it was such a pleasure working with her!

Here are a few of my favorite shots from the wedding day…

Cancun Wedding: Ramnik + Bonnie

What an honor it is to be chosen to spend an entire week with a family, getting to know them all and getting to capture such a pivotal time in their life! Not to mention becoming an honorary BROWN GUY !! They even gave me a new name…Malkit;)

I fell so in love with this whole wedding, and had such an amazing time! It couldn’t have been more beautiful, and I didn’t even get too sweaty!

Here are some of my favorite shots from the wedding day…and we did a few other sessions on other days that I’ll post later as well!

You already know how I feel about this wedding! It’s amazing absolutely incredibly beautiful

Ramnik & Bonnie: Cancun Engagement Session

Case and point as to why I give additional hours on other days for destination weddings…so we can get killer shots like these!! Even though Ramnik wasn’t digging his beard that he had to have until after the ceremony, they ROCKED this session! Truthfully, it was more of a video session with the video guys than it was a photo session, but I got to get a few in here and there and I’m excited about what we got!

I can’t wait to share the rest of this amazing wedding with you…all in good time:)All in good time!

Holy cow, she is GORGEOUS. That second image? Stunning.

Vijay + Bella: Old Orchard Engagement Session

I got a facebook message one day from Vijay telling me that he popped the questions and that he really wanted me to do some engagement photos for them…obviously I was thrilled! Vijay is such a quality guy, and I know that they have both chosen well! Bella lives in Idaho…and that’s where they’ll be getting married, but I had my turn with them and loved every minute of it! They were such great sports with everything I asked them to do, and I am so stoked with how the images turned out!

Here is my recap video from their engagement session - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFQXESsNqjI

Here are a few of my favorite shots from the engagement session at Old Orchard Park and Rocky Point Park in Port Moody!

OMGOSH MATT IS JUST LOOK SO GOOD i LOVE IT AND yOU HAVE SUCH TALENT. It IS So AMAZING AND IS GREAT

Downtown Vancouver Date!

When you have 3 young kids it is hard to go on dates often, especially a FULL DAY date!! We’ve been wanting to just spend a day downtown for awhile and so we finally just made it happen and it worked out well with meeting a new wedding couple. We are fortunate enough to have some good friends that we swap babysitting with lots, so instead of using the babysitting for doing our regular office duties- we mixed business with pleasure and headed downtown to do some shopping! It was a gorgeous day to hang out together!

Our goal was to get Matt some new wedding clothes…he had great success. I got in a little bit of shopping as well;)

We ended our time with a late lunch at the Cactus Club right on the water. I absolutely loved this place.

Our view from our seats.

There is always work to do, but it is refreshing to go out and have a little fun every once in awhile together! Kid-less! My next dream date is to spend a full day at the beach with a good book  and suntanning. Matt: hint! hint!
