Camilla and David Engagement

Camilla and David are getting married this Saturday, after going out for nine years...only nine years, so it's now going full swing ahead.

Great wedding starts with great preparation. Jamie and Maricelle's wedding ended up that way and we really had a great time shooting their most memorable day.

I keep on telling my clients that there's no perfect wedding...unless you enjoy every moment of it. Wedding is always stressfull but if you know how to have fun, then everything gets easy and the mood becomes positive. Maricelle and Jamie did exactly what a perfect wedding should be, and so their fairytail has a happy ending.

Thanks guys for having us on board, we really had fun. Maybe I should not even mention the mouth-watering freshly broiled Mauii ribs and other great BBQ treats that were served. No, I won't mention the ice cream treat at this nice Gelato place near Venables and Powell (I think...I couldn't remember) either.

Congratulations, Maricelle and Jamie!

Brent and Bless Engagement Shoot

I had the opportunity of taking this picture after the soon-to-be-couple's rehearsal in Port Moody...and man it was quick. Brent and Bless had to go to Nando's Chicken for the rehearsal dinner. Anyway, I let them take off after taking a couple of shots for I know I already have the shot.

I didn't have time to prepare but I was so grateful that my clients were very cooperative and were so fun to work with. A little bit shy in the beginning but in the end I was able to get the most of it. It's always like that.

For me, it is not important that I have something to show at the reception. The best thing about engagement shoot is that come wedding day, the couple is already used to my camera, and I am already used to the couple, and it takes a lot of load off my work.

Tomorrow is their wedding day and I am sure when they see my camera, they will be posing naturally.

Thank you guys for giving me the time I needed, and congratulations!

A little note

Hi Melvin,

I just wanted to let you know that I really loved the layout of our wedding album. I admired all the pictures that you chose especially those captured and stolen shots. I watched it so many times. We forwarded the link to our friends and family, they all liked it. Thanks a lot for including our pictures on your blog.
