Going into 2012, I had no idea what to expect. Sure it has been a year of many ups and downs – more downs than ups it often felt like… but the good kicked its ass. Hard.

2012 BC Wedding Awards | Best Wedding Detail Photograph.

Wednesday, November 28th marked the 3rd Annual Professional BC Wedding Awards. Last year I had the privilege of attending as a guest for the first time, not really knowing anyone in the industry (except for Michael Wachniak, who thankfully invited me!).. but what a difference a year can make! I’ve been lucky to get to know some talented individuals throughout this year and a lot of them have become great mentors and friends.

angelo + carla | stanley park seawall engagement.

A handful of my favourite shots I took while assisting Michael Wachniak at the Stanley Park Seawall in downtown Vancouver – t’was a beautiful night.

peter + jessica | lighthouse park engagement.

Random Fact of the Day: I have a black belt in Meibukan Goju Ryu Karate – the same style practiced in the original Karate Kid movies.. random I know..

Where does this lead us? This is how I met Jessica, through my sister, who also has a black belt in karate. Don’t mess with us. :)

Fast forward to Jessica and Peter. When I heard they wanted me as their photographer for their wedding, I was stoked. These two are awesome, and we had a blast at Lighthouse Park in North Vancouver. The wedding is in a little over a week away and I am ready to smash it. HI YA!

marta + zaw | cecil green park house wedding.

This handful of frames comes courtesy of a wedding I helped Michael Wachniak with at the beginning of June. It was the first of his own wedding season, and as always, it was a blast shooting with him – looking forward to the rest of the summer! Oh, and I also got to meet and work with Geoff and Naomi of Weddings in Motion – so many cool people at one place and one time – epic.

kristal + makis | corfu monastery | portrait.

The next day after the gigantic Greek wedding we took a small boat out to K&M’s favourite spot in Corfu – a little deserted island called Keradikia, for some intimate shots around an old monestary.

Awesome time with Sachin Khona shooting this as well. Thanks for coming along brotha!
