ESCAPING THE SNOW

March 1, 2011 – 12:56 pm

Well, we are about to escape the snow.  I actually can’t believe we have snow on the ground right now because, despite popular stereotypes about Canada, we here in Vancouver don’t often have snow in the city.  We like to keep it up in the mountains where we can visit it when we feel like it.  In any case there is snow still on the ground left over from the weekend and thanks to a previously booked family vacation to the land of sun we get to run away :)

So we will see you all in 2 weeks.

In the meantime, here are some pretty pictures from a quick snow shoe outting from about a week or two ago.  All photos were taken with a Canon G12.

Love on the Island - Vancouver Island Wedding Photographer

February 10, 2011 – 10:14 am

Last month we stopped over on Vancouver Island to visit some family.  Family that we love.  Family that is full of love.  Family that is in love.  These photos aren’t from a wedding, from an engagement shoot or really any special day in particular.  They are just from a place of joy - and I love them.  This is a reminder though, how many of you have photos together other than just your wedding or engagement photos?  Have you thought of anniversary photos or about having a session just-because you’re in love? Or, are there people in your life, such as grandparents, parents, relative, friends, who are wonderfully in love and need photos together.  Don’t wait.  Celebrate your love and joy.  Contact me if you’re interested at jenn@jennbest.ca

In any case, I just wanted to share this beautiful and adorable couple…. so in love.

A Beautiful Canadian and her Aussie Husband - Vancouver Portrait Photographer

February 8, 2011 – 11:55 am

I feel very lucky in my life, for many many reasons.  One of them being for the amazingly beautiful people I have in my life.  Those whose hearts are open to life and love and who in all things there is genuine care and support for what happens to us.  One of these amazing people is this beautiful friend.  She happens to now live a long way from me and though we haven’t seen each other in three years it always feels like no time has passed.  This is often how I define a great friend, one with whom, no matter how much time has passed, you can just pick up again and chat and chat and chat.  Well, anyway, I can go on and on.  All I want to do now is share these beautiful pictures of her.  One thing that always astounds me is how women don’t think they are beautiful.  I have had the privilege of working with so many beautiful women and they all become incredibly self-conscious about themselves in front of the camera.  And then when I tell them, with all my heart, they are stunning - they don’t believe me.  This will be leading me to a new project soon so hold on for that.  But for now, isn’t she beautiful!  Thanks Jess for being so great!  Oh, and I’m also glad to say that the cute guy in the leather jacket, her hubby, loves Canada and had another awesome visit.

CELEBRATING THE NEW YEAR - weddingbells sytyle!

January 1, 2011 – 9:41 am

WOW!!! 2010 is officially over and what a year it was.  This isn’t going to be the post where I reflect on last year, I may do one of those but this isn’t it.  Simply though the year held some of the absolute worst things I’ve ever had to experience and some of the absolute best.  It was one crazy wild roller coaster ride that I definitely have mixed feelings about. But, I have a feeling that 2011 is going to be a good year and is already off to an unbelievable start.  I’m so excited to share some of the best news I’ve ever gotten on a New Year’s - EVER!  Thanks to our AMAZING, WONDERFUL, FANTASTICAL, SUPERDUPER, FABULOUS, STUNNING, and AWESOME clients I’ve had the honour of being named to weddingbells 30 Most Inspiring Photographers for 2011 IN CANADA!!! WOO HOO!!! What an honour to be named amongst some of our countries best and by such a wonderful publication.  Again, thank you to all of our amazing clients (and not just from 2010 but ALL of our couples)! Without your wonderful support, confidence and beautiful love this would not be possible (wow, that suddenly felt like an oscar awards speech or something but I SINCERELY mean it - from my heart :P).  Congratulations to all the other wonderful and amazingly talented photographers.

To following your dreams and inspiration…

HOLIDAY HOURS

December 13, 2010 – 12:47 pm

Well it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas here in the Best household.  The tree is up (although this fresh cut tree does not smell like a tree anymore… do not get me started on how irritating that is), the decorations are on, the sparkles are out and the stockings are hung.

I just wanted to let you know that this week we will be working reduced holiday hours so we may not be as available by email or phone.  We of course are finishing up holiday orders still this week and those waiting for your albums to come, don’t panic - we will of course contact you as soon as they arrive.

As of this Saturday, December 18th the office will officially be closed until early January.  We will be out of the office in January so expect to hear back from us sometime in the New year, most likely mid January.

A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS and a HAPPY NEW YEAR to everyone.  Enjoy eating yourselves silly and drinking yourselves merry.
