CATHERINE + JAY - Capilano Golf & Country Club Wedding/ Vancouver Wedding Photographer

January 27, 2012 – 1:31 pm

Catherine and Jay had a really sweet, family and friend centred wedding day at Capilano Golf and Country Club. The spring rain didn’t dampen their spirits one bit and they celebrated well into the night. This couple not only has a big heart and great classic style but they are also uber talented and worked hard at their details for their wedding - Including doing their own reception flowers. They had one of the most beautiful tea ceremonies I’ve ever seen complete with a gorgeous chinese rug and chairs from their own home - such a great idea. And Catherine was gorgeous in 4 different dresses. Thank you so much Catherine and Jay for welcoming us into your lives and having us there to share in your day.

HEATHER + TREVOR : WEDLUXE FEATURE

January 25, 2012 – 11:54 am

Last fall we got the amazing honour of photographing the wedding of Heather and Trevor at the newly renovated Hotel Rosewood Georgia. We are so happy to be able to share this beautiful wedding. Many of you may recognize Heather from the popular reality tv series The Cupcake Girls. She is also co-owner/co-founder of all the amazing CUPCAKES stores we have here in Vancouver. That’s right the store where so many of our amazing couples get their delicious cupcakes and wedding cakes, and YES, Heather’s beautiful cake and cupcakes were from their store and made by their talented pastry chef.

Heather and Trevor are two of the nicest people we’ve ever worked with and they are so in love with each other. Trevor was truly smitten with his bride all night and couldn’t keep his eyes off of her - it was beautiful to watch. You really can see how much these two love each other, see their amazing friendship and the beautiful family they are creating with their son.

The night was crowned with gorgeous flowers from Evan at FLOWERZ, was filled with gorgeous stationary from the talented designers at Wintons Social Stationary, and all pulled together flawlessly by the talented Soha at COUNTDOWN EVENTS. There was lots of love and celebration being shared by all of their family and close friends, a true party that frankly Scott and I felt we could be a part of every night.

Their beautiful wedding was also captured by their wonderful Cupcake Girls film crew so keep an eye out this spring for when their wedding episode airs. Scott and I can’t wait to see it and will probably share it when we know.

Be sure to pick up your copy of this gorgeous issue of WEDLUXE on newstands now, or at any of the citys wedding shows or here with me when you book your consult for the 2012 season.

ENJOY!

Not only was this beautiful wedding featured in the gorgeous pages of the magazine but also on the WEDLUXE BLOG. Be sure to head over there and see EVEN MORE beautiful images from this wedding. Here are many of my favourite images that were shared on the Wedluxe blog…

Again, Heather and Trevor, Thank you for having Scott and I with your on your beautiful night. It was such a pleasure working with you and getting to know your wonderful family and friends. We wish you endless love and joy in your beautiful family.

Sunshine and Palm Trees

January 16, 2012 – 3:59 pm

We are back home in Vancouver now and already working hard on our long list of projects and client orders we have lined up for the New Year. I just wanted to say that we’re working on getting back to everyone who inquired while we were away and to those who we need to update and get in touch with - please be patient with us. There are going to be lots of updates and a few changes this year so keep your eyes open for those.

We had a wonderful break and went to the land of happiness, sunshine and palm trees for 10 days. It was wonderful. We attended a fabulous workshop and got to soak up the sun and swim with the fishies afterwards.

Here’s a slice of heaven I had for a few days. There will be a bigger post all about paradise soon.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

December 31, 2011 – 8:26 am

It’s the last day of 2011! Every year I am astounded at how fast the time goes by. Yet again, another year has just flown by. I remember being a teenager and complaining about how fast a week at summer camp had gone by when a counsellor told me, “just you wait, as you get older it goes faster every year.” Boy - was he right!!!

We have had such a wonderful 2011 and I’m so thankful to all of our amazing brides + grooms, wedding professionals, families and friends that we have gotten to work with this year. I hope your New Year’s night is full of warmth and laughter (and hopefully some bubbly). May 2012 bring you more love than you can handle and all the dreams that live in your heart.

Oh, and 2012 should bring back blogging to Jenn Best Photography - YIPPEEE!!!!. Stay tuned for new projects as well.

JUST A REMINDER. WE ARE STILL CLOSED UNTIL JANUARY 16, 2011. EMAIL WILL BE CHECKED PERIODICALLY. I LOOK FORWARD TO GETTING BACK TO YOU AFTER A MUCH NEEDED BREAK AND RECHARGE!!!

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

December 24, 2011 – 5:41 pm

It’s Christmas Eve and I have to admit, it doesn’t really feel like Christmas. That probably has to do with the fact that it’s raining and there’s no snow outside. That and it’s been a super busy year for us and we’ve been working right up until now (and yes I know, not blogging - oops). We’re so thankful for all of our amazing couples and families that let us into their lives this year. We wish everyone a safe and happy Christmas and a wonderful new year full of love and joy.

PLEASE NOTE: WE ARE CLOSED FOR THE HOLIDAYS UNTIL JANUARY 16 2012. Email and phone will not be monitored regularly. If you are inquiring about wedding services for the 2012 season we will try to get back to you sooner otherwise you will hear from us after the 16th. THANK YOU, we are REALLY looking forward to the rest

STAY TUNED in Mid January as regular blogging should resume after then - WE HAVE SO MANY BEAUTIFUL WEDDINGS and FAMILIES TO SHARE - CAN’T WAIT!!!

A MUCH NEEDED REST + A LOOK AHEAD

August 2, 2011 – 9:18 pm

This is just a quick note to say that we are going to be out of the office until Wednesday August 10th as we are in need of a restful break. We’ve been super busy shooting up a storm for the last 6 weeks straight and are taking the opportunity to relax and restore. So we’ll see you once we’re back. Although I’m giving you a heads up that we’re back and then we’re running away again to celebrate our upcoming anniversary

Here’s a pic to celebrate this trip - we’re headed somewhere coastal.

Also, here are some teaser shots to give you an idea of what’s to come on the blog. We’ve got more too in the works - these are just a few peeks at what we’ve been up to and the fabulous people we’ve been working with.

FLORENCE + RYAN - Granville Island and Locarno Beach Engagement Session - Vancouver Wedding Photographer

July 26, 2011 – 3:50 pm

Our time with Florence and Ryan was really sweet (and miraculously sunny :P). Florence and Ryan are really sweet. They met in highschool and now are not only engaged but they also work together. There both super smart, fun, active and caring. They are each other’s best friends and love doing everything together - and it shows - they’re so cute! They love japanese food and lighthearted movies. They will be celebrating their relationship and joining in marriage this September - can’t wait.

THINGS I LOVE ABOUT THIS SESSION: How amazingly cute and happy these two are together, the summery weather we had (I’m only saying this because if you didn’t know, we have NOT been having very much summery weather , I love the sun and all the light we had during this shoot, the shots in the marina that make it feel like we were shooting in California, the sand, the way the sand feels on your feet, the tall grasses, the red lady bug on the green blade of grass, the driftwood, the glow of the setting sun, the beautiful sky, the way the city looks, the love, the love, the love. Such a great time. THANK YOU Florence and Ryan!

RAJNI + BRANDON - Vancouver Wedding Photographer

July 15, 2011 – 8:00 am

Rajni + Brandon’s day was full of laughter, music and colour. It was a wonderful blend of Indian and Western touches complete with an Indian ceremony and a western reception, two outfits and two photo times - gotta love that. Both families were just filled to the brim with love for these two and there were soooooo many heartfelt and joyful moments through out the day. These two are so in love and this day really was a celebration of their relationship. It was such an honour to have been there with them and for them and to get the know their wonderful families. Scott and I always have so much emotion for our couples families, we both have big families and we always feel welcome. Thanks Rajni + Brandon for trusting us to to do our thing and for being so open with your amazing love. Oh, and did I mention that these two really really know how to work it for the camera…

PRISCILLA + BEN: Jericho Beach & UBC Engagement Photos - Vancouver Wedding Photographer

June 30, 2011 – 1:00 pm

Priscilla + Ben are high school sweethearts! They are both incredibly dedicated and humble people with huge hearts. They love watching movies and going on vacations together. The love to eat out and also have a soft spot for Reese pieces and Peanut Butter Daisies. Ben is athletic and loves animals and Priscilla is super stylish and loves hanging out with her family and friends. They got engaged on the beach in Mexico and will be tying the knot at the end of July here in Vancouver. I also have to add that the way Ben is with Priscilla is one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen. He is so devoted to her and just looks at her with eyes overfilling with love.

As a side note, we shot down at Jericho beach and I never knew there were bunnies down there - TONS of them. A fun addition to this animal lover’s engagement session

Enjoy some of my favourite images from their session - there are a lot.

THIS IMAGE TAKES MY BREATH AWAY!!! possibly one of my MOST FAVOURITE images ever. I love the love here *sigh* just perfection!
