Alana & Warren and I had planned to shoot their engagement session in the spring – until the cherry blossoms decided to bloom about 2 months early, that is! These two are getting married in July, and managed to snag one of my most popular wedding dates of the year.
The session may have started out a tad stressfully with someone locking their keys in their car (cough ALANA cough) :D but Warren and a coat hanger came to the rescue.
Sidenote to make Alana feel better – I once locked my keys in my car too.
In the States.
While it was running.
It was pretty epic. :)
…on to the pictures. Once Warren saved the car situation, we started shooting at the Vancouver Art Gallery:
And then made our way over to Kits Beach. It wasn’t easy getting up in this tree! Worth it? I think so.
Alana and Warren were a breeze to shoot. Usually I have to direct a lot more – but they were so natural!
Instead of an engagement ring, Alana has an engagement pearl necklace and earrings. I think that’s brilliant – why have two rings (engagement ring and wedding band) when you can have one ring + something else? I’m thinking maybe I should have asked Adam for an engagement car. (My little pontiac sunfire has seen better days.) :P
The gorgeous pearls:
Oh Vancouver. You are so pretty.
So cute.
Aaaaand the sun goes down.
Thanks so much Alana and Warren; I had a blast hanging out with you, and I’m so excited about your wedding.
I hope you’re all having a super Monday!
