Jason and I just got back from Mexico where we shot the wedding of one of our good friends Jen & Daryl at the beautiful Gran Bahia Principe Resort. We have known these two for a very long time and were so happy to be apart of their special day. We've been waiting for this day for a while now but it finally came after months of preparation and planning. Only a few little hiccups on the day but we finished the photoshoot with an awesome display of storm clouds which rolled in at the last minute. The photos with the clouds are the actual colour of what was there in the darkness. It was quite exciting when we first saw the results of a slower shutter speed to catch enough light and that beautiful magenta was what came out. This was our first time in Mexico and I will definitely go back and enjoy some more strawberry slushies on the beach! A huge congratulations to our friends and we wish them all the best in their new life together.

One of our couples this year, Jen & Peter, recently had some exciting news to share. They are opening a new addition to their already very successful restaurant Sip Resto Lounge on Granville St called the Refinery. It's a beautifully designed wine and cheese inspired restaurant where you can come and enjoy samplings of some of the finest foods from around the world. I particularly LOVED the goat cheese cheesecake. It's a dessert created by one of their own and it boasts a rich creamy texture topped with crunchy caramel and almond crumbles and served beautifully garnished with an Italian sour cherry sauce which absolutely makes the dish and tastes like nothing you've ever had before! I would highly recommend you go and enjoy a lovely evening out and bring a friend as there are some great dishes to share!

Cheers,
Jasalyn (I'm still talking about that cheesecake!)

Hey Everyone! We're so excited to be leaving for Mexico in a few days to shoot a wedding at the stunning Gran Bahia Principe Akumel Resort in the Mayan Riviera, a beautiful 5-star resort right on the Caribbean Ocean. We will be staying for a week and will be offering destination portrait sessions so if you know anyone who will be there in the area or would like to come down, send us an email and let us know, we're looking forward to capturing all the beautiful sunshine and warmth to last us through the winter!

Cheers,

Jasalyn

Party time Croatian style!
These guys know how to have a good time. With all the wine, dancing and entertainment you could not help but thoroughly enjoying Nina and Zucko's wedding. Everything started off with an emotional morning with Nina's family. Her mother looked so proud as her daughter stood in front of the mirror fixing the final touches on her stunning Lazaro gown. We then headed off to the church for a beautiful ceremony and then off to Gastown where a music performer serenaded the new couple right on the streets. All in all, it was a great wedding filled with good times had by all.
