So many good times with these two! From the board game themed tables to the pinata cake (swipe to see what I mean) this wedding was a blast!
Whonnock Lake Centre is great for so many reasons. Aside from the beautiful location, it's a very reasonably priced and a great option for a wedding on a budget. You can also bring in your own catering or friends to help decorate. I always recommend hiring a day of coordinator but it's up to you.

Another beautiful wedding at Stanley Park! The weather really was gorgeous and I was so grateful to get to celebrate this special day with Julie and Jonathan. The whole event was so well planned out, simple, refined and tasteful. My favorite part was the take home custom coffee roast! Or maybe the candy bar... I think 90% of my body was sugar by the time I left!

June got off to a great start with Chris and Helen last week! The sun was shining, the lake was inviting and the laughs were non-stop. I feel so lucky to be a part of days like this, and I'm grateful that after 15 years of wedding photos there are still joyful couples out there finding me.
Congratulations!!! đ đ đ

I had a blast with these two exploring a friend's farm where they film lots of Hallmark movies. I can't say I've ever seen a movie made by a greeting card company, but if ever get around to it, I'm gonna look for this farm!
Looking forward to this wedding next June!!!

A beautiful day for a beautiful little wedding! Last weekend was my busiest with 3 back to back weddings but I truly had a blast getting to know Brendan and Mel. Their wedding was small, but elegant with photos first in the park followed by a ceremony at The Teahouse in Stanley Park. I always love getting to do weddings there, the service is excellent and the food never disappoints.
This year marks my 15th year in wedding photography. Kinda nuts how the time has flown by! I'm grateful that kind, joyful people continue to find me for their weddings.

If you've had me at your wedding in the last few years, you've probably also had Arnold! He has shot many, many weddings with me and we've always had a great time together. We're now both dads of 2 and it's been really fun seeing his family grow! Excited to see what life brings next for them.

đ¸ Capturing Alexis and Dev's wedding at the quaint Clayburn Village Church was a photographer's dream come true! With its charming brick walls and intimate atmosphere, it provided the perfect backdrop for their special day. Alexis's love for candid shots set the tone, allowing me to freeze genuine moments shared between their kids, Easton and Brooks, and the heartfelt exchanges between the couple.
In the small brick chapel, amidst laughter and tears, Dev's adoration for Alexis was evident in every glance, even if this wedding was already much larger than he wanted. They're not just partners; they're a testament to love's enduring power. Cheers to Alexis, Dev, and their beautiful familyâmay your journey be as timeless and cherished as your wedding day! đđ

Just wrapped up my first big wedding of the season with Bianca and Roberto, and what an unforgettable day it was! From the moment they said "I do," I knew this couple was something special. The love and joy they shared with their friends and family were truly contagious. But let's talk about the dance party at the end of the nightâwow! These two know how to throw a celebration. The energy on the dance floor was electric, with everyone letting loose and having the time of their lives. It was the perfect way to kick off my wedding season, and I'm so grateful to have been a part of their incredible day. Congratulations, Bianca and Roberto! Here's to a lifetime of love and epic dance parties! đđşâ¨

I tried to get ChatGPT to write this for me, so I might sound a bit robotic...
"I love looking back at the magical moment when Sally and Trevor exchanged vows amidst the lush tranquility of Lynn Canyon Park, with the incomparable Jane Halton from weaving their love story into an unforgettable ceremony. â¨"
I guess I'll have to stick to the old-fashioned way. I honestly had a blast with these two for the brief hour that we worked together. And in case you don't know, I just updated the look of my images ever so slightly. I've always wanted to keep it modern, but not overly trendy. Let me know what you think in the comments!

The first helicopter shoot of the year and it was a perfect one! The team at really outside themselves finding this brand new gem of a spot. How can you not love this green glacier water? Huge thanks to as well for connecting me with this couple. Congratulations!

I always enjoy taking family photos of my family! In fact, that's how my photography career all started in fact! See, Andrew (my cousin) and Cheilon's wedding was actually the first one I ever photographed. So it's fitting that as they welcomed Boon into their life, I was able to capture a bit of his personality. Honestly, he was a perfect subject! It was a real joy to connect with this growing family over Christmas.

Always fun reconnecting with old friends/wedding clients as they grow from a couple, to pet parents, to real parents. I'm lucky to capture the milestones and memories along the way!
The Chan Family / 2023
The last wedding of the season was an absolute blast last night!!! Derin and Pablo know how to throw an EPIC party and I'm glad I was able to be there to capture/experience it. I don't think I've seen more energy on the dance floor this year. Not only that but also the true emotion and joy from the couple was beautiful to witness. Congratulations you guys on finally making it official!

I was lucky enough to have a truly incredible day with Eric and Jacqueline last Saturday way up on top of the mountain! These two have been planning their wedding since 2019 and not even a global pandemic nor two acts of sabotage could prevent them from having it. And I have to say, it was truly worth the wait.
No detail was missed thanks to Jacqueline's keen artistic eye as well as Lauren and Morgan from Elyse & Co. and the whole amazing vendor team!!! Even the rain held off until the very end of photos and truly made the light and backdrops absolutely perfect. After years of delays, I'm grateful that these two held out for the perfect location and I can't wait to finish the rest of these images. Congratulations, Eric and Jacqueline!

These were some special photos this month because this tiny plaid outfit belonged to my brother Colson. Colson passed away at 7 months of age in February 1997, the same age that Wes is now. We gave Wes the middle name of Colson to honour his legacy and keep his memory alive all these years later.

Tis the season for pumpkin spice lattes, sweaters, and family photos! This weekend was crazy busy with 3 family shoots, and luckily, the weather cooperated! I don't really advertise family photos, but now that I have a growing family of my own, I've definitely grown to appreciate these photos more than ever. Also, it's a nice way to reconnect with friends and past clients who I often haven't seen since their wedding.
Mel and Michael come from opposite sides of the Pacific (Canada and Australia) and yet, they managed to form an amazingly strong and joyful connection together. The backbone of this connection was their shared Christian faith. Something I'm lucky enough to share as well.
I'm lucky to get to shoot weddings all over Canada, but there really is something special about getting to do one in your own backyard. The fact that they both brought their families together from around the world to show them West Vancouver was truly a real pleasure.

I can't believe it's already been a full year since these two got married! I wish every couple celebrated their anniversary by taking a helicopter flight to the top of a mountain. Maybe I should start recommending that more often...
Mike & Laurissa / 1st Wedding Anniversary
What a wedding this was! It really felt like I was just among friends the whole time. I probably haven't laughed this hard in a few months and I'm so grateful that these two chose me to capture their wedding. You really could not have asked for a better day or a kinder couple to celebrate. I also loved the fact that this wedding was extra focused on candid moments. I try to always focus on those, but they really gave me permission to lean into that and I love so many of the moments we got! Congratulations you two!!!

One of the best parts about being a wedding photographer is capturing families at different stages of their lives. We so often focus on brand new love, but there is really a whole spectrum. Take Theresa and Wayne for example, they've been together for 13 years, built an incredible home together in Langley and finally decided to tie the knot.
I had a blast at this one because it was really more about documenting candid moments, exactly what I enjoy the most. The whole day was more of an elegant garden party than a traditional wedding. Little moments like Theresa showing her 92 year old mother her dress to big moments like everyone going in the pond to the tune of "It's Raining Men". It was a memorable night!

These two are celebrating (almost) one week of marriage from Italy! I'm gonna pretend not to be jealous, but honestly, I couldn't be happier for them! Especially after so many years of travel restrictions, it's nice to see young honeymooners exploring the world. Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Kwok!
Clarence & Vienna / 08 27.23
I had THE BEST type of reunion last Sunday at Clarence and Vienna's wedding. I got to reconnect with 3 different couples that's I've photographed over the last 3 years. I felt like a proud dad and I've got the mustache to back that up!
We all had such a lovely time celebrating Mr. & Mrs. Kwok and it was truly refreshing to see them put their faith at the center of the day.
I'm already looking forward to the next one!

I had the distinct pleasure of capturing Minji and Kyoungsub's wedding on Saturday! It was so wonderful to witness the love between these two as they begin their new marriage in a brand new country. Kyoungsub is a well established chef and having worked all over the world, he now claims Vancouver is his favorite place. I don't know if he was just being nice, but either way I'm glad to have him and Minji here!
Congratulations, and thank you to for connecting us.

Last Tuesday, there was so much joy between these two (three if you include Bumi)!
Their venue, Riverway Clubhouse in Burnaby is one of my favorite venues, a true hidden gem with a beautiful building, thoughtful staff and even good sunset views.
Congratulations!!!!
Megan & Sèbastien / 08.22.23
Despite the rain, these two soldiered on and had a magical, misty mountainous wedding! From humble beginnings on a Facebook group to long distance dating for four years, these two were finally able to seal the deal on a classicly rainy Vancouver day. Maybe I'm biased, but I actually think the rain and clouds made the mood more magical. Congratulations!!!
Aishah & Christian / 08.09.23
My team and I had such a fun time with these two yesterday! They really made us feel so included and I'm so grateful to have gotten the chance to capture all the fun. The rain held off just long enough for us to grab some photos before the ceremony and after that, it was a non stop party full of fun and surprises!
Special thanks to the whole team at
for their hospitality and a big congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Yeung!

My Christmas wish for you and yours this season is that you have one day of not talking about COVID protocols, lockdowns or pandemics. Merry Christmas!
LYRICS:
This Christmas, got just one wish
Very simple thing that we all wonât miss
We just want to spread some holiday cheer
Sip some cider or an ice cold beer
Itâs gonna be great, itâs gonna be fun
As long as you donât mention Omnicron
CHORUS
No COVID Talk
Just Christmas tree rock
We really donât need 17
Updates from the CDC
All that we want
Is a nice snowy walk
Free from all that
Frick-ing COVID talk
Travel bans around the tree
You canât hang out with your family
No Uncle Bob, I donât wanna look
At the very long post you put on your Facebook
Iâve made my opinions, Iâm not gonna sway
So letâs just talk about anything other than COVID today
CHORUS
No COVID Talk
Just Christmas tree rock
We really donât need 17
Updates from the CDC
All that we want
Is a nice snowy walk
Free from all that
Frick-ing COVID talk
BRIDGE
And while I have your ear
Just let me make it clear
I wanna have one nice family dinner this year
FINAL CHORUS
No COVID Talk
