Stanley Park Pavilion Wedding

But just before that, we got together for a couples session as the sun illuminated the water and the city served as the backdrop for this out of town duo. It was unfussy and real; they were open with one another and eager to try whatever struck our fancy. I snapped away, making use of a wide angle lens and incorporating bits of delicious analogue film for that extra touch of nostalgia and delight.

The next day, with Kaylee in her wedding dress by Sarah Seven and Luke in his suit by Paolini Garment Co., they reconnected under the azaleas. They hugged their friends and family. They declared their everything in front of the historic Stanley Park Pavilion, in front of those who had traveled from near and far.

“Tomasz is friendly and approachable, and working with him was easy and comfortable. He’s very good at going a bit ‘unnoticed’ while he’s working, in that our guests didn’t freeze up around him, and my husband and I felt natural when he was photographing us. Tomasz is definitely working within the premier league of his field—I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to work with him.”
