an intimate portrait of a bride & groom embracing on their wedding day, on vancouver island, bc

claire & will’s wedding celebration took many turns, from a weekend-long bash to a far-away elopement. Until one day their plans settled, close to home, surrounded by their families (& 1 dear friend), who traveled from many corners of the world to come witness their day. And it was perfect. The closeness & intimacy they all share made the world feel small, connected, whole. And i was honoured & grateful to be welcomed so warmly, into the circle of love & support that is their families. What a tribe!

claire & will, what a joy to see how your day unfolded. And to have been invited along to capture the moments of your celebration, all the love you both have within & around you. And what a way to walk into marriage, with such full hearts & so much caring around you. Blessings, all.
