C+L= New Adventures, New Blog

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 05 Jun 2013 23:02:00 +0000

Our poor little blog has been sadly neglected these past months as the adventure of life took us in some new, unexpected, and exciting directions! But that does not mean our cameras have been tucked away - in fact, we've been shooting more than ever in both our hometowns of Vancouver, BC and Cabo, Mexico.

And beyond! This summer brings travels to Iceland, France, and Italy so if you're getting married there or are interested in one of our YOU+ME destination portrait sessions, drop us an email.

We'd love to invite you to explore some of the new work on our website and change your bookmarks to our new C+L destination wedding blog.

Right now we've sharing one of our favorite weddings from last year at The Resort at Pelican Hill in Newport, California.

And one of our favorite weddings from this year at the lush One & Only Palmilla in Los Cabos, Mexico.

And coming up soon: Love in the ruins with Erica + Erica.

Mexico Wedding Photographers

We love our Vancouver couples! Especially when they travel to beautiful Cabo for their destination wedding! Alissa + Luis arrived a week prior to the wedding to do some YOU+ME photos at The Office and the beach, and when they both got soaked rolling around in the waves laughing and kissing, we knew their wedding was going to be a whole lot of fun! and we were right! Alissa & Luis' adventurous spirit and fun-loving relationship with each other and their friends and family was such a pleasure to photograph.

Some of our favs below. Wedding design and planning by Cabo Wedding Planner Karla Casillas. Decor and rentals from The Main Event . Hair & Makeup by Neysa of Blanc Salon

What could be more fun than getting ready for your wedding in your own private villa?

So convenient how Villa Vista Ballena's bedroom decor matched the bridesmaid's pink dresses!

Gorgeous!

Who can resist a groom this handsome wearing shades and pink suspenders?

Two beautiful Brazilians getting married in beautiful Los Cabos, Mexico surrounded by all their beautiful friends and family.

Alfredo & Gioconda's weekend at the exclusive One & Only Palmilla was a feast for the senses! Salty margaritas, wind in their hair, & crashing waves at their beach party rehearsal dinner; sweet white roses, the giggles of little flowergirls, and the pulse of the dj's grooves in an Arabian-inspired reception ballroom on their big day.

What a treat it was to work with the always amazing Arianna at Palmilla and cinematography artists of Elysium Productions And special thanks to our Cabo Associates Romana+Mariano for their shooting.

Alfredo & Giaconda's wedding went by in a blur - here are some of our favorites from their day.

First a few from their rehearsal dinner on the beach.

The couple enjoy a stroll on the beach before the guests arrive.

Another perfect Cabo day for their wedding!

One & Only.

Congratulations, Alfredo + Gioconda!

Joyce+John=Lavish | China Wedding Photographer

Destination Wedding Photographers

When we photographed our first wedding almost a decade ago, did we ever imagine we would end up in...China?! Not in our wildest dreams. But this year we found ourselves working with a dream couple, John & Joyce, in the ancient imperial city of Xi'an, home of terracotta warriors, huǒ guō, and some pretty epic karaoke bars.

Everything about this couple's wedding was lavish, from the ceremony stage surrounded by Greek sculptures & roses to the abundant wedding day banquet & entertainment. But according to the dictionary, lavish not only means splendid and grand, it also means generous. And that describes John & Joyce perfectly. The attention and love they gave to their friends and family from around the world knew no bounds; they planned site-seeing tours, organized club-hopping, and shared meals with them every night (they even provided us with a personal interpreter!). The week almost seemed like a celebration of all the people they loved in their lives!

And with each other, all they are is giving. I don't think there was a dry eye in the place when John and Joyce said their vows with each other at the ceremony, describing how each of them gives the other encouragement, love and respect every day.

Some of our favorite images...

The wedding took place at the residential complex built by Joyce's father. I just love the ceremony canopy of ribbons.

Married!

We had such a great time exploring the ancient City Wall of Xi'an with John & Joyce.

From ancient to modern architecture.

My favorite portrait of the day.

Chris' fav.

And a little bit of nature too.

Back to the ceremony site for the reception celebration catered by the Xi'an Shangri-La Hotel head chef Fabrizio Aceti.

A night of entertainment!

Congratulations!

Thank you John & Joyce for being such wonderful hosts to us in Xi'an, and for sharing your celebrations with us!

Wind-blown sand dunes, a decadent private villa, the intimate luxury of Capella Pedregal - Orieta & Jay's Cabo destination wedding had it all! The Calgary couple were up for anything, and it was fun trekking out to some new desert locations to capture the spirit of Baja in their wedding photos. Some of our favorites from their day...

Orieta gets ready at Capella Pedregal resort.

Gorgeous!

Love the architecture at Capella - clean modern backdrop for portraits.

Capella's famous glass-blown hearts.

Dramatic vistas at a Pedregal private villa

My fav is image below on the right - can't beat a real smile at your husband-to-be!

Chris' favorite.

A little wilderness adventure - as I always say, if your wedding dress gets a little dusty, it means you had fun on your wedding day!

Back at Capella, a good luck kiss from her daughter before walking down the aisle.

Married!

Congrats to Orieta & Jay and hope to see you wild westerners in Calgary soon!

Emily+Gabriel=Devotion | Mexico Hacienda Wedding

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Sat, 12 May 2012 23:56:00 +0000

Mexico Destination Wedding Photographers

There are some couples who just remind you of how beautiful love is! The devotion of Emily and Gabriel, and the love of their families surrounding them truly inspired us. Their Mexico destination wedding was one day after our own anniversary, and we felt so lucky to join in such a special celebration of love & commitment.

Emily & Gabriel got married at what must be one of the most romantic locations in the Cuernavaca area: her uncle Paulino's four-hundred-year-old Hacienda. Hotel Hacienda Cocoyoc is just an hour south of Mexico City but walking onto the grounds of the former sugar mill feels like you are walking back in time. The hotel grounds include acres of lush gardens, an intimate chapel, and the remains of old ruins. It was the perfect setting for a perfect day. Some of our favorites...

Emily is such a beautiful bride getting ready in this sunlit room with her sisters and mother.

Gabriel waiting to see Emily.

One of my favorite First Looks ever.

Some classic family portraits - so important.

Elegant evening ceremony in one of the Hacienda gardens.

Married!

Mexico-style celebrations!

Vancouver Wedding Photographers

We love to return from Mexico to our first hometown, Vancouver! Photographing weddings elsewhere keeps us inspired and lets us come home & see our beautiful city with fresh eyes. We loved shooting Joanne+Trung, who wanted an urban feel to their wedding images, and were full of ideas, excitement, and elegance!

It was also great to work with wedding designers Cindy (our former Cabo bride!) & Barb of Serendipity Planners too! And always wonderful to have our loyal friend & talented photographer Tim with us for the day.

Some of our favorites...

Diamond pendant earrings, bejeweled Louboutins, and 4000 individualized hung crystals in the reception tent - Lacey & Robert's Punta Mita wedding was FULL of sparkle!

Held at the luxurious St. Regis Punta Mita resort and designed by the wonderful Mary Wright Shah of Dallas-based TODD Events, the three-day celebration was filled with light, love, and laughter, not to mention lots of good Mexican tequila as well! Some of our favorites from their day...

Lacey - exuberant, fun-loving, and simply gorgeous!

One of Chris' favorite images of 2011.

A celebratory mariachi beach dance!

I've seen a lot of mariachis since I've been in Mexico, but more in 50 all in one place? Fun!

Love all the decor and details - pink, purple and more sparkle!

First dance.

Texans really know how to party! Especially when you add sombreros and the amazing DJ Lucy to the mix!

Congratulations, Lacey + Robert!

Dale+Mai=Fun! | Todos Santos Hotel-Villa Santa Cruz

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 03:57:00 +0000

Todos Santos Wedding Photographers | Beach Boutique Hotel - Todos Santos

We love shooting in Mexico, and we love exploring new venues. So we were super-excited to discover what must be one of the most romantic boutique hotels in Baja, just a few minutes down the road from us! Our neighbors, and good friends Jessica & Mateo, designed, decorated, and run Villa Santa Cruz, a one-of-a-kind Todos Santos Hotel.

Imagine driving down a dusty dirt road, past acres of palm groves, deserted ranches, ancient cacti, and the odd cow, only to come to a golden hacienda set right on the beach. Guests convinced they must have been lost, must feel like Alice did when she fell down the rabbit hole and discovered a wonderland when they arive at this beautiful private villa!

Private and peaceful, and just over an hour away from the crowds of Cabo, Villa Santa Cruz is the ideal setting for an intimate destination wedding. And with its authentic Mexican details and vintage vibe (complete with a retro VW beach buggy!), it was a perfect backdrop for our YOU+ME wedding inspiration session with San Diego couple Dale+Mai. Could a couple be any more fun-loving & genuine? The connection between them was tangible - we loved photographing them!

Inside this boutique hotel on the beach, there are all kinds of vintage details, from antique brass door knockers to authentic mexican shot glasses for Villa Santa Cruz's own signature tequila.

Fields of agave+mountains+turquoise VW? LOVE!

A family of friendly dogs are part of the fun at Villa Santa Cruz.

Succulent florals by local Todos Santos florist Glitter Gal Jan from Pueblo Magico Weddings (link coming soon!). I love a bouquet that includes cactus!

Mai is simply beautiful!

Thanks, Dale & Mai!

And thank you to all those in Todos Santos who helped out with the shoot!

A YOU+ME session in Venice, Italy, the Floating City, to commemorate your wedding? What a great idea! We met the wonderful Ashley+Jason in one of Europe's most romantic places to celebrate their one-year anniversary. Ashley even brought along the custom-designed white beaded wedding gown she originally planned to wear for her reception. Here are a few of our favorites from our time with them in magical, fantastical Venezia.

Gabriela+Vincenzo=Amore | Italy Destination Wedding

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 00:57:00 +0000

Destination Wedding Photographer

A beautiful couple married in a beautiful setting! California bride Gabriela & B.C. groom Vincenzo chose a fifteen-hundred year-old village perched on a mountainside overlooking the Amalfi Coast as the location for their destination wedding.

Centuries-old villas, minstrels playing music in the town square, the smell of lemon groves, and the azure blue of the Mediterranean...Ravello is as romantic as it sounds! Is it possible a wedding in Italy makes the couple even more in love? So it seemed as Gabriela and Vincenzo floated through their ceremony in the classic Duomo and their joyous outdoor reception at the luxurious Hotel Caruso.

Some of our favourites from G+V's Italy destination wedding.

Gabriela - elegant & beautiful!And check out those shoes!

One very happy groom.

Gabriela & Vincenzo have barely spent a day apart since they first met so it was only natural they would get ready together & enjoy some time together before the ceremony.

We loved shooting at the historic Villa Rufolo

Married!

Love the Italian tradition of a parade through the town after the ceremony to the reception!

Orchids & ribbons at the reception.

Chris' favourite.

My favourite!

Congratulations, Gabriela & Vincenzo!

We had tons of fun photographing Natasha & Nima - how could we not become fast friends with two happy, beautiful, doctors in love? Especially when they're up for some bike-riding and some end of the evening margaritas & Mexican food!

Here are some favourites from their engagement YOU+ME session. Can't wait to see you in Cabo in a few months!

Judy+Tung=Sweet | Vancouver Wedding Photographers

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 20:35:00 +0000

Vancouver Wedding Photographers

Remember when you were in grade four and your mom used to ask you if a boy was "sweet on you"? It sounds so innocent & old-fashioned, but it's the phrase that comes to mind thinking of Judy &Tung. Though they've been together for ages, it's like they still have a school-yard crush on each other - they giggle when they look at each other, they blush at each other's compliments, they squeeze hands surreptitiously beneath the table. Their wedding was full of sweetness and light, and it was such a pleasure to photograph it.

Some of our favs from the day.

Starting off the day with sparkle!

Judy, her bridesmaids and her two angel-winged flower girls get ready.

Judy's gifts to Tung - groom socks & a groom watch.

Brock House - always a classic location for a wedding.

I love Judy's expression here.

Married!

Judy is such a beautiful bride.

Gorgeous florals by Gloria at Flower Factory.

A little extra sweetness :)

Shiang Garden was transformed by planner Alicia Keats and her team at DreamGroup.

So many great moments at the reception. Like this one.

And this one.

First Dance.

And a sneak out up for a final night shot. Congratulations J+T!
