We had a great time doing photography with Dennis + Renee in Fort Langley, BC. The wedding party was relaxed and there were so many amazing locations in the historic town to take pictures. We managed to visit City Hall, Gasoline Alley, the old train station, several other buildings and Planet Java.

Like always, it was incredibly hard to narrow down the wedding portraits to a few to blog. Here are our favorites…

Jason and Emmy had their wedding this weekend at Northview Community Church in Abbotsford, BC. They had been expectantly awaiting this day and enjoyed celebrating their love and life together with family and friends.

The Future
by Emmy

I wouldn’t miss this for anything,
I don’t want to miss your smile.

Your time has come to stay.
Together we will face a new day.

I will love you ’till the end of the age,
I will love you until you are old,
And even when you start forgetting my name.

I will never tire of reminding you
That you are precious to me.

I can’t imagine my life without you.

The Bailey family came all the way down from Kelowna for their family pictures. We went to Fish Trap Creek and barely beat the long weekend rain. They kids were so much fun and had a great time at their session. Here are a few of our favorites…

We enjoy using infrared film in our portrait photography. Recently we received the disappointing news that infrared film has been discontinued so Jason’s been stocking up.

Xander’s long awaited sandbox took shape on Monday morning. I’m not much into the getting hands dirty sort of work, but I enjoyed putting the sandbox together. It was a huge hit - the neighborhood kids were in it before the last bag of sand were poured in.

Here’s some images:

Jason photographed Scott and Tara for their engagement portrait session at the farm where they live in Abbotsford, BC. We did some photos of them in the old barn and then headed back to one of their favorite spots in their field. We’re looking forward to photographing their wedding on 7/7/7. Here are some of our favorites…

Vienna and Max came for their portrait session at Fish Trap Creek in Abbotsford. Vienna brought her usual enthusiasm, vibrancy and cute piggy tails. Max brought his appetite and ability to nap through anything. Of course this made for adorable pictures of each of them doing what they enjoy the most. Here are a few of our favorites…

I had another leisure shoot, this time at a nursery which was quite a change from the used auto parts lot. The bright sun, blue sky and colorful florals helped to make some great images.

Thanks to Brenda at Tanglebank for letting me roam freely around her property.

Here are some favorites from the day:

The whole works may be viewed as under ’slide show’ on our website, www.rablog.ca. The password is ‘tangle’.

Mason and Ella met us at Gardner Park for their portrait photography session. Ella recently turned one and Mason is four years old. They had a great time being themselves and walking along the paths, throwing things into the water and running in the grass. Here are a few of our favorites…

The Redekop family was back with their new addition. We went to their beautiful home for Carter’s first portrait session and he even did some smiling for us. Here are a few of our favorites…
