Fall in Tofino, BC is a magical time for intimate elopements. The crisp air, the changing leaves and the moody skies and beautiful waves make for a stunning backdrop for a special day.

If incredible architecture, pure love and stunning scenery sound like the perfect ingredients to an elopement, then this beautiful San Francisco Elopement at City Hall will be just what you’re looking for. This intimate ceremony was filled with queer love and stylish touches that perfectly captured the essence of this vibrant city.

Stylish modern details, a fall inspired colour palette and beautiful historic architecture made for the perfect backdrop for this beautiful gay wedding at The Permanent Venue in Vancouver BC.

There are very few things in life more beautiful than privately and intimately eloping with your person under the golden light of the setting sun in the middle of an old growth forest in the Pacific North West of Vancouver BC.  When Kaitlyn and Andrew first contacted us describing how they wanted the setting to feel for their special day, we knew the exact place that we wanted to take them and that was of course into the forest of Golden Ears Provincial Park.

The connection these two humans share is like nothing we have ever seen before, and when they decided they wanted their engagement session to be relaxed and effortless, we could think of no better plan than to take a beautiful sunset stroll through their neighbourhood in downtown Vancouver.

We have always been drawn to and taken inspiration from the beautiful landscape that is home to living on the West Coast, and when N + C suggested taking the family boat out on the water in search of some cliffs on Gambier Island to watch the sunset for their engagement session, we almost fainted with excitement. One of the most common questions we are asked when assisting our couples with planning and coordinating their engagement session is ‘where should take our photos’ and while we take pride in our growing list of beautiful local spots, It was the cliffs of Gambier Island and the stunning provincial park in Halket Bay that will stand out as being perhaps the most beautiful west coast engagement session location we have ever adventured to.

We have been photographing weddings and celebrations for many years, but this beautifully intimate, ritualistic and spiritual wedding on Bowen Island was truly a once in a lifetime day for us in the world of Vancouver Wedding Photography.

There is nothing more magical to photograph as a wedding photographer in Vancouver than an intimate elopement ceremony in the middle of an old growth forest at sunset. We have been to the top of mountains, by the water and in the middle of every field, but there is something inherently special about the sun setting through the trees of the Pacific Spirit Regional Park, and in our opinion the perfect setting for a boho inspired elopement ceremony.
