If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you'll know I'm a big fan of the outdoors, so I was stoked when Jenn and Alex said they wanted to go camping for their engagement session. With their wedding in Tofino coming up in just a few weeks, we knew we wanted to get this done asap and take advantage of the beautiful weather we've been having. Goldstream in particular is special for Jenn because she grew up coming here regularly with her granny ( known as "Alien" ) living pretty much right next door. Here are a few favourites!
Jesaka & Ryan's engagement session in the Highlands of Victoria, BC
Every so often I get the chance to work with old friends, people from soccer teams, elementary or high school, past jobs, and it's always such a blast to reconnect with people at a totally different stage of life than when I last knew them. I went to Esquimalt High School with Jesaka and Ryan, but haven't had much of a chance to see them since high school so it was really great to catch up both during our shoot and around a fire pit with some beers this past weekend. Little did we know beforehand that we would also be treated to a light show in the sky with the northern lights making a rear appearance in Victoria. Check out some of my favourites from this fun and relaxed engagement session in Victoria on a private property on the side of a mountain in the highlands. ( Fun Fact: In high school I was incredibly close to getting the exact tattoo that Ryan ended up getting in the middle of high back, the legendary Led Zeppelin record label's Angel from Swan Song records. I didn't end up getting the tattoo but it was cool to see what I had envisioned on Ryan's back, and as it was a pretty muggy night he was pretty comfortable without his shirt for a bit. )
