Jeff + Camy Engaged!

For Jeff and Camy, school was never out. There are 5, yes, count 'em, 5 bachelor's degree between them, all from no less than Simon Fraser University. Now that they're done (well, almost... Camy has one more course to finish this coming school year), they're taking up a new life course towards wedded bliss. Now, if only Camy can convince Jeff to adopt her Shih Tzus...

Got this shot BEFORE I even gave them any directions for posing... very natural...
The bling shot... The ring that was in Jeff's possession for over a year before he popped the question - he said he wanted to take Camy by surprise so had to wait a while to throw Camy off from the big reveal...
Love brick walls...
A little texture for ya....
Jeff's been reading Dostoyevsky's since I've known him and he's mentioned this book a year and a half ago... I didn't know it takes that long to read it... hmmmm.... Another bling shot... as Camy casually tells Jeff, "now your bling will be all over the internet!"
Just in time to catch the last rays of the sun...
Dramatic lighting to end the day...
Can't believe we have to wait a year to shoot your wedding! Rico and I are looking forward to it. Don't forget to keep us up-to-date with the planning!

Thank you so much for helping us capture such beautiful moments onto film! We are thrilled with the photos, especially the sunset shot. We will definitely frame that one. We are impressed with your professionalism and how you are able to take such simple moments and turn them into amazing memories!

We are looking forward to having you take our wedding photos and share in our special day!
...Only 10 months and counting... :)

I like the one where you are lying on the brick wall! It would've been better if Jeff was in a Spiderman costume though.

Hey Jeff and Camy,

We had great fun doing your e-shoot. It's easier for us to produce these images when we've got really good people with genuine love in front of the camera. I'm sure your wedding will be nothing short of amazing!

Talk to you soon!

Hi Jason,

I'm sure Jeff would not have opposed to being in one! They were into doing anything we asked them to do! ;)

If we had a little Vancouver rain that day, then we could probably restage the upside down kiss as a kick a$$ engagement shot, eh?
