“I never expected to meet someone like Max so young! So when we hit it off in a Tim Hortons of all places it’s safe to say that I was surprised. We talked one on one for maybe a minute as we were leaving and I immediately went home and messaged him on Facebook - I wanted to know more!” ~ Emily

Read MoreFilm Noir Inspired Couple Session | Victoria B.C.
On the eve of the winter solstice, when the nights are at their longest, this session replenished my creative cup! Utilizing only ambient light, we told a story of an office worker and a boy from the wrong side of the tracks. A Capricorn and a Scorpio, a touch of “Greese” meets “Bladerunner.”

The last dying rays of light danced on the sand and the gentle warm breeze made Vancouver Island feel like a tropical island. It was so warm in fact, that I decided to get in the water for a better vantage point. So did Ariel (I LOVE when my clients are adventurous!) and Melvin was kind enough to humor us both.
