Doris + Trevor | Wedding

Just a note… as this was a 14 hour wedding, this is going to be my largest blog post of all time! I just can’t help myself… ;)

* * * *

The anticipation was high and all that could be heard was the movement of fans, the murmur of guests and the beautiful refrains from the guitar and violin duo in the corner. The sun beat down mercilessly and everyone did their best to hide in the co0l shade of the Hall of One Hundred Rivers.

There was a hush… and Doris appeared, radiant and beautiful, ready to walk down the aisle to Trevor. Their wedding day was finally here…

* * * *

The morning started out at the Granville Island Hotel for the ladies. First up was makeup with Sanae Okada.

Matthew May was fantastic for the hair. Not only was he super fun, but he also rocked an awesome shirt!

    Absolutely stunning photos! I especially love the dress shots and the girls getting ready. You should wear a T-shirt that says, “I make your wedding look pretty!” :-)

    Terrific photos. I love them all and couldn’t possibly pick a favourite. What a gorgeous bride and handsome groom!! Wow. All of the portraits are stunning. I love the cake shot taken from overhead… it’s not an angle you usually see and I just LOVE it!! The reception/dancing photos are terrific too… you always rock the off camera flash. And the ring shots? Wicked! Way to go!
