Neck Point Wedding | Hayley & Casey A beautiful day at the beach? YES PLEASE! The wind was gusty, the pampas grass billowed, the ocean glistened and the spirits were high!

Empress Acres Wedding | Leanne & Andrew WHAT A DAY! We had the full JP team on board for this event - photos & video, and it was a GREAT PARTY!

Nanoose Bay Wedding | Jonah & Olivia When we’re shooting for a couple, there’s usually a few things that show us what kind of couple they’re going to be to photograph.

Beach Club Elopement | Derek & Katie Winter weddings on the West Coast are always a little bit of a gamble - am I right? I mean just days before Katie & Dereks elopement...it was "lightly" snowing. HOWEVER - February 22, 2022 was incredible, and not just because it made for a numerologists dream! It also felt like the first day of west coast Sprin...
