Engagement Session

Crab Park & Beach, Gastown

Wedding

Bodega Ridge, Vancouver Island

Van & James

After being diagnosed with cancer nine months ago, James chose to stand strong, hair or no hair, and marry the love of his life Van.

James is the type of man whose presence alone would light up a room. His smile, sense of humour and positive energy is contagious. After meeting James and Van for the first time, we knew we had to do something special for them. Their amazing story and exceptionally positive attitude truly inspired us. In collaboration with Modern Affair, we coordinated with James and Van's closest family and friends to put together this uplifting video that was presented as a surprise at their wedding reception.

It was such an honour to be a part of their beautiful wedding held at the Bodega Ridge on Galiano Island. Spending the weekend with James, Van and their extremely generous and loving family, we were all reminded that the true beauty behind a wedding is in the love and strength that people can give one another.

We're so privileged to have met a couple like James and Van. They have truly reminded us what it means to live life to the fullest.
