Planning an outdoor Williams Park photo session in March is risky business. Especially when our British Columbia weather is so intensely unpredictable. Today, for example, was cloudy, sunny, drizzling, sunny, pouring, cloudy.
I’m going to say it: springtime weather in B.C. is as fickle as a PMS’ing woman.
Between cooperative sunshine poking its head into the party and adorable children doing a Conga line in the field, an Opa who will happily hold a pink purse with the hand-picked flower and an Oma who mimics her Oma, I posit that this was one perfect afternoon of sunshine and funshine and laughter and love.
Not only did we prove that everyone was all in one place on one continent at one time, but we also have proof positive that we have some not-so-newlywed lovebirds. Forty years of happily-ever-after and hearts bursting full of children, children-in-love, grandchildren, and grandchildren-in-love. I loved seeing the cousins play, the siblings laugh alongside them, and the proud grandparents relish every single moment of togetherness. Family is beautiful, is it not? Their Williams Park family photos were the knee-slapping, heart-warming, gut-laughing fun that is made perfect by just a splash of chaos and a hearty dash of love.

Each step had to be careful, deliberate. Slow movement was the only movement. By all appearances, the river had been covering our pathway not too long before we’d arrived and our shoes held the mud to prove it. Step. Ssssssluhzs. Step. Ssssssluhzs. The mud-meet-shoe made a sucking/slurping/popping/mucous-blowing sound. Step. Ssssssluhzs. Step. Ssssssluhzs. But the mud…
Devin and Callie’s family photos are proof that it is possible to have (successful and frameable) family photos in twenty minutes and have fun in the process. Necessity is the mother of invention, you see. Between my unfortunately tight schedule in Jerusalem, Devin’s work responsibilities, and two adorably cooperative but increasingly hungry and tired children, the clock started ticking…
Girls, originally uploaded by jenniferpinkerton. What better way to spend Memorial Day than with four of the most beautiful girls I know?! And better yet…they’re sisters! So its four times the beauty, four times the humor, and four times the fun. I’ve wanted to shoot these girls for months now, so it was a blast…

How do you describe the coolest person in the world? I don’t know. Words have failed me. She’s witty. She’s beautiful. She’s goofy. She’s stylish. She is athletic. She is accomplished. She is cheerful. She’s the best DJ e.v.e.r. She could encourage a rock, if she tried. She is a traveler. A World Traveler. She…
Aside from everything else I love about being a photographer, wanna know my favourite part of being a wedding photographer? It’s the clients that turn into friends. Almost six years ago, Bradley & Jill entrusted me with their engagement photos in Leesburg, VA and then their wedding photos in New York State. Four-ish years ago we did an…
