It’s a pretty safe bet that this sweet couple, Grace and Kai, know each other from the inside out. The kind of knowing that can only be accomplished through years and years of friendship and love. Back in high school a thirteen year old boy met a thirteen year old girl and their story began. Friends until Grade 11, when Kai asked Grace out on a date. They became a couple at the age of sixteen and ten years later, these two grow stronger in their love each day. I so appreciate watching Grace and Kai interact with one another, their friendship and their love–it is such a joy to be around them. They’ve been engaged for a year and a half, and the wedding date is approaching very soon: June 27th. Enjoy the images you two and I’ll see you very, very soon!

P.S. I made my personal goal for today! Blogged by 3:00PM. Take notice that this session was just shot last night; yup, I worked my butt off to get these done before my long wedding day tomorrow. [Edit] Okay, I typed the last sentence at 2:58PM, but now it’s 3:05 when I got the post formatted. Fine. Get off my back okay?! :) See I’m just thinking of YOU blog readers, because this was I can blog the wedding first-thing next week. Have a beautiful weekend–a long weekend for you Canadians. Americans, too bad you have to wait until your Memorial Day next weekend.

One of the first shots out of the camera. They were both worried they’d be all stiff and not know how to pose. Umm, chaaa, that’s what I’m here for. You just have to look cute. :)

Grace was definitely watching America’s Next Top Model or something this week because she was great in front of the camera.

Attitude. Yep!

Ah! I loved when I saw this shot in my brain before I captured it. I love it 3x as much now that it’s actually captured.

The sun graced (oh! excuse the pun!) us with its presence last night and it was beautiful! We had to canceled the original date of Grace and Kai’s shoot a month ago due to rain. Boo!

This pose was all them. Fabulous.

I rarely post images SO similar to one another, but I love both this one and the one before. Don’t make me choose.

I saw these swings and I said, seeing as you two have been together since you were in middle school, I think swings are approriate. Grace and Kai are so fun and full of giggles. All for it.

Isn’t Vancouver a beautiful place? YES. It is. Incase you didn’t know the answer to that question.
