Chris and Gina are very talented, with an impeccable eye for composition, colours and detail. 1. Boudoir Shoot I did this with Gina a few years ago in the Port Moody studio, where there are several different sets/backdrops. She's professional but also very friendly, and quickly put me at ease because... let's be real...boudoir shoots could feel goofy. Gina taught me how to pose so that I wasn't all awkward. The photos turned out amazing - classy and beautiful. I pull them out whenever I need a little confidence boost =) 2. Wedding Photography/Photo Booth We were specifically looking for a photographer with a more modern versus soft/vintage style. We worked with Chris and I cannot say enough good things about him. We LOVE our photos - he captured the day/night perfectly. Our friends and family complimented us on how friendly and professional he was during the event. And when we looked at the proofs, I swear he can teleport. I'm not entirely sure how he was able to capture everything that he did... We chose not to do engagement photos, but took post-wedding pictures around town instead. We went to somewhat touristy/over-photographed places (my request - I wanted very "Vancouver" backdrops) but Chris managed to make our pictures look unique (I'm telling you - he has an amazing eye for composition). 3. Photo Booth We used their photo booth for a reception and it was a great addition to the event. The staff was friendly, their props are fun and they have a sparkly GOLD backdrop! 4. Baby Bump Photos I went back to Gina for my baby bump photos. Once again, we did the pictures in their Port Moody studio but this time I was sporting a giant belly. Again, she put me at ease and helped me pose. The photos turned out amazing! 5. Family Portraits We gifted a family portrait to my parents as a Christmas present. We just took the pictures a few days ago so I haven't seen proofs yet... but the experience was great. We pretty much just showed up and Gina did the rest - figuring out different group photo combinations, bribing my toddler to look at the camera, etc. They even have kid-sized backdrops/sets that are super cute. I'm excited to see the pictures.

They are right.

Thank goodness for Chris and his assistant for the day, Alex, who captured the moments of our wedding day that my eyes could not. They were the best. Showing up ahead of time, quickly staging flowers and arranging our bridal party and family. Finding the right moment to pull us away to capture the best light of the day. Effortlessly moving through all of our guests at a photo booth receiving line- best idea ever, by the way! No, seriously, I can't think of one thing that I would want them to do differently, except for find a magical time machine that would let us do it all over again! From our engagement shoot the month after Peter popped the question where Gina and Chris helped us stage an outdoor living room at the waters edge, to staging and preserving every little detail of our wedding day, they captured our memories like the pros that they are. I could not be happier with our pictures. Chris and Gina, thank you. I know you can't see my tears of joy right now as I write this even all of these months later, but they are there and they are real. You made me the happiest bride. xo

My fiance and I are extremely fortunate to have had worked with Emily Nicole. She helped me capture…read morethe surprise proposal I had imagined with her amazing talent. Emily is undoubtedly proficient and passionate about her work, which shows through her pictures! My fiance and I were on a week long trip beginning from Oregon to Washington and finished in Vancouver. Months leading up to our excursion, I was searching for a 'proposal' photographer in the area where we will spend the last couple of days of our trek. I had a specific look in mind, and after going through many photographers nothing matched my vision. At that point I came across Emily's page on here, I was somewhat hesitant from the number of reviews she had, however when i viewed her site, and social media page I was sold! I booked her immediately! Emily was extremely receptive to my questions and suggestions. She helped to ease my mind by sharing her experiences and going through different possibilities which made me feel more comfortable. Since she's a local to the area, she was able to handle everything I tossed at her. Even leading up to the 'huge day', she confirmed my final location and how she was going to set herself up in order to capture the right angles while staying incognito (she wore a black trench coat like Inspector Gadget and had like 3 cameras under it - it was amazing!). Capilano Bridge is a wonderful well-protected park only a couple of minutes North of Vancouver. This was the perfect place for a memorable proposal over their popular 140 meters suspension bridge. After the nerve-racking minute (She said, Yes! What's more, I didn't drop the ring!). She had the two of us model for her all through the park. She made us feel really comfortable by becoming acquainted with us as a team and suggesting the best ways to pose for the camera. Once Emily warmed up, you could tell that this wasn't her first rodeo (whatever that means); she would set up her shots by moving all through the bridges and platforms like a feline, while my Fiance and I remained there thinking about whether she would ever return. Haha, it was great! To sum everything up. We are more than grateful for the opportunity to work with Emily Nicole and couldn't have picked a better photographer to capture this special moment. She thinks about connecting with her customers and thus you feel good and engaged while on the photoshoot. The pictures you get a while later are proof of what an all-around amazing photographer she is! Because of her, we have some great photos that we'll be sharing with our loved ones! Much appreciated once more, Emily Nicole!

She went above and beyond to make our day special for us in so many ways. She flew all the way to Edmonton to photograph us, found a great second photographer, helped to plan a day-of itinerary, modified her packages to meet our unique needs, gave us guidelines for family and group photos, and helped keep us all organized and on time throughout the day. She gave us such a diverse spread of photos to keep afterwards and the dramatic style of her photographs and editing is remarkable. Not to mention she is super kind and patient. 10/10, would 100% recommend!

I booked the einstein party package with the upgrade. at the beginning - aside from the confirmation email- I had not been reached out. furthermore - I have to reach out to the owner on multiple occasions. my personal experience is they will not respond to emails. phone call seemed to work best. the night before the party I got an email of whom my party leader was( not two days prior) yes it is a minor detail but something that is clearly outlined on their webpage. the leader did not text me until the actual party time when she expressed she would be late. once she arrived there was still a lot of prep that needed to be done and she was not equipped to handle 15 kids alone. in fairness this is not a complaint of the Leader, rather the business and not recognizing that 15 to 1 leader is simply not enough. we had purchased an upgraded package and the extras were not included. the elephant toothpaste experiment was also not for everyone rather just 1 person ( and it did not work) in that upgraded package it came with loot bags and lets be clear- a plastic 2 piece plane and sticker is not what I thought would be included. after speaking with the team - they were not remorseful. they reimbursed be $30 for the missed experiments and $10 for the leader being late. overall, myself and the parents were incredible dissatisfied with the services.
