Candid and Cozy Beach Engagement, Victoria BC

This adorable engagement session was pretty impromptu! I must confess that I met these people on the beach as it was getting dark, we had a little chat about music, and before you know it we are taking photos! The sunset was perfect, and their energy and relationship was so easy going and infectious. It’s funny how much you can accomplish in only ten or so minutes!

One of my favourite parts about wedding photography and portraits in general is just building connections with people, meeting them where they are at, developing an easy going report and then being able to engage in a collaborative way to get the photos we want. It all starts with establishing trust. A little rant for today! This may sound personal and almost intense in some ways, but I promise that it is very easy breezy and not really intense at all. All I really do is treat people like friends and create space for them to be comfortable being themselves!
