Vancouver Island Photography - serving Hornby Island, Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands & beyond
jennifer is a lifestyle photographer. Shooting mostly on-location & very often outdoors, she captures people's lives in moments - from wedding celebrations to family gatherings. She approaches her work in the same way she approach her life - with dedication and wonder, a sense of discovery and joy, and a good dose of humour to keep even the challenges light. When photographing events - weddings and gatherings - she stays in the background, capturing the moments as they unfold rather than directing the movement of the day. In this way, the images reflect the truth and spirit of the day. Candid and uncontrolled, the photographs speak of the people they capture and the feeling of the moments they hold. Even shots that demand a little organizing, group shots of family and friends, are arranged in an easy-going manner, with a spirit of sharing and fun.
jennifer takes a very natural, heartfelt approach to photographing babies, children, families - preferring to follow small (and large) clients around as they play and connect. Each session is more like a play-date or shared family-time, and before you know it, as you all settle into the fun, you won't even know you're being photographed.
jennifer is easy-going, full of life and fun, open and very approachable. Her style is modern, dynamic, celebratory and wonderfully creative.
Jennifer's Vancouver Island photography richly captures the spirit of ease, joy and beauty of island living. She has contributed many stunning photos to the Hornby Island Art Guide which are represented throughout the artist bios on this website. She is also the official photographer for the Hornby Festival and she loves capturing the many nuanced performances by the incredibly diverse & talented musicians, dancers and other performers. You can see her work on the Festival website galleries.
jennifer loves that cameras are so portable! She has photographed weddings across Vancouver Island, the Gulf Islands & beyond. Being a Vancouver Island Photographer offers her a wonderful opportunity to travel, capturing places and peoples' special moments wherever they live and celebrate.
