Live the Moments You Will Never Forget

Let them be captured honestly.

Years from now, it won't be the perfectly arranged details that bring you back. It will be the way light fell through the trees during your portraits. The tremor in your hands while getting ready. The laughter during speeches that nobody saw coming. The quiet pause between the ceremony and the first dance, when the two of you were briefly alone.

These are the moments that disappear fastest, and the ones worth preserving most.

Latitude 49 Photography is built around that truth. I photograph the way a film is made: watching how a scene breathes, where the light is moving, when to hold a frame and when to let it go. Every wedding is documented with attention to atmosphere, movement, and emotional honesty. Not just how it looked, but how it felt to be there.

the WEDDING EXPERIENCE

My approach is calm, observational, and intentionally low-pressure. During portraits, I offer clear direction so nothing feels awkward or overly staged, then step back and let the day unfold naturally around you.

The result is imagery that feels relaxed and emotionally true, rather than polished for performance. From the anticipation of getting ready through to the last song of the night, every part of your day is documented with care for the atmosphere, the connection, and the experience of actually being there.

Behind the lens

Coastal light shifts by the minute. Forests hold texture and depth that interior venues rarely offer. Open water changes everything about atmosphere. I've spent years learning to read all of it, and it has shaped the way I photograph weddings.

I'm the photographer behind Latitude 49 Photography, based in the Comox Valley on Vancouver Island, drawn to couples who choose to be married somewhere that means something to them.

My work blends documentary storytelling with an editorial eye for composition and light. Whether you're planning a quiet elopement on a remote coastline or a full celebration surrounded by your closest people, the approach stays the same: photographs that feel immersive, emotionally honest, and crafted with intention.
