Vancouver Island Wedding & Elopement Photography Blog

Dream Wedding Destinations: My Ultimate Photography Wish List

11/07/24

The Latitude 49 Photography blog is where inspiration and resources come together. Here, you’ll find galleries of real couples, planning guides, and reflections on the art of photography.

I share stories from Vancouver Island weddings and elopements in Tofino, Ucluelet, Victoria, Nanaimo, Campbell River, and the Comox Valley. Sessions on Hornby Island beaches, in Strathcona Park forests, and along the coast. Beyond the island, I write about adventures in Vancouver, Whistler, Kelowna, the Okanagan, and the beautiful Chatterbox Falls.

This blog is also a place for Canadian Rockies inspiration—Banff, Jasper, Canmore, and Lake Louise—as well as international destination guides. From Italy’s vineyards to Iceland’s black sands, from Greece’s islands to Ireland’s cliffs, from Mexico’s golden beaches to Hawaii’s sunsets, I share advice and stories to help you dream bigger for your day.

Alongside these real love stories, you’ll find tips for planning a seamless photography experience, advice for elopements, and behind-the-scenes notes from my journey as a photographer. The blog is meant to inspire, guide, and encourage—whether you’re planning a wedding, dreaming of an adventure, or simply looking for meaningful photography.

Every photographer has a dream list of destinations, and these are mine. Each location combines breathtaking landscapes with the chance to tell a love story that feels cinematic, intentional, and unforgettable. From misty coastlines to golden cliffs, these places inspire creativity and connection.

Banff’s alpine lakes, Santorini’s glowing sunsets, and Scotland’s Isle of Skye bring romance to life with every frame. Yosemite, Big Sur, and Joshua Tree offer wild, dramatic backdrops for couples who crave adventure. Across the ocean, the Amalfi Coast and Ireland’s Cliffs of Moher set the stage for elegance and timeless beauty. Closer to home, Tofino remains one of my most beloved spots, with its rugged beaches and Pacific sunsets.

These destinations are more than dream backdrops. They are places where couples can feel fully present, grounded, and connected to each other. That’s why they sit at the top of my ultimate wish list.

If one of these locations is part of your vision, I would love to capture it. You cover the travel, and the photography is my gift to you. Together, we can create something extraordinary.
