I have been so excited to post photos from my recent Tofino wedding this past September. I knew that my photos would be featured on the Snippet and Ink Wedding Inspiration Blog, so I wanted to wait until then to share my wedding with you all. Please take a look at our feature currently on...
Yes…I finally got married! After nearly 10 years with my partner, Karen, and 6 years of engagement with mutually no desire to plan a wedding, we decided that a beach elopement was so “us”! Having fallen in love with Tofino on vacation a few years back, we knew that it was the perfect setting for...
My sister got married!!! My older sister Catherine has made it official, marrying her main squeeze, Jason, in a beautiful west coast wedding in Black Tusk Village, Whistler. The setting was gorgeous…a quiet community of homes and cabins nestled amongst the forest on the outskirts of town. As Cat’s maid of honor, I was on...
The day after Virginia and Sonny’s wedding, we all decided to forgo relaxing on the beach in favour of an artistic photo shoot in some authentic Mexican locations. We started the session on the beach, and then ventured into the town of Tulum, a market area, and ended with our favourite, a breathtaking turquoise blue...

With the sun shining and the heat and humidity enveloping us all, Virginia (accompanied by her mother)...
It was so exciting to head south to Mexico where I met up with Rowena and Tak, and their family and friends at the Barcelo Maya Palace Deluxe in the Riviera Maya. The ceremony was held on the beach at the very far end of the resort, which really made the location feel intimate and...
What an amazing week we had at the Riu Palace in the Dominican Republic! The first few days were spent scouting, and wondering if the rain was ever going to let up long enough to get in some photographs on the beach. As is usually the case with the weddings we shoot (knock on wood),...
We were recently in the Dominican Republic shooting Ashley + John’s wedding. The day before the wedding, we spent some time scouting the countryside for possible photo opportunities. It rained. A lot. Here are two of my favourite photos from the day.
The destination season has been kind to us! We’re back in Mexico gearing up for Virginia and Sonny’s wedding at Dreams Tulum Resort. It is beautiful here, sunny and hot, and the scenery is breath taking. We can’t wait to share the images with you! k + m
