Candid imagery for the wildly in love.

A bride in a white dress holding a bouquet of pink and orange flowers, standing outdoors on a wooden deck with mountains and cloudy sky in the background, partially covered by a sheer veil.

If only time could stand still.

Capturing  your memories, just as they happened with authentic storytelling and timeless, artistic elegance; soulful imagery that makes you feel like you can step back into time to relive your favourite day. 

Two hands holding glasses of champagne and soda, clinking together outdoors, with water drops coming from one glass against a cloudy sky background.
Young woman with blonde hair, wearing a striped shirt and ripped black jeans, sitting on a textured white chair in a minimalistic room, holding a professional camera in her right hand, looking at the camera, and touching her hair with her left hand.

I’m Janessa!

I’m a Vancouver-based lifestyle and intimate wedding photographer, and this is so much more than just taking photos for me. I’m here to tell your story (the beautiful, the raw, the messy). Every chapter of it -the pre wedding giggles, to the sticky fingerprints on the mirrors in your home - deserves to be told for years to come.

A collection of recent work that makes my heart skip a beat.
