Hey friend, I'm JanessA...

a bookworm till I die, espresso fanatic, wife & adventure lover. I’m an international wedding, lifestyle, and elopement photographer based in Vancouver, BC. Known for my candid, documentary-style approach, my couples feel comfortable and 100% themselves during our shoots. It’s my heart to tell your story, exactly how it feels right now in this moment.

She would be so excited. This honestly is a dream come true for me.

If kid-Janessa could see me now…
