VANCOUVER ISLAND COUPLES PHOTOSHOOT
Maybe you are celebrating a brand new connection or maybe you've got a love that has stood the test of time, or maybe you are starting an exciting new chapter in your love story (ummm, heck yes to surprise proposals!). Either way, I'm here to document your unique love story in epic places. You can count on lots of snuggling and gut wrenching laughs with your loved one, letting loose and being in the moment, and at the end of it all, photos that represent YOU.
You don't like posing? Good, neither do I!
Let's go on an adventure instead! Nothing makes the heart sing like a good warm hearted adventure (or maybe dancing to your favourite song on a mountain peak!). And nowhere beats Vancouver Island for finding adventures almost everywhere you go! The air here is soaked in saltwater and evergreens with breath-taking beaches, soaring mountains and ancient forests.
Wherever we find ourselves for your session, I want to capture you living your best life adventuring the way you love best...with your boo! "Adventure" is going to look different for everyone! Nothing posed, just you sharing a moment with your partner. Maybe that's an alpine hike, maybe it's a stroll on a beach, maybe its a sunset cruise on a sailboat (Yes, I offer that!), or maybe it's a picnic in the forest on a blanket of moss under a canopy of cedar....No matter the adventure, I want it to be an experience you love with the one you love! Adventure is out there...let's go find it!

What Clients are Saying...
“A 6-star rating would be most appropriate considering the experience we had working with Gina. From the very first interaction she made me feel like she was just as invested as I in creating the photos I was imaging for our home and memories. She listened and understood what I wanted. She went above and beyond providing us with additional information on visiting Vancouver Island beyond our photoshoot. She hiked with us to our location and gave us just the right amount of direction to help us feel confident in what we were doing in front of the camera, and also comfortable enough to be ourselves and really enjoy the process and the magnificent backdrop she brought us to. She was more than accommodating when I asked her to be my accomplice in a surprise proposal for my now fiancé. When I look at the photos she took of us, I am awestruck by the way she so beautifully captured the light that fell upon us that evening. My heart swells to see the way she captured the unique looks and smiles we all give each other. And now we have all of this striking photographic art hanging in our home that she produced of our family. Gina truly is a master at capturing light and love.“

“From start to finish, I knew I had made the right decision choosing Gina to capture our surprise proposal. I am new to Nanaimo and with Gina's knowledge of the area, she helped me select the perfect spot to propose to my partner. Our photoshoot took place during golden hour and with the plan in place, she lead us through the park taking photos along the way until we made it to the perfect spot. With Gina's cue, I proposed (she said yes!!) and after that special moment, Gina stepped back to give us a few private minutes together. Thank you Gina for helping to orchestrate the perfect proposal. We will not only cherish the stunning photos you took, but we will also never forget the part you played in this chapter of our story!“

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Gina for our engagement photoshoot in Vancouver Island, and I cannot emphasize enough how impressed my partner and I were with her exceptional skills and professionalism. From start to finish, she went above and beyond to ensure our experience was memorable and enjoyable.
First and foremost, her patience and excellent communication skills set her apart. Planning a photoshoot can be quite overwhelming, but she guided us through the entire process with ease. She actively listened to our ideas, preferences, and concerns, taking the time to understand our vision for the shoot. Her responsiveness to our queries and willingness to provide valuable suggestions made us feel reassured and confident in her abilities.
She skillfully directed us without making it feel forced or unnatural, capturing candid moments that truly reflected the love and joy we share as a couple.
One aspect that impressed us the most was her attention to detail. She had an impeccable eye for finding the perfect lighting, composition, and backdrop, resulting in breathtaking photographs.
We highly recommend Gina to capture your beautiful memories with love ones :)“
