What a job I have!

Last week I did bridals for a woman in town for her wedding on the luckiest day of the year, 08-08-08. More about their wedding to follow later this week.

Meantime, here are some sneak peeks from Monica's wonderful bridal. Every one of them was taken at the stunning Westin Grand on Robson Street, with the oh-so-helpful Lisa paving the way.

Can you imagine a hotel allowing a bride up on top of their lobby's grand piano? The Westin did, and then some. Plus they kept shuffling the groom and all the guests out of the areas we'd next be in--because Tom, the groom, wasn't to see Monica in "the dress" until Friday. (Thanks so much, Lisa. Your assistance made the shoot a dream.)

There's a terrific shot of Monica lifting weights. In the shot with the Vancouver Public Library behind Monica, our poor bride-to-be up was actually four feet up standing on a cafe table! Ahhh, if only all my brides were so willing. Talk about game!

The lovely flowers--stephanotis and lilies--are by the excellent Library Florist, also on Robson Street.
