Felicia & Rich :: Vancouver B.C., Canada Engagement Session

My 3 most favorite things in the world are my Wife, my boys and maple syrup. I can't say in what order though. I loves the syrup. Yay Canada!

Went to Canada for a couple days a few weeks ago to shoot this. Everyone meet Felicia & Richard. They are awesome AND they like maple syrup. These guys love each other. Come on, LOOK at the pics! Like bread and butter these 2. How great is this, Rich will be getting his Ph.D. in 6 short months. Dude already has a Masters in Engineering. Show off. ;) Felicia has a Master in Hottie. True story.

Thanks so much for having me guys. I had a blast. Dinner the night before was wonderful. I had yam fries for the first time. Also, HUGE, HUGE thanks to Cyler of White Apple Weddings, (such a cool name), for help as assistant on this session. This guy rescheduled a flight just to be with us. All the behind the scenes shot were taken by him. THANK YOU CYLER.

It's Christmas EVE!!!!
