Brett & Shaina’s Elopement // Victoria Elopement Photography

Shaina emailed me around Christmas time last year explaining the vision for her and Brett’s elopement in Victoria and asking if I was interested in being a part of it.  I had to think about it for about .0002 seconds.  You have to understand that when someone emails me about an elopement I am pretty much always 100% in as I love, love, LOVE elopement photography but not only that – when they explain they don’t any standard bride and groom portraits and are looking for something a little more artsy and unconventional I fell in love with both of them.  Ok maybe that came out a bit creepy but you know what I mean.   Their wedding day most certainly did not disappoint either. Shaina and Brett were married at Birds of a Feather Bed & Breakfast overlooking the ocean on a super gorgeous July day with only a few other guests as their witnesses.  The witnesses were so lovely and happy to be a part of it, even hugging the bride and groom after and taking their photos.  I had to ask Shaina if they knew anyone there because it certainly seemed like it given their enthusiasm

For their portraits we drove to Fort Rodd Hill and wandered around exploring the bunkers and lighthouse.  All in all a pretty magical day.  And now I stalk Shaina on Instagram so I can see her adorable puppy they got shortly after the wedding who is sooooo cute!!!

I know that Victoria holds a special place in the heart of these two as it’s where Brett proposed and Shaina used to go to school here.  That being said I really hope that they come back in the near future so we can hang out and do some more photos!

Shaina & Brett – I wish you two the utmost happiness and that life is everything you ever wanted it to be.  Cheers to you two!
