Aileen & Nik – Belcarra, Port Moody, BC

Intimate styled wedding photography shoot ~ Aileen and Nik – Belcarra, Port Moody, BC. 1940’s vintage dress hanging in my closet; The inspiration of my recent styled shoot!  The dress was my Granny’s from her and my Grandad’s wedding in the 40’s.  It is in mint condition and I could not pass up the opportunity to photograph her dress.  My Grandmother, Isobel, and my Grandad, Herbert were both born in 1912 in Halkirk, Alberta and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. They were both in WWII with my Grandad as a tail gunner on a supply plane, and my Granny and her sister Helen working in an airplane factory in Port Arthur, which is now known as Thunder Bay. They married in 1945 or 1946 and had their first of three children in their 40’s, which was rare for that day and age. One thing I love most about them is that they took the time to be together and enjoy each other before beginning a family.
