Frances + Jonathan | Squamish Wedding Testimonial ⁠

"Unreal photos Steve! Thank you so much! They look amazing! We had the best time and you captured it so well. You also just went above and beyond with attaching all the boutonnières, monitoring my phone, bringing us drinks after the ceremony, signing our marriage papers, and so much more. Thank you for everything!" ⁠
⁠
We always appreciate the kind words! ⁠

Planning a Whistler wedding? Build in some time for sunset portraits (even on the cloudy days). Not just for the photos (though they’ll be epic!) but for the chance to pause, connect with your partner, and soak it all in before the party kicks off! ⁠

20 Years | we recently celebrated two decades of doing life together! 🥂 

We took a trip down to New Orleans with two close friends (who have also been together a long time). One night as we were enjoying jazz and a bottle of wine, we got to chatting about advice we’ve heard (mostly at weddings) about what makes relationships last.  I love how poignantly our friend said; it’s finding the right person for you. 

The one you want to weather the storms with, the one who’s quirks are as endearing as they are frustrating, and who at times sees you better than you see yourself. For me, it’s also someone who continues to grow within our relationship, and individually. 

Who, 20 years later, I’m still falling in love with.

As we wrap up our 15th year of photographing weddings, there is so much to celebrate. 

We’d love to hear your favourite advice for a healthy relationship.

We love when there is light added to a wedding. String lights and sparklers add depth, lovely bokeh and motion to your wedding photos. ⁠

What are some other types of artificial light that you have seen at weddings? ⁠

Can their be a more dreamy elopement location than the @marincanto_romantichotel?

Cheers to Sea-to-Sky Gondola weddings! @seatoskygondola is one of the easiest ways to showcase the beauty of the mountains and the ocean to your wedding guests. The view is unbeatable, and watching the sunset from their deck with a cocktail in your hand, and your lover on your arm, is an experience that will be tough to beat. ⁠

Finalist in the Engagement / Non-wedding category of the @iwpotyawards 

Xavier + Aaron’s shoot started as the sun went down, and we shot through blue hour, my favourite time of day. It felt great to trade snowy mountains for a sandy beach. 

Special thanks to @parfaitproductions for showing us such a special beach with incredible sunsets!

A finalist images in the Couple Portrait category of the @iwpotyawards, Carmen + G eloped with @whistlerelopements. 

They are Britannia Beach locals, and chose to hike up the mountain they view from their home to say their vows. We love that they started the hike up Goat Ridge from their front door. 9 km and 1600m of elevation later, they slipped into their wedding attire as the sun began to set over the North Shore Mountains, and in the distance, their home.

One of our favourite things about hiking elopements is shooting well after the sun drops and the stars come out.

Special thanks to @i.do.with.dom for trekking up there with us to marry these two!

𝐇𝐢! 𝐖𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐓𝐚𝐫𝐚 + 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐯𝐞.
A wife & husband team located in Whistler, Canada. 
Since 2010, we have photographed hundreds of weddings around the word.

“@whistler_steve & I met when we were 14 years old, on the beach near our family cottages in Ontario. We started dating at 17 & after a decade of travelling the world & building @taralillyphotography together, Steve proposed on a snowboard trip to Whistler. (Little did we know, we’d be calling these mountains home a few years later!) We decided to tie the knot back were it all began, on the beach where we first met.”
- @taralilly 

𝐓𝐚𝐫𝐚 (𝐬𝐡𝐞/𝐡𝐞𝐫)
Lover of foggy trees, deep conversations & wandering through cobblestone streets, Tara is a romantic at heart. She is a dreamer & has a gift for noticing the beauty of the in-between. Between skiing & reading snuggled up with our cats & a cup of tea, winter is easily Tara’s favourite season. She has a soft spot for capturing idyllic winter Whistler weddings.

𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐯𝐞 (𝐡𝐞/𝐡𝐢𝐦)
Steve loves to spend days camping in the backcountry, on his snowmobile, or ATV. He’s constantly scouting new elopement locations to share with our couples, while exploring our backyard. Steve is an officiant & elopement planner for @whistlerelopements, as well as a full-time photographer. Steve’s calm demeanour and confident presence has earned him the title of ‘Bride Whisperer’ on many a wedding day.

𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬
We love that Whistler has a small town feel with all the five-star resort amenities. For a full list of our local wedding venues in the Sea to Sky Corridor check out our Wedding Venues Blog!

We are always open to travel & Tara based in Europe in the spring and fall.

We launched @whistlerelopements January 2020. Over the past four years our team has grown & we’ve partnered with Whistler’s finest wedding vendors to create some truly epic experiences! 

Whether you’re planning a wedding or elopement, we’d love to chat with you and hear more about your day!

Such an honour to win the Grand Prize in the 2023 International Wedding Photographer of the Year Awards! This feels like a win for the whole @whistlerelopements team. We love that the intimate weddings & elopements we create in our backyard are being celebrated on an international stage. 

“Mikaela + Mitch held an intimate mountaintop wedding in Whistler, Canada, on the unceded territory of Sk̲wx̲wú7mesh & L̓il̓wat7úl First Nations⁣⁣⁣. We took 4×4 jeeps up to an alpine meadow, home to a number of animals including whiskey jacks. (If you’ve visited Whistler in the winter, you may have seen these small birds entertain skiers waiting in the lift line by landing on their ski poles held in the air.) Just as Mitch began his vows, a curious whiskey jack swooped in and landed directly on top of Mikaela’s head. Mikaela’s shock, surprise and laughter were not enough to dissuade this bird from his perch. “I’m Snow White!” Mikaela laughed.”

We renewed our vows.

Or as I like to call it, The We’ve Been Together Half Our Lives Party!

@leahkathrynphoto’s photos speak more eloquently than I can yet. I’m still  trying to find a way to express the gratitude I feel for the friends who celebrated with us & the community of incredible humans farther away who truly see us, love us as we are & have supported our relationship for nearly two decades.

Leading up to this day I kept reflecting on all the different versions of ourselves we’ve been since we were seventeen. The challenges, the experiences, the growth & change that have shaped us individually & as a couple.

@whistler_steve, after loving you for half my life, I know the best is still yet to come.

it’s been a month of ocean sunsets. // as striking as the slashes of pinks & gold are across the sky, turning the ocean to ripples of silver; 

it’s the magic lingering just before the beach drops into darkness & we make our way home by the light of headlamps that I love most.

It’s one of my favourite things about shooting in the mountains, especially in the summer months, the blue hour that lingers above the mountain peaks.

November is my season for dreaming & planning.

A pause between our summer wedding season & the winter season. A time to re-fill my creative cup, carving out time for the things that make me feel grounded & inspired.

This year it’s looked like living in a bathing suit, quality time with friends, journaling, swimming, reading, beach walks + yoga. No set schedule, no have-tos or must-dos, just checking in with myself each morning to see how I feel & what I need. 

A month of following whims & chasing sunsets.

My favourite autumn days aren’t the sunny vibrant ones with flashes of red & yellow through the evergreen trees. It’s the dark moody days, when the clouds hug the sides of the mountains & you can curl up under a blanket listening to the rain on a window that make my heart skip a beat.

@picnicwhistler has brought that cozy feel to their rainy picnic setups & I’m in love.

It honestly feels a bit surreal to be sharing this, but I’m feeling blissfully optimistic that we’ll be spending a few months in Europe again next year. 

I can’t wait to create more magic with @theweddingboutiqueitaly in Italy 
& @filosophi in France! ✨ 

A note for those interested : we’ll be limiting our European bookings to these three months as we have a full summer season in Whistler ahead!

Agata + Randy // a seaplane vow renewal

Ten years & two adorable kids later, Agata & Randy decided to renew their vows.

Agata slipped back into her wedding dress & we flew up to one of most stunning lakes in the Sea to Sky! 
One of my favourite moments was when she surprised Randy (& each of their boys) with a new ring.

I loved hearing how their relationship has grown & changed over the last decade. 

Huge thank you to Shirley (@photoblographer) from @filosophi for planning & making the day run so smooth!

Meghan + Andrew // their day went from heli to hike as the smoke rolled through Whistler this weekend.

They said their vows at a serene alpine lake three years from the day they met. Capturing a piece of their love story was a dream.

Congrats you two!

every single time Steve photographs a wedding at the @audainartmuseum 
it takes my breath away.

365 days since Emily + Rob said ‘I Do’ with an intimate celebration and this amazing team of local vendors:
