L&A | Wedding Photographer Victoria BC | Parkside Hotel Wedding

The first time I met L&A face to face was during their engagement session. Self-proclaimed nerds who miraculously found each other online and suddenly realized on their first date that they had lived across the street from one another. They said it’s a good thing it all worked out, because that would have be awkward if it hadn’t! 

As soon as we met I knew that L&A would bring their authentic selves to our session and their wedding day. We spent a lot of time chatting and getting to know each other, and when it came time for their wedding we were well acquainted. When I showed up to begin taking photos, it felt like seeing old friends again. Their wedding day was filled with so much love and so many sweet quiet moments (and some hilarious belly laugh ones too). They shared little gifts that to some would be silly, but to them were sentimental and a nod to how well they knew each other (snickers bar, anyone?). They shared some scottish whiskey (a nod to their upcoming honeymoon in Scotland) in private before heading to their cocktail style reception which overlooked downtown Victoria. Their vows were impactful and personal, and their speeches were downright hilarious (dad may have threatened the groom with his life with 50+ witnesses, all in good fun). The highlight for me was the thank you for making these “two nerds look like s3xpots”. The night finished with dancing and laughter as the sun set on the city below.

Here’s a peek at their wedding which took place at the Parkside Hotel in downtown Victoria!
