I'm Rae, and I've spent the last decade falling in love with this island.
Vancouver Island has a way of holding you and you never want it to let you go. My husband, our dog Rue, and I have built a life here that's quiet, intentional, and deeply rooted in the rhythms of the West Coast.
I'm drawn to slow mornings, long hikes, rainy afternoons with a good book. I practice yoga. I drink too much tea. I like getting on my bike, swimming in cold water, and trying new things. That same sense of curiosity and presence is what I bring to photography.
I fell in love with photography at seventeen, starting with film and a deep pull toward documentary storytelling—something that still lives at the heart of my work today.
As a Vancouver Island film wedding and elopement photographer, I’m here for the deeply in-love, the nature lovers, the seekers of beauty in the everyday. If you're looking for someone to document your story with care, warmth, and a cinematic eye, it would be an honour to meet you.
Picture this: your love story told through grain and light and all the little imperfections that film just can't help but keep. All the moments and memories, the ones you don't even realize are happening until you see them on film weeks later and remember exactly how it felt.
As we go through this together, my priority is simple. I want you to feel comfortable, taken care of, and like yourself the whole time (yes, even in front of the camera, I promise it gets easier).
I can't wait to get to know you + your love story. Let's make some magic together, on film.
